What if everything you believed about success, body image, and being “the perfect woman” was actually holding you back? In this powerful episode, Kelly Schuknecht sits down with Tara Whitney, author of Truly Seen, to unpack the deeply ingrained cultural expectations women face—and how to break free. From boardrooms to bake sales, Tara shares how the pursuit of thinness and perfectionism impacts our careers, parenting, and personal well-being.
We dive into:
• Why women are applauded for overachieving and how that comes at a personal cost
• The link between body image, leadership, and self-worth
• How perfectionism shows up in everyday choices—from hair styling to PTA meetings
• What it really means to be “truly seen” and how to live by your own definition of success
