What's the difference between “Healthy” and “Hot”? We share what those descriptors mean to us, and how our definitions have evolved over time. We address the problem of hyper-perfected ideals in the media, the downsides of chasing aesthetics and metrics that don’t actually result in health, and we share some real-life experiments that can help you shift your own body-image ideals in a healthier, happier direction.  Episode Highlights Looking better vs. feeling better: Pursuing health (not just the appearance of it) for wise reasons (02:22) Redefining “health” both mentally and emotionally (09:45) What do we mean when we call someone “hot” and what’s that all about?
