Number 1: Patriarchy Hack #38: Create an alter ego

Free preview available here. Creating an alter ego is a cheat code not only in navigating the patriarchy, but in navigating life. It enables us to create a version of ourselves that's not weighed down by our fears and limiting beliefs. It's no surprise so many celebrities have an alter ego...and that religions (literally) demonize people who channel them... ✨Hope you love it and can use this law to make your dreams come true.

Number 2: Religion groomed girls so we'd never realize Woman is god
📚 AND don't forget to get your copy of How to Hack the Patriarchy on Amazon or get a signed paperback, PDF, or EPUB directly from me. Free preview available here. Have you ever wondered why every Abrahamic religion treats menstruating women as dirty and spiritually contaminated? That’s because religion took creation – something that’s uniquely feminine – and attributed it to a male god. And because it couldn’t erase the physical evidence of female creation, it warped it into something shameful and impure. In this episode, I roll up my sleeves and answer the questions many of us are afraid to ask. I’ll discuss: How religion began 250,000 years ago as a shamanistic practice with female leadersThe catalyst that made religion devolve into a patriarchal institutionThe neuroscience research showing how religion shuts down parts of our brainHow religion & girlhood socialization contain complementary grooming mechanismsThe missing piece explaining the paradox that women tend to be more religious than menWhether Abrahamic religions can ever serve women& the spiritual tool that women need ✨ God isn’t a woman.

Number 4: Girly law of power #29: Stop being afraid of being alone
📚 AND don't forget to get your copy of How to Hack the Patriarchy on Amazon or get a signed paperback, PDF, or EPUB directly from me. Free preview available here. Society tells us the major “accomplishments” in a woman’s life are getting married and having kids. Both of which are actions that bring people into her life. Unfortunately, most of what’s celebrated in women is about distracting us from our power and finding ourselves in other people. On top of that, there’s so much fear instilled in us: “Who’s going to take care of you when you’re old?” “Your biological clock is ticking!” “Who’s going to protect you?” “You’re happy now but what about when you’re 50 and alone?” There’s only ONE thing guaranteed in your life: your relationship with yourself. So why is it that so many women are terrified of being alone? In this episode we discuss:How patriarchy uses tools like urgency and fear to spook us into dependence and distractionThe difference between being single and being sovereignWhy fearing being alone is a way of living on borrowed time4 ways to deprogram our fear of being alone ✨Hope you love it and can use this law to make your dreams come true.

Number 5: SUNDAY SCHOOL: How to fix feminism's branding problem
📚 AND don't forget to get your copy of How to Hack the Patriarchy on Amazon or get a signed paperback, PDF, or EPUB directly from me. Free preview available here. Fun fact: Feminism is a response to patriarchy. Baddies welcome to my new weekly mini-series, Sunday School, where I share a small lesson from my new book, How to Hack the Patriarchy. This one's from the introduction. Class is in session, and today we're discussing feminism's branding problem. Over the last few years, feminism's reputation has become severely damaged. If you say you're a feminist, get ready to be labelled an angry, man-hating, snowflake. What was once a widely accepted (and vital) social movement has now been reduced to a joke among men and an embarrassment among women. Why did this shift happen? And what can we do to shift this perception and get the show back on the road? Tune into this class to find out. __________ 🎙️ About the podcast: Patriarchal power runs like software.
