The Body I Thought I Knew, and My Current Body — Even for Beauty Professionals, It Was the Same —

In the roundtable, they first express the feeling that "I thought I understood my body to some extent" based on their past exercise experiences and daily habits.

They talk about unconsciously applying the sensation of movements that came naturally when they were young to their current bodies. They also share moments when, after moving again after a long time, the sensation of "being able to do it" didn't match the actual reaction of their bodies.

Even for beauty professionals, the sensation of the body changes little by little over time. Such real feelings are candidly exchanged.

Don't Overdo It. But Don't Look Away Either. — A Sense of Distance Unique to Those Who Have Faced Beauty —

The conversation also extends to changes that become more noticeable with age, and the balance between mind and body.

It's about taking care of oneself in a way that suits one's current self, without overexerting or giving up on anything.

Not being overly afraid of change, and at the same time, not ignoring it. This sense of distance naturally emerges in their words. Such a realistic and gentle approach to self-care is discussed.

The Realization That You're Not Aging Alone — Connecting with People —

What is discussed in the conversation is the presence of people they have met while continuing to work in beauty. They are surrounded by people with interest, ambition, and curiosity, who teach them things they didn't know, or make them realize "I couldn't do this."

Being surrounded by such people and talking with them is the reason they haven't had to bear the process of aging alone. It's enjoyable and enriches life.

Instead of concluding "it's over" or "I have no choice but to give up" alone, they will continue to think, enjoy, and talk with others.

Let's spread this joy.
