Former model and Beyond Beauty Project founder Bridgett Burrick joins me for a powerful conversation about beauty standards, body image, and what she learned from years spent inside the modeling industry.While Bridgett never entered modeling in pursuit of validation, her experience gave her a front-row seat to the pressures, expectations, and impossible standards that shape how many women relate to their bodies. Together, we explore the disconnect that can happen when appearance becomes the focus, why external beauty doesn't automatically create confidence, and how reconnecting with your body can transform the way you see yourself.In this episode, we discuss:• Bridgett's journey from international model to founder of the Beyond Beauty Project• What life inside the modeling industry is really like• The beauty standards that encourage women to view themselves from the outside in• Why appearance-focused living can create disconnection from the body• The difference between controlling your body and being in relationship with it• How grief, loss, and motherhood transformed Bridgett's perspective on beauty• Expanding our definition of beauty beyond appearance• Embodiment, self-trust, and learning to listen to your body's wisdomCONNECT WITH BRIDGETT:Website: https://www.beyondbeautyproject.comSubstack: https://substack.com/@beyondbeautyprojectInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/beyond.beauty.project1:1 Coaching: https://www.beyondbeautyproject.com/1-1-coachingDear Body Collection: https://www.beyondbeautyproject.com/dear-body-collection WORK WITH KRISTINA 🕊️ 1:1 Body Peace Coaching Personalized support to help you stop obsessing about your body and feel more peace, trust, and freedom. 👉https://www.kristinabruce.com/private-coachingOTHER RESOURCES📕 Free Guide to Body Peace:  https://www.kristinabruce.com/guide🌱Body Peace Video Series: https://www.kristinabruce.com/bodypeace-podcast 💗 Small Group Coaching:  https://kristina-bruce.kit.com/group-interestCONNECT WITH KRISTINA🌐 Website: https://www.kristinabruce.com/📱 Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/kristinabrucecoachThis podcast is for educational and informational purposes only and is not a substitute for professional medical or mental health advice.
