Embracing Aging: Breaking Up With Societal Beauty Standards - with Lee Zavorskas
Are you excited about getting older? Ordering a drink when you turn 21 is exciting, and renting a car at 25 is sort of cool…but how many of us truly embrace aging?
For a lot of us, the idea of getting older is something we either avoid thinking about or maybe even downright fear.
And society isn’t helping.
Today I’m talking with Lee Zavorskas about:
What she’s noticed as a Holistic Esthetician about the collective opinion on aging.
How society is pressuring people, and most often women, to somehow not age. And how that’s screwing us up.
Ways we can rebel against unrealistic beauty standards by choosing to embrace, not erase our faces.
How to handle ignorant comments about our aging bodies.
And why getting older is actually really fucking awesome.
About Lee:
Lee Zavorskas is a Holistic Esthetician and the owner of Holistic Skin + Tonics. With trainings from the best in the Holistic Industry, her approach is “less is more” with an age embracing mindset. Her work is centered on a no BS approach and “Embracing not Erasing Faces.”

When was the last time you felt like everything in your life is totally manageable. The pace of your life feeling both relaxed and interesting, having enough space for everything with time to spare.

Many of us are consistently pushed beyond our limits - at work, at home, in parenthood, everywhere.
This week, I’m talking with Lisa Robbin Young about:
How to define our actual capacity, rather than what the world demands from us.
Enoughness - what it is, and how to figure out how much is enough for us.
The Marginalization Tax and who pays this extra cost daily.
How we can honor our true capacity restraints while still living the life we want.
Why saying no to our friends more often can actually strengthen our relationships.

Lost in Translation: Understanding Your Fight Language - with Lena Morgan
Have you ever been arguing with someone, and the misunderstanding is so deep that it feels like you’re practically speaking different languages?
Well, maybe you are.
This week I’m talking with Lena Morgan about:
What the five Fight Languages are, and how we end up defaulting to our own language preference without even realizing it.
Why we seem to have the same fights over and over again with our partners.
The resolutions that we’re subconsciously seeking out during every conflict.
What your partner is wishing you’d do differently during a fight.
How understanding your Fight Language provides insights to both your strengths and blind spots during conflict.
How to argue in a way that doesn’t feel like shit.
About Lena:
Lena Morgan began her career as a midwife and for over a decade she helped people communicate their needs effectively, especially in high stress situations. Pulling from this, she developed the Fight Languages; a radical conflict solution.
