Patriarchy gets tossed around a lot.
The system was made by men for men who wanted to hold onto their possessions.
It has been this way for thousands of years. We’ve been conditioned to believe success means fitting into a structure that wasn’t made for women.
If it actually worked, why are so many people burned out, stressed, and still fighting for a seat at the table? In this episode of Earned Wisdom, Tracy Crossley breaks down how the patriarchal system keeps women stuck and how to change it.
It’s not about fighting harder—it’s about seeing the game for what it is and choosing a different way. You don’t need permission to redefine success, leadership, or power. You just need to stop believing in a system that will never work for you.
What You’ll Learn:
- Does anyone really benefit from the system?
- Patriarchal structures fuel burnout, competition, and emotional suppression
- Women are the way forward applying new meaning to success and leadership
- Your power to create a movement for yourself and generations to come.
"The system doesn’t hold you back—believing in it does." ~ Tracy Crossley
