You Can’t Inject Confidence (The Problem...

ERIKA DE PELLEGRIN
About this episode

In this episode, we dive into the dark side of beauty culture with influencer Jadé Brycki, exposing why women are more insecure than ever—despite having more "solutions" than ever.


🔥 Is Botox actually making women feel worse?

🔥 Why is ‘self-love’ turning into a never-ending cycle of self-fixing?

🔥 Who is profiting from your insecurity?


Jadé shares her unfiltered take on why Botox, fillers, and the pressure to look perfect aren’t just beauty choices—they’re a bandaid for deeper insecurities. But what happens when we stop questioning these choices? Are we robbing ourselves of the privilege to age? Are we running away from real confidence and self-growth?


We’re challenging everything you think you know about beauty, confidence, and self-worth. This episode might change the way you see yourself forever.
