Go Love Yourself

Crowd Networkaudioboom.com
Welcome to Go Love Yourself! It’s the show where we’re all learning to love ourselves a little more 💖 Laura Adlington (left, 2020 GBBO Finalist) and her best friend Lauren Smith (right) grew up in the 90s and 00s when low rise jeans were high fashion, Bridget Jones was the poster fat girl and diet culture was rife. Now, we’re unlearning everything we’ve been taught about body image, acceptance and confidence, and this podcast takes you along for the ride! From self-love, to the other kind of self love (wink wink nudge nudge) we’re here to help you feel happier, more confident, and part of the best community on the internet. Join us EVERY TUESDAY as we talk about everything from diet culture to dating, mental health to social media, fashion and giving zero f***s about what people think..

Finding Your Colour Palette

About a year ago, Laura suggested getting Styled By Susie onto the podcast and Lauren was a bit unsure. Because when we hear the word stylist, we immediately think of someone who is going to tell us everything we can't wear. But Susie couldn't be more the opposite of that! In this episode, Susie tells us what colour are going to make our eyes POP and our skin glow and why finding your style means so much more than how our bodies look on the outside.

What on Earth is Going On???

We had to call in Felicity Hayward to find out what the f**k is going on with plus size fashion. The rise of ozempic, the return of 90s fashion, the announcement of the 36 ASOS Insiders with almost no plus size representation. It's leaving us all feeling a bit flat.
