This week, your hosts Lisa, Sovereign, and Gwen are joined by special guest BurbNBougie to break down internalized misogyny and how it shapes women’s perceptions of themselves and each other. But first, in our opening Tea Time segment, the hosts dive into the latest headlines, including Elon Musk’s reported feud with Trump, the rise of Deep Seek AI, and a new bill proposing a third term for Trump. In the main discussion, the hosts unpack the pervasive issue of “pick-me” behavior and its impact on women’s relationships, self worth, and cultural expectations. They explore societal conditioning, the role of women as resources in relationships, and the effects of parenting on gender dynamics. The conversation also highlights how women can work toward dismantling these harmful narratives. Finally, in our mailbag segment, we discuss how to advocate for yourself in the medical system, an update from a past listener, and navigating casual dating without centering men. 🎧 This episode challenges deep seated societal norms and encourages women to embrace solidarity, self worth, and empowerment. 🎙️ Topics Discussed: The roots of internalized misogyny and “pick-me” cultureHow society conditions women to see each other as competitionWomen as resources in relationships and the impact of gendered expectationsParenting’s role in shaping boys’ attitudes toward womenCultural perceptions of red lipstick and self-expressionThe importance of women supporting each other instead of competingListener questions on medical advocacy, breakups, and dating without centering men ✨ Links and Resources Mentioned: Trump reportedly 'kicks Elon out' of the West WingJD Vance says Big Tech has "too much power"Chinese A.I. app shakes up Silicon Valley, causing Wall Street selloffThe Dead Internet TheoryConstitutional amendment to allow Trump third term introduced in the HouseTikTok Creator Breakdown of Mothers & Sons 📚 This Week’s Recommendation: Phyllis Chesler - Author Women and MadnessWoman’s Inhumanity to Woman 💌 Join the Conversation: Got questions or stories?
