Going Full Crone With Jessica Grose

  • Summary

  • What if we just stopped accepting the absurd beauty standards that society has created for women? What if we actually aged gracefully instead of just talking about it? That's what New York Times columnist Jessica Grose has decided to do. We chat about her viral article about choosing to "go full crone" in 2025, rejecting cosmetic procedures like Botox in favor of letting her face just do what a face is supposed to do. We explore how social media has intensified beauty pressures, the astronomical costs of "maintenance" treatments, and our attempts to model self-acceptance for our girls in this image-obsessed world.
