Allycin Powell-Hicks: The Problem with Pretty, Gebunden

Klappentext

Most of us believe beauty is about how we look, but Dr. Allycin Powell-Hicks reveals the real problem isn't your appearance---it's how you're trained to see it. Blending science-based research and personal experiences, The Problem with Pretty dismantles beauty myths from their roots and dissects what it really means to be beautiful. She exposes how our brains take shortcuts, latching onto tiny visual cues and filling in the rest with socially constructed ideas that have nothing to do with reality---and this is just one example of how our perceptions of beauty are warped.

The Problem with Pretty rewires how we perceive beauty. Drawing on years of coaching, Dr. Ally breaks down the biases that shape our self-worth. She sheds a much-needed light on the systems that profit from our insecurities and offers the practical steps we need to reclaim control and understand beauty. With humor and her signature straightforward style, Dr. Ally provides the tools you need to stop chasing pretty and start living free.
