A podcast for feminists who feel overwhelmed and exhausted by everything we need to get done in 2020, and still worry that we're not doing enough - hosted by Emily and Amelia Nagoski, authors of BURNOUT: the secret to unlocking the stress cycle.
Listeners of Feminist Survival Project 2020 that love the show mention: thank you emily, sisters, goodness, therapy, 2020, actionable, life changing, practical, witty, intelligent, helpful, behind, care, women, fresh, important, smart, advice, understand, insightful.
The Feminist Survival Project 2020 podcast is an incredible resource for anyone seeking to navigate the challenges of the year. This podcast provides a fresh perspective and offers hope when it may seem scarce. The hosts, Emily and Amelia Nagoski, deliver excellent content that is both informative and entertaining. As an informal mentor in the mental health field, I have found this podcast to be stimulating and thought-provoking, sparking discussions on issues that are near and dear to my heart.
One of the best aspects of The Feminist Survival Project 2020 podcast is the wide range of topics covered. From burnout to relationships to mental health, Emily and Amelia dive deep into important subjects with empathy and understanding. They provide evidence-based information and practical advice that can be applied in everyday life. Additionally, their witty banter and genuine rapport make listening to this podcast enjoyable and relatable. It's like having a conversation with close friends who truly understand your struggles.
Another standout aspect of this podcast is the book recommendations provided by Emily and Amelia. They not only recommend books that are relevant to each episode's topic but also give honest assessments of their helpfulness or potential harm. This saves listeners from wasting time on books that may not be beneficial for their specific needs. Their suggestions show a thoughtful consideration for those who may be healing from childhood trauma or other sensitive issues.
While there are many positive aspects of The Feminist Survival Project 2020 podcast, one potential downside could be the occasional use of jargon or language that may not resonate with all listeners. However, I appreciate that the hosts actively seek to introduce new language and concepts in episodes discussing intuition and body sensation reclamation. This demonstrates their commitment to inclusivity and ensuring that everyone feels seen and understood.
In conclusion, The Feminist Survival Project 2020 podcast is a valuable resource for anyone seeking support, empowerment, and knowledge in navigating the challenges faced in today's world. Emily and Amelia Nagoski have created a podcast that is both informative and entertaining, providing evidence-based information, practical advice, and thought-provoking discussions. Their genuine rapport and witty banter make listening to this podcast a joy, while their book recommendations ensure that listeners can further explore the topics discussed. I highly recommend this podcast to anyone seeking personal growth, healing, or simply a fresh perspective on life's struggles.

An Alternative to Hope: Or, The Secret Medicine for When the Thing With Feathers Stop Singing I was inspired to make this video obviously because of John Green's June 25th video, where he talks about taking a break from making videos because: depression, and he concludes with his familiar assurance that despair is a lie, hopelessness is a lie, that life is meaningful, and your life matters. He says he's going to spend the month of July reminding himself that Emily Dickinson was right, “that hope is the thing with feathers that perches in the soul and sings the tune without the words and never stops at all.” Emily's Youtube (The source for this episode) John's video Amelia's response to my response Read this post on my newsletter here Sonya Renee Taylor "A Prayer for the Collective" (google doc) On the “Metaverse”: Rich White Men Looking to Escape the World They Created "How We Hope" by Adrienne Martin (excellent book)
