298: this is why I regret my nose job

In this episode, we chat about my nose job. Emma has been asking me to write a blog post about my nose job experience and finally, I did. Here’s the full story: No, you shouldn’t get a nose job (advice from someone who has had two).  It got so many comments I wanted to chat about it further on the podcast.

Stuff we talked about…

• I thought I had a ‘bad and ugly nose’.
• I thought the ideal nose was a small button nose. I thought fixing my big nose would make me the best version of myself. 
• Your uniqueness and your magic is the beautiful thing about you. Your differences are what make you amazing.
• If you’re struggling with a body part of yours, remember that there’s nothing to be ‘fixed’ with your body.
• The only thing that needs to be fixed is your sense of beauty, your thoughts around the word beautiful and what it means to be beautiful.
• If I can use my story of pain and regret to help someone not to go through with it, I feel like there’s a purpose to my journey then. Maybe I can help someone learn my lesson before they need to learn their lesson.
• If you consider any form of body-changing surgery, think about it again and everything that’s involved. You’re so much more than what you look like. You are your kindness, humour, creativity, compassion. You’re all of them.
