I Got a Hair Transplant...
I’ve been keeping a secret for a while… About 6 months ago, I got a hair transplant!
In this episode, I talk openly about why I did this and the process that went into it. And I also talk more deeply and generally on the topic of self-esteem and self image and how the way we look affects our confidence in the world. It’s a great topic to dive into, and along the way, I cover lots of useful vocabulary and phrases too.
Episode Summary
Here’s a summary of some of the key things I mentioned in the episode about self-esteem.
🪞 Appearance as Communication
What we wear and how we present ourselves sends a message - to others and to ourselves. It's less about trying to impress people and more about aligning how you feel inside with how you look outside.
🤍 Self-Kindness, Not Punishment
There's a big difference between grooming or exercising to "fix yourself" and doing it as an act of care. The second approach feels lighter and is much more sustainable long-term.
