Ep 82 - Body Image: Photos, Photoshop & ...

About this episode

It’s insane how much we let photos impact our self-worth.  Whether it’s on social media, or dating apps, we are in constant search of the perfect image.  Tinx wants us to stop all of this and realize that photos are just…photos.  They do not define us!  Some are going to be good, some aren’t.  As Tinx says, they nothing more than “a digital representation of a microsecond in our lives”.
