32 minutes

In today's episode, Molly delves into the nuanced process of reclaiming your personal narrative in the aftermath of betrayal, without resorting to revenge tactics. Utilizing Britney Spears' memoir as a case study, Molly emphasizes how harnessing the power of social media platforms can be a double-edged sword. Done correctly, it allows you to share your perspective and control the story surrounding you, but improper use can perpetuate misunderstandings and escalate tensions.

Molly provides actionable steps and strategic advice on how to own your narrative responsibly. By understanding the implications and reach of different platforms, you can better craft your message to effectively communicate your truth. Molly’s insights make it clear that it is not just about what you say, but how and where you say it, that makes all the difference in how your story is understood and received.
