About this episode

For the first time we are making the Conversation original TV series interviews available on the pod. This is part of a miniseries featuring the first guests to appear on the show. In this mini episode we feature Alicia Keys. 

We begin our conversation discussing how women perceive their body size and age. Alicia has a beautiful outlook on how a woman’s body perception can change with insight and a historical view. We also discussed the birth of her son, Egypt, and Alicia explains everything she learned about breastfeeding. 


 


IN THIS EPISODE: 



  • [00:32] Alicia and Amanda talk about how women perceive their body size and age
  • [02:52] Alica discusses her body changing after she had her son
  • [03:22] Alica’s response to breastfeeding and what she wasn’t told
  • [05:52] How Alica came to choose her child's name
  • [07:26] Alica reflects on her trip to Egypt
  • [07:52] Alicia answers Amanda's rapid-fire questions



 


KEY TAKEAWAYS:

  • Vacationing alone can be liberating because you aren’t worried about another person’s happiness.
  • Women are hard on themselves when it comes to body size and aging. Women need to give themselves a break and look on the inside.
  • Before you melt down, getaway. You may not be able to travel to Egypt, but you can do a B&B in the next town.
