Welcome back to Waking Up to the Patriarchy, our new series on You Gotta Try This. This season, we’re pulling back the curtain to see how patriarchy is functioning under the surface, shaping our entire society.

In this episode, you’ll hear a conversation with my friend Kayleigh in which we talk about gendered classroom dynamics, dress codes, and new child leave. We'll also explore some historical milestones for women's equality.

Check out our Bookshop to find all the books we’ve mentioned thus far on the podcast.
