She soon discovers ‘the cause’ isn’t as idyllic as it seems. Little does she know this is the beginning of a lifelong commitment to activism and her determination to create radical change in ways that include belonging, love and one's full self.

Why do women feel the pressure to look so put together, especially at Biola? Stick around to hear about what role compliments play, along with self-objectification, insecurity, and more!

Tune in to hear about Rachel’s post-grad experience, how she is processing her Biola experience, how she has found a community outside of college, and a whole lot of silly tangents along the way.
