Welcome to the "Girl, We Grow Now" podcast, where we're navigating life in our 30s.

Hosted by Victoria—your sassy, tell-it-like-it-is bestie—this episode dives into

the question: 'Are we really "too much," or are we just too much for the wrong people?'

With the rise of the trad wife aesthetic and a growing push toward more conservative gender roles, there’s been a lot of chatter about what it means to be a woman in today’s world. So let’s have a little chat—because last time I checked, being independent, outspoken, and self-sufficient wasn’t a crime.

Are strong women really finishing last in love? Or are we just weeding out the men who were never on our level to begin with? In this episode, we’re diving into the myth that submission equals relationship success, why some men chase independent women only to try and clip their wings, and that it is possible to find a partnership that respects your voice instead of silencing it.

Because love isn’t about control—it’s about collaboration. And I refuse to believe that being THAT GIRL means you have to end up alone. Make sure to tune in and share this episode with your besties!
