À propos de cet audio
In this raw and revealing episode of The Dirty Dish, Diana Nguyen talks about a topic that has followed her for most of her life: her body.
From the moment her mum said the words “you are fat”, something shifted — not just in her body, but in her identity. Is it “just Vietnamese culture”? Is it generational tough love? Or is that language shaping entire lifetimes of shame?
Diana takes listeners through the rollercoaster of weight, confidence, and culture:
– dancing to love her body
– gym memberships, BFT, F45 and every diet trend under the sun
– cheering for Brazilian grandmas on the beach who flaunt bikinis like medals of honour
She asks the big questions — not with judgement, but with humour and curiosity:
💭 What does body positivity actually mean?
💭 Is confidence real, or is it body courage — loving yourself even when the world doesn’t?
💭 And… does bubble tea count as self-care?
It’s honest. It’s messy. It’s funny. It’s painful. And above all, it’s human.
Because sometimes healing looks like sweating at the gym, sometimes it looks like dancing in the living room — and sometimes it looks like ordering taro milk tea with pearls and not apologising for it.
