This week on Spill the tea with Womenkind Collective we’re diving deep into the conversations that matter and we wanted to talk about internalised misogyny and why so many women judge another woman, is this a deep patriarchal conditioning to keep women divided? Who better to help us unpack this emotive topic than the fabulous Lauren Currie OBE.

Lauren is an incredible keynote speaker, and for seven years, she served as the chairperson of Pregnant Then Screwed. She is the founder of UPFRONT, a ground-breaking organisation on a mission to transform confidence, visibility, and power for 10 million women. Thousands of women across 50+ countries have already graduated from her flagship programme, The UPFRONT Bond, proving that this is more than a movement—it’s a revolution.

Her impact has not gone unnoticed—she’s been recognised as a woman changing the world by Elle Magazine and named one of Management Today’s top businesswomen under 35. In 2017, Lauren was awarded an OBE for her services to design and diversity.

Together we explore:

1) What internalised misogyny really is- and how to recognise it

2) How judgment of women by other women is driven by social conditioning and invisible 'rules'

3) The role of media in reinforcing harmful gender stereotypes

4) How to unlearn internalised bias and rewire confidence

5) The personal moment Lauren realised she had internalised misogyny- and what changed after that

6) The story behind make-up free moments, with celebrities like Pamela Anderson, and how they still provoke judgment

and more!

Our Book Club gets under way and we discuss the first 2 chapters of our book for this series, How To Kill A Witch. A guide For The Patriarchy, by Claire Mitchell & Zoe Venditozzi, and already we are hooked!

There’s some weekly inspiration to give you some good news stories that you might have missed, and there’s a beautiful quote to send you off for the week with.

It’s an episode brimming with chat and all the usual shenanigans! So, go and get the kettle on and settle in for our weekly collective chat while we spill the tea with Lauren Currie!
