American Patriarchy Explained: What's Happening to Women Right Now and How to Survive It | Dr. Anna Malaika Tubbs


Listen Later

We're the most educated generation of women in history. We're choosing ourselves in ways our mothers couldn't. And we're being punished for it.

If you're feeling anxious, confused, or like you're being pushed back into a box you fought to get out of, you're not imagining it. There's a pattern. A system. And once you can see it, you can navigate it differently.

Anna Malaika Tubbs (PhD, 2x NYT bestselling author of The Three Mothers and Erased) breaks down what we're actually up against and, more importantly, how to survive it while choosing yourself anyway. This is about recognition, strategy, and hope despite knowing the cost.
