EPISODE #01 – WITH SOPHIA THIEL
Am I beautiful? How the pursuit of beauty becomes an addiction
My first guest at BEAUTY WILLIAMS is strong in two senses: The great Sophia Thiel was a celebrated bodybuilder as a student, and immediately after graduating from high school she became one of the most important fitness influencers in Germany - and then she dropped out. Cut, pause, radio silence. Why she had to take this step, how she felt about it and, above all, what she's planning now, after her comeback - that's what I'm talking to Sophia about.
We had a really exciting, intimate and touching conversation: It's about Body control mania in school children, to Cyberbullying and about relentless self-control that makes you sick. Sophia experienced all of this. And yet: In this episode of my podcast we experience one Sophia Thiel, who is highly motivated to start her new, healthy life.
With our expert Professor Dr. Nadia Sosnowsky-Waschek from the SRH University of Heidelberg we shed light on the medical background for the addiction to supposed addiction Self-optimization. And we find out what role social media plays in this. Happy listening, Beauties. And don't forget: THE GLOW MUST GO ON!
