The Audaci-Tea

Starter Wives


Listen Later

This week on The Audaci-Tea Podcast, your hosts Lisa, Sovereign, and Gwen discuss the concept of "Starter Wives” - women who support their partners' growth and success, only to be left behind once those efforts bear fruit. They explore why women should prioritize their well being, seek equitable partnerships, and avoid being used as stepping stones.

In our Tea Time segment, we cover the latest political and social developments, including Elon Musk calling Senator Mark Kelly a "traitor," President Trump claiming that boycotting Tesla is "illegal," and the U.S. administration's attempt to deport a Gaza protest leader. The hosts also share a voice note from a Patreon Tea VIP member.

Later in the episode, they dive into the financial and emotional burden placed on women in relationships, the power dynamics at play, and the importance of breaking free from traditional romance tropes. The conversation ends with a discussion on financial independence, prenups, and ensuring women’s contributions are valued in relationships.

 

🎧 This episode emphasizes the importance of centering oneself in relationships and recognizing the systemic issues that disadvantage women.


🎙️ Topics Discussed:

  • What it means to be a "Starter Wife" and its emotional impact
  • The hidden costs of building a man up
  • Why men often want to be seen as self-made
  • How invisible labor in relationships leaves women undervalued
  • Why prenups should protect women's contributions
  • The financial and emotional burdens women carry in relationships
  • The importance of self-love and prioritizing personal success
