Self-Improvement

Cosmetic surgery, fitness programmes, diets and self-help books. Evan Davis and guests discuss the industry of making yourself a better person, inside and out.

Self-improvement: If you want to look better, feel better, perform better, there's no shortage of help available. Whether it's cosmetic surgery for the perfect body, fitness programmes to boost self-esteem, or self-help books to improve the mind, there's plenty of choice. But do they promise the world and fail to deliver - or give you the strength to achieve the personal growth you desire? Evan Davis and guests discuss the industry of making your life better.
