Love Hurts! A Story of 90s/2000s Diet Culture Impacts

Explícito

CW: Contains discussion of disordered eating, mental health, abusive relationships, and other similar subjects throughout.

This week, fellow millennial and author Genalea Barker joins the show to discuss her upcoming book “Love Hurts,” and how growing up in the 90s and early 2000s inspired the story. The book follows a young girl falls into issues with disordered eating, self-esteem, and toxic relationships as she navigates through negative influences all around her. Genalea shares how coming of age in the rampant diet culture of the 90s/early 2000s inspired the book, why the subject is still relevant today, and her hopes that it helps younger generations see things like weight, food, and self-love differently. And, she joins Kourtney and Clarissa on a trip back to 05 to talk early Emo days, music, and more!
