Ever wonder what feminists mean by “the patriarchy?” It’s presented as the boogeyman in our culture, but what is it really and where did it come from? If you’ve always assumed this is just the way the world has always been, but you’re tired of being a “good girl” and instead crave being a whole, fully expressed woman, this episode is for you.

 

To unpack this concept, Eleanor is joined by Elise Loehnen, author of the New York Times Bestseller, On Our Best Behavior: The Seven Deadly Sins and the Price Women Pay to Be Good. They’re exploring its historical roots, how it manifests in modern women’s lives, and the true cost of constantly playing by society’s rules - rules that weren’t built for women in the first place.
