In this episode, we dive into the complex relationship between self-perception and the pressures of modern beauty standards. How often do we find ourselves picking apart our appearance, shifting from a simple "I’m not happy with this" to "I don’t want to look like this anymore"?

As trends come and go, our sense of self can be easily influenced by outside voices—whether it’s the latest social media craze or a comment that makes us question our confidence. Together with Catherine Maley, who has worked closely with many plastic surgeons, we explore how social media amplifies this issue and how we can reclaim control over our own beauty narrative.

Catherine and her adept team specialize in growing cosmetic revenues through innovative patient attraction, conversion, follow-up, and retention strategies, as well as training staff to be converting rockstars.
