Everyone has a dream. But sometimes there’s a gap between where we are and where we want to be. True, there are some people who can bridge that gap easily, on their own, but all of us need a little help at some point. A little boost. An accountability partner. A Snooze Squad. In each episode, the Snooze Squad will strategize an action plan for people to face their fears.

What happens when beauty, shame, and ambition collide? In this episode, Krista sits down with renowned couples therapist Dr. Molly Burrets to dissect the invisible burden so many women carry—the pressure to be attractive, accomplished, and "enough."
Ahead, they reveal hard truths about self-image in the age of social media, untangling where validation comes from and why it's never as secure as we hope. Krista + Dr. Molly bravely unpack the emotional armor women wear to cope with comparison, aging, and fear of rejection.
You'll hear powerful personal stories that illuminate how our earliest relationships shape adult attachment, and why "winning" by society's standards never guarantees true connection or satisfaction. This convo will shift how you see yourself, your body, and your relationships forever.
We also talk about:
- The science and stigma of cellulite
- How comparison + body image are amplified by social media
- The “reflected sense of self” + how to reclaim your own worth
- Why beauty + power are fleeting (and healthier sources for self-esteem)
- Navigating the double-bind: wanting male attention, fearing its consequences
- The difference between self-care + self-soothing (and why both matter)
- How childhood patterns + family dynamics create adult attachment styles
- Real talk on healing anxious attachment—alone and in partnership
- Outgrowing the “go through hell to get to heaven” relationship pattern
- The rising standards for women—and why finding a partner feels harder as you grow
