EP44: Me Too, the News, and Self-Care

Oct 9, 2018

I was scared to do this episode. But I had to. I’m talking about telling our stories — in real and vulnerable ways.  

This episode is an imperfect, but honest, conversation that was inspired by the recent news coverage of the Kavanaugh confirmation and its relationship to the rising up of women’s voices.

Specifically, this show covers:

• Women’s historical bravery – from the suffrage movement to the me too movement
• A Disney moment that caused me shame and fear… and how my mom handled it
• The importance of being heard
• The value of bravery and collective action
• How can you break your own silence, to both gather and give support?
• How we’ve been conditioned, particularly about our bodies and sexuality
• Parenting a son and a daughter for a safer and more just world

Resources mentioned:

• Sheryl Sandberg Lean In
• My coming to feminism on EP 26 This is not me hating men
• Dear Dads: Your daughters told me about their assaults. This is why they never told you. article here
