  • 195. The "Good Girl" Trap (and How to Break the Patriachy's Rules) with Elise Loehnen

    195. The "Good Girl" Trap (and How to Break the Patriachy's Rules) with Elise Loehnen
    Oct 28 2024
    Content warning: conversations surrounding disordered eating, sexual assault, rape Hey Financial Feminists! Today’s conversation is one that’s going to challenge the way you see yourself and the world. I sat down with Elise Loehnen — New York Times bestselling author and host of the "Pulling the Thread" podcast — to unpack how the seven deadly sins have been used to keep women small and compliant for centuries. We talk about the trap of trying to be a “good girl” in a society that often tells us to stay quiet, how Elise looks to the seven deadly sins as a framework for what patriarchy sees as a “good girl” and why it’s all bullshit, and how to reclaim our desires, ambitions, and freedom by breaking the rules.

  • 194. How Project 2025 Will Affect Women, LGBTQIA+, Abortion Rights, and More with Journalist Amanda Becker

    194. How Project 2025 Will Affect Women, LGBTQIA+, Abortion Rights, and More with Journalist Amanda Becker
    Oct 21 2024
    Today's episode is an important one, and the contents will affect every woman you know. I chatted with Amanda Becker — a seasoned journalist who has covered national politics for nearly two decades — about the unprecedented nature of our current political scene. We took a critical look at Project 2025 by the Heritage Foundation, a plan proposing significant changes to LGBTQ rights, gender policies, reproductive rights, and education. We broke down who's behind it and what it could mean for healthcare, labor policies, and American families. This isn’t just about politics; this is about the power of grassroots democracy and the importance of civic engagement. We share practical advice on how you can get involved and make your voice heard. Plus, we include powerful stories about reproductive healthcare and community organizing that I think will resonate with you. So, if you're ready to be informed and inspired, this is an episode you won't want to miss.
