In this episode, we dive headfirst into the cultural and systemic issue of misogyny and how it specifically targets women who are open about their sexuality.

When was the last time you showed yourself the kind of love you give so freely to others? In a world that profits from our insecurities, choosing self-love is nothing short of a revolutionary act—and in this episode, we’re breaking it all down.

But how do we recognize it, address it, and make sure w...

We’re kicking off Season 2 with a deep dive into a topic many of us can relate to but rarely discuss: fawning . You’ve heard of fight, flight, and freeze, but what about fawning?
