Jameela Jamil

I hit all the markers.

I made the money.

I lived in the big house.

I had all the stuff.

And I was like, I'm still suicidal.

And then I remembered, ah, Spain.

it doesn't have to be spain is with me wherever i go now and i really think that that was just a happier simpler time and i'm deeply suspicious of anything that encourages us away from simplicity because humans are fundamentally complex and interesting yeah and brilliant and beautiful enough without all this motherfucking interference jesus christ oh amen

How do you feel now?

About what?

About all of this, like having your life, your identity, your appearance in particular picked apart.

Where are you at with all of this?

Like, especially as like you've gone through a point where I feel as though we were both talking about body image eight years ago during the rise of body positivity.

And now we're back in a Zen pit culture and we're back in like

all of your peers having facelifts and having all the different things done.

How are you?

I still, I mean, it was, there was no outlet for you to have any control over your own narrative back then.

Like now you actually have a place where you can immediately offer a rebuttal.

It's really intense.

I think that was what shifted me into finding immovable shit, something that people can't take from me.

My inner peace cannot be taken from me.
