Rina Raphael Wants You To Know Goop Isn't The Answer
Original Air Date - 11/17/22
Rina Raphael is a journalist and author who covers health, wellness, and women's issues. She sits down with Bridget to discuss her new book The Gospel of Wellness , where she looks at the recent explosion of the wellness industry, the fads, the gimmicks, the marketing strategies, and what lies underneath it all. Rina is a reformed wellness addict herself, and became aware of the dark side of an industry that's constantly telling you what to buy next in order to feel better. They cover how liberal, affluent women in coastal cities and big cities have really adopted the aspirational reinterpretation of wellness, why they might turn to alternatives out of desperation because the healthcare industry is not working for them, how control is a huge part of the wellness industry, how wellness culture is driving people to extremes and making them more stressed, what overidentifying with your choices means about you as a person or a parent, and how aware Gwyneth Paltrow is of the Goop grift.
