#75 In conversation with Joanna Kenny, cheerleader for spotty humans

I'm pleased to welcome this week one of the most inspiring figures of the acne positivity movement: Joanna Kenny! Joanna’s Instagram page @joannajkenny (previously called @beautifulbybreakfast) is dedicated to celebrating everything that makes us human.  The sincerity and determination of Joanna make her the personal cheerleader everybody needs! Joanna kindly shares her story about acne, a skin condition which has been a huge insecurity for her for many years. Sharing emotional anecdotes, her pursuit to clear skin triggered other issues such as irritable bowel syndrome. But the day that medical exams revealed Joanna was completely healthy, she understood at that very moment that pains were linked to a psychological frustration which was all the confirmation she needed to take back control. Step by step, Joanna has built her journey to self-acceptance by no longer meticulously concealing her breakouts and hiding her condition. Our conversation will also cover her choice to document her story on social networks where she shares tips to feel empowered and to go beyond what makes us feel insecure. Get ready to jump on to an emotional rollercoaster! Feel free to discover the wonderful universe of Joanna on her Instagram page @joannajkenny Acne Stories is a podcast that breaks the ice and raises awareness about a skin condition that matters.
