The Soft Life & The Real Life

...I Just Needed To Poop

Fri, 21 Aug 2026 21:01:59 +0000

What if that “blah” feeling isn’t just your mood—but your gut trying to get your attention?In this episode, I’m sharing my personal wake-up call after realizing I had been eating way too much vegan junk food, feeling completely unmotivated, living in sweatpants and a ponytail, and—most importantly—hadn’t pooped in THREE days. 😂It reminded me just how deeply connected our gut, brain, energy, and mood really are. We’re talking about the gut-brain connection, serotonin, dopamine, digestion, constipation, nutrition, and why what’s happening in your body can influence how you experience your life.This isn’t about saying anxiety or depression is “all in your gut.” It’s about remembering that mental and physical wellness are not separate. Sometimes before we assume something is wrong with our life, we need to check in with the body that is living it.Because your body is always communicating.And sometimes the “I don’t feel like myself” feeling is simply an invitation to listen.Your gut might have more to say about your mood than you realize. 🌿

GIRL! Go Ahead and Free Yourself

Thu, 20 Aug 2026 00:42:01 +0000

What if the parts of you that you were taught to hide are actually the very parts that hold your power?Your sensuality. Your sexuality. Your pleasure. Your joy. Your ability to feel deeply, desire boldly, and let yourself be fully alive.In this episode, we’re talking about “hoeing” as a reclamation of feminine freedom—not as a performance for anyone else, but as the divine feminine choosing to come home to her own body, her own desire, and her own joy.Because pleasure is creative energy. Sensuality teaches you how to receive. Sexuality reconnects you with your life force. And joy opens you to the possibility that you don’t have to struggle for everything you desire.When you stop being ashamed of your pleasure and start honoring it, you begin to move differently. You attract differently. You create differently. You manifest from a place of fullness instead of lack.This is about releasing the shame, the conditioning, the “good girl” programming, and the belief that a woman has to shrink her desires to be worthy of love, respect, abundance, or spirituality.It’s time to explore what happens when a woman gives herself permission to feel good, want more, receive fully, and live sensually.Because maybe your pleasure isn’t the distraction from your purpose.Maybe your pleasure is the portal. 🌹

I'm Trying To Sit Down Somewhere

Fri, 12 Jun 2026 00:32:45 +0000

What if the thing you've been chasing is waiting for you to slow down?In this episode, I'm sharing why I've been learning to do less instead of more. Less forcing. Less hustling. Less trying to control every outcome. And surprisingly, that's when life has started feeling a whole lot sweeter.We're talking about rest, stillness, trusting God's timing, and allowing the Universe to bring opportunities, relationships, and blessings without exhausting yourself trying to make everything happen. Because somewhere along the way, many of us were taught that if we're not busy, we're not productive. If we're resting, we're falling behind. If we're sitting still, we're wasting time.But what if peace is productive?What if your next breakthrough doesn't come from working harder, but from creating enough space to actually receive it?Grab your tea, take a deep breath, and join me for a conversation about releasing the hustle, embracing the soft life, and learning that sometimes the most powerful thing you can do is sit down somewhere and enjoy the life you're building.Because doing less might just help you receive more.

From brain fog, hot flashes, poor sleep mood changes, weight gain to changes in intimacy could be early signs of perimenopause. Dr. Brigid Monda breaks down what every woman should know about the hormonal transitions that shape midlife. Did you know, #perimenopause can begin as early as 35. Yet most women don't know what it is, what it feels like, or how to recognize the signs.In this episode of Be That Woman, I sit down with OB/GYN & Menopause Practitioner, Dr. Brigid Monda, to unpack one of the most misunderstood stages of a woman's life: perimenopause, menopause and post-menopause.We explore what is actually happening in the female body from a medical perspective, the signs women shouldn't ignore, the role of hormones like oestrogen, and how these changes can impact relationships, intimacy, confidence, and overall wellbeing.We also discuss why menopause remains such a silent conversation in many communities, what women can do to navigate this transition with knowledge, support and confidence and how you can reach Dr. Brigid, a menopause practitioner directly.

Eavesdropping at Pappadeaux Changed My Perspective

Sat, 30 May 2026 03:13:51 +0000

I was sitting at Pappadeaux enjoying my meal when I overheard a grown son lovingly fussing at his mama about taking her blood pressure medicine, eating regular meals, and making healthier choices. The problem wasn't that she didn't understand what he was saying—it was that she didn't know how to actually do anything differently.In this episode, we're talking about the gap between health advice and real life. Why "eat healthier" isn't always helpful, why so many women feel overwhelmed by nutrition, and how small, simple changes can make a bigger difference than another lecture ever could.If you've ever stood in the grocery store wondering what you're actually supposed to eat, this conversation is for you. We're choosing guidance over guilt, support over shame, and practical wellness over perfection. 💛

Your Great-Grandma Wouldn’t Eat That Fruit

Fri, 29 May 2026 02:12:11 +0000

This episode started with a casual grocery store trip and ended with me questioning modern fruit altogether.Because why did one of my gentleman friends proudly tell me he only eats seedless grapes and watermelon… and my spirit immediately got concerned?We’re talking seedless fruit, GMO foods, weird grocery store produce, fertility, minerals, local food, and why these watermelons online are looking more and more like science experiments.Baby, when you cut open a watermelon and it look like insulation foam, we need to have a conversation.In this episode we’re getting into:• why fruits naturally have seeds• how modern food has become more about convenience than nourishment• the spiritual symbolism of seeds, abundance, and fertility• mineral deficiencies and disconnected eating• why locally grown food just feels different• and why your great-grandmama probably knew more about nutrition than half the internetThis is funny, soulful, slightly petty, and lowkey serious all at the same time.Also — summertime doula clients are officially open, so if you’ve been craving more holistic womb support, softness, grounding, and reconnecting with your body naturally… this episode is definitely for you.

Babbbby Birth Control Had Me Bloated & Gave Me Belly Fat

Tue, 26 May 2026 00:13:31 +0000

I started the birth control pill thinking I was about to become one of those organized, responsible adult women… whole time my hormones was downstairs fighting in the kitchen. Suddenly I was starving every five minutes, crying over TikToks, craving fries like a woman in a medieval famine, and wondering why my jeans started fitting like they were holding a personal grudge against me. In today’s episode, I’m talking about my experience gaining weight on the pill, the mood swings, bloating, cravings, emotional chaos, and how I realized maybe I wasn’t “lazy” or “dramatic” — maybe my body was reacting to hormonal birth control. We’re getting into the side effects nobody really warns women about, learning how to listen to your body, and the natural, holistic things women use to support their hormones and metabolism after coming off the pill. Because baby… sometimes it’s not you. Sometimes it’s your hormones acting like unpaid interns.

Instagram: The Toxic EX You Can't Leave Alone

Sun, 24 May 2026 22:05:15 +0000

In this episode we’re talking about burnout, overstimulation, survival mode, and why I finally realized social media had my nervous system out here fighting invisible battles all day.Like baby… one minute I’m opening Instagram to “check one thing” and thirty minutes later my cortisol levels are tap dancing, I’m comparing my life to strangers in Tulum, and suddenly I feel behind in life for no reason at all.We’re getting into what constant scrolling, noise, bad news, comparison culture, and being chronically online can actually do to your mind and body — especially as women already carrying the weight of motherhood, healing, work, relationships, and everyday life.I’m sharing how taking a social media break helped me feel calmer, softer, more present, more connected to myself spiritually, emotionally, and creatively… and how stillness honestly became one of the most healing things I could give myself.Because sometimes you’re not lazy, unmotivated, or “crazy.”Your nervous system is just tired of being electronically harassed.This episode feels like a deep exhale, a porch conversation, and a reminder that peace is still available to you.So grab your tea, sit down somewhere quiet, and come reset with me for a minute.

I Thought I Was Crazy...Nope...It Was The Birth Control

Sat, 23 May 2026 07:15:19 +0000

This episode is for the girls who got on birth control and suddenly started feeling real unfamiliar with themselves.We’re talking about the pill, the ring, the Depo shot, random crying spells, getting irritated over absolutely nothing, anxiety, feeling emotionally all over the place, disconnected from your body, and realizing maybe it’s not just “stress” after all… maybe your hormones are in distress.I’m sharing my own experience after getting engaged and starting birth control thinking I was just being responsible whole time that little ring had me ready to argue because somebody was breathing too loud. I talk about how it affected my mood, nervous system, emotions, and how getting off of it made me feel like myself again almost immediately.We’re also getting into the side effects women are rarely warned about and why listening to your body and intuition matters way more than people think.If you’ve been feeling off, emotional, exhausted, anxious, numb, or just not like YOU since starting hormonal birth control… baby this episode is for you.Your body talks.Your hormones talk.And sometimes the birth control really is the problem.

Girl, It Was My Iron

Mon, 18 May 2026 04:36:52 +0000

In this episode, I’m sharing how I thought I was just tired from motherhood, stress, and hormones… but baby, it was my iron. Nobody tells you that during perimenopause and menopause your body can start whispering for help before it starts screaming. I’m talking about dragging through the day, brain fog, low energy, feeling disconnected from yourself, and then walking into the vitamin aisle only to realize there’s fiftyleven different kinds of iron and no clue what your body actually needs. We’re getting into ferritin, folate, the foods that truly nourish us, and the womb wisdom of slowing down long enough to listen to your body. This episode feels like a warm kitchen-table conversation for the women who are tired of surviving and ready to feel alive again.

Why Is Contraception Still So Taboo in 2026? | Living with Endo & Fibroids | VIYA Health

Thu, 30 Apr 2026 19:02:07 +0000

We’re diving into a conversation many still avoid sexual health, contraceptives, and the truths women are often left to figure out on their own. Why does the responsibility continue to fall mostly on women?

And how informed are we really about the choices we’re making for our bodies?

The silence and discomfort around contraceptives
Why male contraception is rarely part of the conversation
The reality of unsafe sex and rising STI risks, including HIV
The truth that contraceptives do NOT protect against STIs/STDs
Personal experiences navigating reproductive health conditions like fibroids, endometriosis, and adenomyosis
The link between sexual health, mental health, and vulnerability
Why more young people are finally opening up and why that matters
Living with Endometriosis, Fibroids and Adenomyosis

This is a raw, honest, and deeply necessary conversation.Join us as we unpack:We also explore how access to sexual and reproductive healthcare is evolving in a digital world.Did you know we have Viya Health, a digital platform that is changing how women access care by making it private, accessible, and stigma-free.Imagine being able to speak to a qualified professional about your sexual, reproductive, or contraceptive health, from the comfort of your home.No long queues.No judgement.No awkward conversations in public spaces.Just real, confidential support when you need it.📲 Reach Viya on WhatsApp: +254 701 727174🌐 Visit: https://Viyakenya.co/askviyaWhether you have questions about contraception, reproductive health, or anything you’ve been too uncomfortable to ask, support is now just a message away.At the core of this episode is one reminder:Your body.

Turns Out My Womb Had Receipts From Every Relationship

Sun, 26 Apr 2026 02:29:24 +0000

In this episode, I’m opening up about a real part of my healing journey—how I came to realize my womb wasn’t just going through physical things, it was also holding onto some emotional weight from my past.I share how my understanding of love started in childhood and how that quietly showed up in my relationships with men—having me shrink myself, question my worth, and move in ways that didn’t fully reflect who God created me to be.This is a gentle but honest conversation about emotional patterns, what we carry in our bodies, and what it actually looks like to heal beyond just the surface.I talk about the moment things started to shift for me… when I made the decision that I truly deserved love and a beautiful life—and how that choice began to change not just my mindset, but how I felt in my body too.We close with a soothing prayer to Yemoja, asking for release, healing, and a return to softness and peace.If you’ve been feeling a little heavy, a little off, or stuck in patterns you’re ready to outgrow, this episode is your invitation to slow down, check in with yourself, and gently let go of what’s no longer yours.Because healing your womb also means healing what it’s been holding.

Today’s episode is one of them quiet realizations that hit deep.I’m sharing a real moment from planning a girls trip where I caught myself about to talk myself out of something I actually wanted—just because I assumed somebody else wouldn’t like it.

And I didn’t realize just how much that shift would affect my body — especially my womb.In this episode, I’m talking about what changed when I stopped bottling up my emotions just to keep the peace.

So I Peed On Myself A Little Bit At The Trampoline Park...

Sun, 01 Mar 2026 05:15:05 +0000

So boom. Grown woman. Cute outfit. Wig laid. Took my baby to the trampoline park feeling young and athletic.Did one high jump toe-touch like I was auditioning for the Dallas Cowboys Cheerleaders… and when I came down?A lil sprinkle said, “Ma’am. Be humble.”In this episode of Survival Mode to Soft Life, I’m telling the whole story about how the trampoline park humbled me and reminded me that my pelvic floor has been through some things. Pregnancy. Birth. Life. Stress. All of it. And apparently she said, “You gone respect me today.”We’re talking about:

Peeing a little bit and pretending nothing happened
Why postpartum bodies deserve real love (even years later)
Pelvic floor healing without shame
And how you can still be fine, fly, and feminine while doing your Kegels

If you’ve ever coughed, laughed, jumped, or sneezed and felt that tiny betrayal… this is your episode. You are NOT alone. And you are still that girl.Stream the episode on YouTube, Spotify, and Apple Podcasts.Because healing your pelvic floor and keeping it cute? Yeah. We can do both.

Mon, 16 Feb 2026 04:39:48 +0000

In this episode, we’re talking about what it really means to lock in for twelve months — not from a grind or hustle place, but from a place of peace, clarity, and self-trust.This isn’t about doing more.

A Blocked Womb Blocks Your Bliss

Sun, 08 Feb 2026 07:59:00 +0000

When the womb is blocked, it can quietly block your bliss.In this episode, we talk about how stress, survival mode, unspoken emotions, and constantly pouring out can settle in the womb and slowly block your bliss — disconnecting you from pleasure, softness, and joy. You may not even notice it at first… you just feel tired, numb, or like ease is always just out of reach.This is an invitation to return to your Divine Feminine. To slow down. To feel again. To let your womb exhale.Womb wellness isn’t about fixing yourself — it’s about remembering your natural rhythm, your intuition, your softness, your power. When you come back home to your body, bliss isn’t something you chase… it’s something you allow.If you’ve been carrying too much, this space is for you. Let’s soften what’s been holding on and open the door back to bliss.

Episode 30: It's Coming: Shuffled Not Shaken

Tue, 25 Nov 2025 02:10:46 +0000

In today’s episode, I’m sharing what it really feels like to walk through a chaotic season and still trust that everything I asked the Creator for is already on its way to me. Sometimes life isn’t falling apart — it’s just being rearranged. Pieces get shuffled, people get moved, doors close, and the path looks nothing like what we imagined… but it’s still leading exactly where we prayed to be.I talk about what it means to keep showing up with love, grace, and forgiveness while you’re in the middle of the storm. Not after it passes. Not when things make sense. But right here, right now, when everything is loud and messy and stretching you in ways you didn’t ask for.This episode is for anyone who’s navigating a hard chapter but refuses to let it harden their heart.

Episode 29: November 6th Divorce Update

Tue, 11 Nov 2025 03:48:25 +0000

This week, I’m opening up with a real-life divorce update — not from a place of pain, but from peace. I’ve learned that sometimes Spirit won’t show you the full picture, because you’re meant to trust your way through it. This episode is about surrendering control, releasing timelines, and remembering that faith lives in the in-between — those quiet moments where you can’t see what’s next but you still keep going.If you’ve ever tried to hold it all together when life felt uncertain, this one’s for you. I’m sharing what it really looks like to let go, to listen, and to flow with Spirit instead of fighting against what’s unfolding.✨ Listen in for a reminder that you don’t have to control everything — you just have to trust that what’s meant for you will meet you right on time.

Episode #28: I'm More than a MOM- I'm a WOMAN.

Fri, 07 Nov 2025 03:47:13 +0000

For a long time, I thought being a good mom meant giving all of me away — my time, my energy, my joy, my identity. I traded “me” for “mama” and wore the exhaustion like a badge of honor. But somewhere in the chaos, I realized that I wasn’t fully living — I was surviving.In this episode, I open up about how I lost myself in motherhood, especially as a Black woman raised to carry it all, do it all, and still smile through it. I talk about the moment I remembered that before I was anyone’s mama, I was me — a woman with dreams, desires, and a spirit that deserves pleasure, peace, and play.This is for every Black mom who’s ever felt guilty for wanting more than motherhood — for wanting herself back. You don’t have to choose. You can nurture your children and still nourish your soul. You’re a woman first, and that truth is powerful.✨ Listen now to reclaim your joy, your softness, and your womanhood. 🎧 Grab your tea, your peace, and come flow with me.

Episode 27: Freeing Myself, Foreal This Time: I Filed For Divorce & Finally Free’d Myself

Wed, 05 Nov 2025 03:24:36 +0000

You ever look back at a version of yourself and realize she was holding her breath every single day just to make it look like she was “good”? Yeah… that was me. I filed for divorce. And not because I failed — but because I finally decided to live.For so long I was performing happy. Smiling on the outside while drowning on the inside… convincing myself that being “strong” meant staying silent, staying put, staying small. Whew. The way peace hits different when you stop forcing a life that’s suffocating you.In this episode, I’m opening up about choosing myself. About letting go of perfection, freeing myself from a life that wasn’t aligned, and stepping into the most authentic, rested, joyful version of me. And I’m sharing it not for gossip, not for attention — but because I know another woman is listening right now feeling trapped in a story she never actually chose.If you need a sign that it’s okay to prioritize your peace… baby, this is it. You can rebuild. You can rewrite the narrative. You can choose you — without shame, without performing strength, and without explaining yourself to anyone.Let’s talk about what liberation really feels like on the other side.And if you’re on your own healing journey — whether you’re a mama, in a transition, or learning how to stand in your truth again — I got you. My book Flow Feminine Wellness is filled with guidance, recipes, herbs, and rituals to nourish you from the inside out. You can also shop my teas, creams, and supplements, or work with me as your digital doula if you’re reclaiming your womanhood and your life.Because we don’t just survive seasons like this — we rise softer, stronger, and more aligned than ever.

Episode 26: Processing Trauma From My Past Abortions So I Can Be Free

Wed, 05 Nov 2025 02:57:17 +0000

In today’s episode, I’m opening my heart in a way I never have before. For years, I carried the silent weight of my three abortions — tucking the pain behind motherhood, routines, and a strong-on-the-outside face. I thought if I ignored it, if I stayed busy enough, I could outrun the memories, the grief, the guilt. But our bodies… our wombs… they remember everything we don’t want to say out loud.One day I finally sat down with my womb, with my ancestors, with God…and I told the truth. I let myself feel it. I cried. I forgave myself. And y’all — that forgiveness cracked something wide open.Through womb meditations, breathwork, grounding prayers, and gentle yoni steaming, I started releasing layers of shame and grief I didn’t even realize I was still carrying. What I found underneath wasn’t pain… it was peace, softness, and a deep joy I didn’t know was possible.This episode is for every Black woman who has ever held secret pain in her womb space — abortions, miscarriages, birth trauma, fibroids, loss, shame, silence. We deserve healing. We deserve compassion. We deserve to feel whole again… without judgment, without stigma, without apology.Come sit with me. Breathe with me. And let’s remember: forgiveness is freedom.If today’s conversation touched your spirit, honor that. And if you’re ready to deepen your healing journey, my book Flow Feminine Wellness and my teas and rituals for womb harmony are here for you. Visit my site to explore, read, breathe, and remember your power.

Episode 20: Bag Lady: The Baggage I Was Carrying in My Womb

Wed, 08 Oct 2025 02:27:01 +0000

In this episode of Flow Feminine Wellness, I’m getting real about the emotional and spiritual weight I was carrying in my womb — the guilt, fear, resentment, and people-pleasing that had quietly taken root inside of me until my body started to speak.It started as a faint ache I couldn’t quite explain. I thought maybe it was something I ate or a new ingredient in my usual groceries, but deep down I knew it was something more. When I finally got still enough to listen, Spirit showed me the truth: my womb felt heavy because I was carrying people, places, and things that didn’t belong to me.In this episode, I share how I realized that my womb pain wasn’t just physical — it was emotional and spiritual. I talk about how we, as women, trap unspoken feelings in our wombs. Guilt, fear, resentment, heartbreak — all those emotions that go unhealed can turn into womb imbalance. The same way food can cause fibroids and painful cycles, so can our unprocessed emotions. The difference is, the spiritual and emotional are even more powerful — they just don’t want us to know that.I’ll also share how I released that energy through stillness, joy, and a good old-fashioned “womb detox” — and how I started living my life freely again. Because once I stopped people-pleasing and started honoring myself, my spirit — and my body — began to heal.So if you’ve been feeling heavy, disconnected, or like your womb has been trying to tell you something… this episode is for you.Let’s heal, release, and get back to our joy together.✨ Listen now and let it go.💖 Grab your copy of Flow Feminine Wellness and explore my teas and creams created to support your womb and your divine feminine healing at FlowFeminineWellness.com.

Faith Battled Addiction | Men’s HyperIndependence, African Masculinity, Therapy & Mothers Sacrifices

Tue, 30 Sep 2025 16:00:01 +0000

🚨 Welcome to the Season 2 Finale!! We uncover the hidden battles men fight every day: addiction, silence, & the crushing expectation of always being “the strong one.” This is not just another podcast episode it’s the most raw, unfiltered, and faith-filled conversation we’ve had yet on the Be That Woman Podcast with two brilliant minds Greg Wanjama & Moses Kemibaro 🎙️🔥 Here’s what we dive into:- The supernatural prayer & intervention that saved Moses from addiction.- How Greg has battled always being the odd one out from being saved from 9 years old- Why men suffer in silence; the high suicide rates, hyper-independence & avoiding therapy.- The African man’s upbringing: tough, unshaken… but silently breaking.- Faith as a foundation: how God shows up in the darkest moments.- Mothers as unsung heroes; their sacrifices, caregiving, & shaping of men’s lives.- Why mentorship, community & simply talking can release hidden burdens.- Men’s health phobias: why so many assume “I’m fine” instead of seeking help.✨ This finale is more than a conversation, it’s a wake-up call. Healing begins when men stop carrying the weight alone, and when we all stop doubting God’s goodness, even in the storm.👉🏽 If you love someone who struggles silently, share this with them. It might just save a life.#bethatwomanpodcast #MensMentalHealth #FaithHealing #AddictionRecovery #AfricanMasculinityFollow us on Instagram, Tiktok, Linked in on both pages "bethatwomanpodcast" & "joymido"

Together, we unpack the ways women have shaped their journeys: from wives, in-laws to mothers, daughters, kids & beyond.In our Two-Part Series, we’re diving into the things that men often carry silently but rarely express openly: the weight of expectations in marriage, navigating in-laws, balancing faith, & the pressures of being a husband and father.At the same time, it’s a window for women to better understand the men in their lives how they think, what they value, & the role faith & family play in shaping them. Both men spoke openly about how their walk with God grounds them in marriage and family. That’s a conversation we don’t have nearly enough 🙏💍 Part 1 is all about Wives, In-Laws. Kids & Faith. And let me tell you, the honesty here is unmatched. This series isn’t just for women. It’s for the men too. It’s for anyone who cares about love, faith, & the real work it takes to build relationships that last.🚨 Let’s wrap up the season together with wisdom, laughter, & a whole lot of truth.#seasonfinale #marriageandfaith #familytalks

Femicide in Kenya: Patriarchy, Victim Blaming & Delayed Justice

Sun, 13 Apr 2025 10:32:54 +0000

129 femicide cases in Kenya since the beginning of 2025 — a staggering and heartbreaking reality. As a woman, do you ever feel like you have to work twice as hard just to be seen, heard, or taken seriously?
Why are we still holding on to outdated, dangerous beliefs:
“Women belong in the kitchen.”“Women shouldn’t run for political office.”“Women shouldn’t earn more than men.”In this episode, we confront these harmful narratives head-on. It’s time to ask the hard questions, challenge the status quo, and demand better — for every woman.

Mon, 03 Jul 2023 12:50:21 +0000

As ladies raised to be strong and independent, femininity content can be a bit of a quagmire. Sometimes it's triggering to see "how to be more feminine..." Or "how to make men like you"... However, we must admit that the babygirl lifestyle offers some perks. We discuss the highs and lows of being a babygirl. It was such an enlightening episode. Hope you enjoy.

Mon, 12 Jun 2023 15:32:36 +0000

Every so often on Twitter, #FearWomen trends. It can be triggering because it creates a false notion that women are dangerous and heartless. In this episode, we go through some chaotic and hilarious narrations on how women have character-developed men. Some are harsh and sad; however, this is all in jest. Kindly note that we encourage healthy relationships and accountability by all sexes. Hope you have a good laugh.

Season 2 | Episode 4: Let's Normalize...

Sat, 27 May 2023 17:22:39 +0000

A lot of abnormal things are normalised. In this episode, we discuss a few things that should be normalised. How is it reasonable to work a human like a donkey, pay them horribly and still expect them to meet their KPIs? Gen Zs were onto something with the healthy work environment. Isn't it bizarre that you're more likely to have a babe come to you as a woman than it is to end up at the aisle? There's wisdom and respect owed to our elders; then there's the unsufferable overstepping by the aunties. Hope you enjoy the banter and feel free to add your own thoughts to the list.

Season 2 | Episode 2: RED PILL - A Brotherhood or A War on Women?

Fri, 12 May 2023 12:46:41 +0000

Have you been on Twitter or socials recently? Gender Wars are the order of the day. Honestly, it is tiring. We explore the origins and effects of the Red Pill and how feminism ties into the growth of incel culture, manosphere and misogyny. Is it all freedom of expression? A beautiful brotherhood? or is it a path to gender violence and criminal behaviour?

The Young, Dumb and Broke version of us would be so proud of the women we are now. Wueh! If someone told us we would no longer spend the weekends shitfaced, in different counties, unable to say 'no' to friends and no longer allergic to accountability; we wouldn't believe them. Enjoy listening to us recount some poor decisions and hope you have some of your own.

People often say that it doesn't get any better than life in your 20s. That enjoy this or do more of that... but no one ever talks about the confusion of it all. How one minute our parents were saying "Don't do this" to now "It's your life. What will you do about x or z?" The reality that "this really is your life" is terrifying. Your decisions. Your failures. Your risks. Your success. We spend so many years wanting to grow up then we get here and it is so different from what we envisioned. We explore how we are dealing with the post-uni life, comparison, career changes and of course matters of the heart in these wild times.

In this sisterhood, we value friendships. Friendship isn't a big thing, it's a million little things. However, we have some unconventional opinions on friendships. You know... those ones that have resulted in us being cut off or ending friendships. Those that have some of our friends side-eyeing us. Is it okay to date your friends' exes? Can people with different political/religious/economic opinions truly be friends? Is your sharp-tongued friend really your friend? Is ghosting in friendship okay? We hope you enjoy it.
