Can Thrifting Be A Form Of Self Care?

On today’s episode of Good Bodies, Emily and Lauren are talking all about thrifting and how finding a sense of style can both be a form of self care and body acceptance. Lauren offers up some thrifting tips for plus size shoppers and Emily delves into why it’s so hard to find the right fit when it comes to vintage finds. Then, they bring on guest Macy Eleni who is the author of “Second Chances: The Ultimate Guide to Thrifting, Sustainable Style, and Expressing Your Most Authentic Self” to share her valuable opinion and tips on the modern state of thrifting. Macy also opens about her history of disordered eating and how that played into (or didn’t play into) her love of thrifting and fashion. She beautifully explains how thrifting can be both meditative and healing while acknowledging how thin privilege can play a role.

Welcome to Good Bodies, a “wellness” entertainment podcast where all bodies are good bodies. If you’re still reeling from the toxic diet culture of the early 2000s (justice for Jessica Simpson) and constantly quoting your therapist, then Emily Lubin and Lauren Hope Krass are here to help you laugh (so you don’t cry). Diets can’t sit with us anymore but there’s a place at the table for body neutrality, body positivity, intuitive eating, and hot takes about which non-dairy creamer pairs best with our sharp cheddar cheese omelettes.
