Bonus Episode: Your Face Wasn’t Meant to Be Seen This Much!
We weren't meant to see our faces this much-or this closely. From front-facing cameras to Zoom calls and filters, modern tech has turned self-viewing into self-surveillance.
In this bonus episode, I explore how constant exposure to our own image is warping our self-perception-and what it's doing to our sense of beauty.
It's not your face-it's the tech!
Are. You. Ready?
