Tall Girl Chats: It’s Okay To Hate Being Tall Sometimes

And we’re back! Welcome to yet another post! If you’re new here, my name is India and you are currently at the blog of A Tall Girl’s podcast where tall women can relate, have a good laugh, and even get some advice from a girl already living that tall girl lifestyle. 

Today is ultimately a little chat about loving your height and ultimately this whole self-love/body confidence journey because this is partially what this podcast is about. 

I’m just going to start off by saying that I’ve been noticing a lot of back pain, and I haven’t really experienced that in such a long time. I think to myself “why is this pain coming back?” because I haven’t experienced it since I stopped slouching. I think that’s when it all clicked. I’ve been slouching a lot recently. 

I mean part of it is due to the fact that I’m attending school and working online in my bedroom, so I’m constantly slouched over a laptop, but I can say that I’ve definitely worked on that by setting limits to how long I sit and occasionally stretching. These desks and chairs these days are not necessarily “tall-friendly” so it makes it kind of hard to sit comfortably and straight. 

However, I’m not really slouching just at my desk. Even when I’m walking around, whether at home or in public, I’m slouching also. And I don’t like it. I used to slouch a lot when I was younger because I really used to HATE being tall. I wanted to be shorter (which looking back at it now is pretty sad, not necessarily being short, but really just having a low self-esteem). But as I got older, I really worked on standing up straighter and just acting more confident, moreso to make myself feel better about being tall until I eventually genuinely was. 

But right now I really just feel myself regressing. Why? Check out the full chat!
