Let me start by saying...I LOVE this episode--am I allowed to say that? I’m a loyal follower of the patron saint of pop-culture Amanda Hirsch, more commonly known as @NotSkinnyButNotFat, and I may have actually shrieked with excitement when she agreed to come on the show.

We commiserated about anxiety and depression, starting antidepressants, and the rocky road of denial we both experienced. I asked Amanda allllll about Instagram etiquette and got all her do’s and don'ts. We dove into transitional periods in life and how some of the best ideas can come from our shittiest moments, not peaking in high school, the things that can still knock her confidence, and what’s REALLY going on behind her famous instagram account. 

Amanda is the founder and creator of the Instagram and podcast Not Skinny But Not Fat: your home for everything entertainment, celebrity gossip, and reality TV. Amanda has been able to build an engaged community that transcends pop culture by showing the highs and lows of her life as an entrepreneur, wife, and new mom living in New York City. 

You can find Amanda on her podcast Not Skinny But Not Fat, or @NotSkinnyButNotFat on Instagram.

Tell Me About It is the podcast manifestation of all the “off-the-record” conversations we’ve had with other women about things we’re taught to stay silent about -- from stumbling through our twenties, rejections, heartbreaks, fertility struggles, mental health challenges, mistakes, and the cringey shame spirals that keep us up at night. Host Jade Iovine and her guests challenge the idea of social media perfected lives and get very real about all the less-than-perfect and inevitable shitty moments we all go through. Tell Me About It is here to remind us that we’re not alone… and that the women we constantly compare ourselves to ALSO have lives that are far from perfect.
