Open any social feed: Chances are, there's a creator showcasing a new trend, product, or brand to try. This week, we debate two opposing trends on social: lifestyle creep and underconsumption core.

Sometimes, the #FYP mirrors cultural tensions better and more acutely than anything else, and we’d be remiss not to discuss how gender norms and roles are being debated on social media.

Whether it's a mashup between two brands or a brand and a creator, everyone in the marketing space loves a good partnership. Yet, in order to break through, the collaboration needs to either be the most organic pairing, provide additional consumer value, or net out to be the most unexpected one (looking at you, E.L.F.!)

With platforms like TikTok exposing millions of people to knowledge they never had access to, we’re witnessing the reign of the DIY generation. Brands are no longer able to gatekeep information from consumers, allowing creators to spin themselves to fame through often divisive and bold views on what and who to boycott.
Shared knowledge is a positive force exposing people to answers they wouldn’t find elsewhere, changing how we consume and research brands, but it also puts more pressure on media literacy while navigating through information that’s not regulated or fact-checked by anyone.
This week, we discuss:

Last year was dubbed the year of the girl and consequently, we all turned into girlies on social. We embraced everything from bows to ballerina core and The Barbie Movie.
Tradwives, misogyny, and ageism in girlificationThe liberation of allowing yourself to be girly in professional and personal settings Presenting feminine and being a woman in marketing and agencies, and more.
The seemingly innocent, rose-tinted trend can also double as a thinly veiled form of radical escapism of the burdens of womanhood under attack (at least in America).
Perhaps the girlification of content and marketing is also a permission to play on platforms that originally were spaces for younger generations. Either way, Janni and Christine join the show to debate the phenomenon.

It seems that every other celebrity, bravolebrity, creator, and podcaster is on weight loss medication. Pharma brands are going heavy on paid social to promote easily accessible subscriptions, and have even approached a slew of body positive creators with brand deals. The casting of plus size models at the most recent New York Fashion Week has dropped by 24%.
And, while these medications are a breakthrough for many that need them to manage their health, it does seem that we are collectively going back to the very same diet culture every millennial grew up in.
