Episode 76: Maryann Lorusso on Beauty Standards for Gen X Women

Maryann LoRusso has been a magazine writer for decades, and for 20 years worked in New York as a fashion magazine editor/journalist. She literally lived in that Devil wears Prada world and witnessed firsthand unrealistic standards of beauty and weight put upon women. Gen X women and even the baby boomers have experienced this first hand. This distorted version of normal has carried over to the fitness world as well. We went deep on the expectations the beauty and weight loss industry has put out there, and how trainers have a responsibility to help women understand that thin is not always healthy.
