Welcome to the premiere of The Dirtier The Better with Bella, the podcast where Bella dives into life’s messier moments with humor, honesty, and a martini. In this first episode, Bella tackles the ever-relatable topic of body image and her own personal struggles, and she gets vulnerable from the jump. She gets real about the insecurities she faces, how she's navigating them, and the small, doable ways we can show ourselves a little more compassion. Bella also gives a glimpse of her newest project in production, her debut short film Dear Bella, so be sure to stay tuned for more updates about where you can watch it once it's out. Expect laughs, a few surprisingly heartfelt moments, and plenty of “oh thank God it’s not just me” energy.
