We live in a world dominated by social media, and we have access to look and follow people of all shapes, sizes, and looks 24/7. The “beauty standard” seems to always be moving further and further out of our reach, and we’re constantly being told “do this diet, buy this product” and then you’ll love yourself.This also means we are constantly comparing: comparing ourselves to that Instagram model we follow, wanting what they have, hating what we have, the cycle goes on and on. At one point, Erin Ren decided enough was enough, and ever since then, she’s been inspiring women to say screw society’s standards, and to realize that we are perfect just the way we are.In today’s conversation, Erin Ren talks about what it’s like being a professional hype woman to many, as a boudoir photographer that shoots her clients in their most vulnerable state. She also gives advice on how to be confident, how to help others when they’re not feeling confident, what it’s like being a first-time mom, and more.
