In this tandem episode, I'm unpacking a question posed by the viral Vogue article: "Is having a boyfriend embarrassing now?"

We'll talk about the cultural shift that's made women feel like being in a healthy relationship somehow makes you weaker, less independent, or less "girlboss." I share how I've seen internet feminism swing too far into performative man-hating, why that still feels like centering men, and how to reclaim power, partnership, and sovereignty at the same time.

I also open up about what it's looked like in my own life — from losing myself in unhealthy relationships, to re-rootingwho I am, and now finding myself in a relationship that's healthy, supportive, and expansive.

This is a conversation about nuance, leadership, and emotional maturity, and about learning to build a life that's self-led and open to love if you want to pursue partnership.

You'll hear:

• Why "decentering men" still secretly centers them
• How social media's "soft hate" toward partnership keeps women disconnected
• The difference between self-abandonment and healthy interdependence
• What true feminine sovereignty looks like inside a relationship
• How to build your identity so partnership is additive, not definitive
