Listen on

Episode notes

This week, get ready for a bit of a rant. Because one of the things that I really get a bee in my bonnet about is the way society works, or more precisely doesn’t work, particularly for women, and why this is the cause of so much of our stress and overwhelm.

So today I want to unpick that. I want to show you that what you’re feeling is the product of what we’re surrounded by every single day. BUT - and this is important - I also want to show you that just because it comes from outside, it doesn't mean there’s nothing we can do about it. So we’ll also be getting into how you can start to change your perspective on all of this to give yourself the gift of less stress and overwhelm.

We’ll talk about:

-The have it all myth

-A working dynamic that no longer actually works for us

-The mental load that we carry

-Expectations around our bodies and what they should look like

-Health inequalities
