In this solo episode, I go headfirst into one of the most damaging lies we've been fed: that masculinity and femininity no longer exist. That we're all the same. That difference is dangerous. But it’s not sameness that creates attraction. It’s polarity. It’s not neutrality that gives us strength. It’s clarity. I talk about what happens when we erase the masculine and feminine—and what ge...

Have you ever been called out—not by a stranger, but by someone who knows you better than anyone? That’s what happened to me.
