Can a wedding truly be perfect, or is the idea of perfection an unattainable myth that adds unnecessary pressure? I sit down with Hillary O'Dell for the second part of this episode to dissect the term "bridezilla" and how it feeds into the unrealistic standards and systemic issues like misogyny and sexism that women face, especially during major life events. Hillary shares her perspective on empowering brides to embrace their desires without shame or judgment. Together, we explore the importance of shifting narratives around women's choices and behavior in the wedding industry and beyond!
Topics covered:

  • The concept of "bridezilla" and criticism of this term.
  • Unrealistic perfectionism and pressure on brides.
  • Societal expectations and beauty standards for women.
  • Feminist perspectives on wedding culture and women's choices.
  • The importance of empathy and understanding in the wedding industry.
  • Shifting narratives around women's behavior and desires.

Here are some actions you can take whether you have 5 minutes or 50:
