In this episode, Bijal gets brutally honest about cosmetic surgery, unrealistic beauty standards, and what it really means to make choices for YOUR body—not anyone else's. 🎙️ What We Cover:

We went there—from what it actually feels like to get a boob job, to losing volume after kids, to why everyone’s suddenly talking about BBLs again. We also got real about empathy, womanhood, and the weird pressure of looking “perfect” all the time.

This episode’s a mix of honesty, laughter, oversharing (as always) and just… being women figuring it out together.

Our Philosophy: Your body is NOT a democracy. You are the empress of yourself. Do what YOU feel good, as long as you're not hurting yourself or anyone else. And if someone has a problem with your choices? That's their problem, not yours.
