Is hormonal birth control affecting more than just pregnancy prevention? In this Habits and Hustle podcast episode, I am joined by Dr. Sarah Hill, an evolutionary psychologist and author who explains the surprising ways birth control pills influence women's brains, behavior, and mate selection. We discuss how synthetic hormones alter women's natural cycles, changing partner preferences and affecting emotional responses. We also explore the fascinating science behind mate selection through an evolutionary lens, why men are attracted to women at peak fertility, and how birth control can disrupt the pheromonal cues that influence attraction. Dr. Sarah Hill is an evolutionary psychologist, author, and researcher who earned her Ph.D. at the University of Texas at Austin working with Dr. David Buss. Her research focuses on understanding behavior and motivation through the lens of Darwin's theory of evolution by natural selection, with particular emphasis on women's psychology, hormones, and sexual motivation.

Husbands, partners, and jobs come and go, but close friendships are our bedrock. Until they're not. What happens when these bonds sabotage instead of support? Who among us has the courage to walk away? And how can we protect ourselves from further heartbreak? In her provocative new book, “Estranged: How Strained Female Friendships are Mended or Ended,” (Meridian Editions) well-known gender expert and bestseller Susan Shapiro Barash takes a deep dive into the complexities of female friendships. By peeling back the societal narrative that our friendships are meant to last forever, she uncovers a more nuanced reality: the closest bonds do falter. Through groundbreaking research and 150 interviews with women aged 20 to 80, Barash reveals an emerging trend — estrangement among female friends. She uncovered how these suboptimal friendships can impact mental health, why women avoid conflict even in damaging relationships, the emotional trauma of cutting ties with a friend and estrangement as a radical yet necessary act of self-preservation. She challenges women to reimagine their friendships and take the bold step of letting go when necessary. This cutting-edge book offers an empowering path forward: learning to prioritize self-worth, stability and authenticity over loyalty to friendships that no longer serve us. Barash has written several nonfiction books, including Tripping the Prom Queen, and A Passion for More: Affairs that Make or Break Us. She taught gender studies at Marymount Manhattan and has guest taught creative nonfiction at Sarah Lawrence's Writing Institute. She was featured in The New York Times, Wall Street Journal, New York Post, Chicago Tribune, Elle, Marie Claire, and has appeared on TODAY, Good Morning America, CBS, CNN, and MSNBC and as a guest on NPR and Sirius. She was a panelist for the New York State Council on the Arts, a judge for the International Emmys, and Vice Chair of the Mentoring Committee of the Women's Leadership Board at Harvard's JFK School of Government.

That deep, often unspoken discomfort some women feel when it comes to female friendships. This wound often shows up as subtle competition, betrayal, comparison, or that feeling of walking on eggshells with other women, and we're unpacking all of it! This one's mainly for the girls, but if you're a guy tuning in, don't skip it. You'll get a deeper understanding of how women experience connection, why some pull away from closeness, and how that shows up in relationships. We'll be diving into the brother wound next, so this lays the foundation perfectly.In a nutshell, we talk about:Why some female friendships feel unsafe and how to change thatHow “I just get along better with men” is often a defense mechanismWhat to do when a friend copies you but never gives creditThe hidden cost of being the “cool girl” in male spacesWhat healthy, nourishing female friendships actually look likeHow your relationship with women reflects your relationship with your own feminine energyWhy healing the sister wound helps you become emotionally available in loveEpisode Mentioned: #5 Understanding Wounded Feminine Energy VS Healthy Feminine EnergyShop our Merch: https://tr.ee/3yrykFuqEvWant to work with Bri and/or Courtney?Connect with Bri on Instagram: @buildingbricoachingConnect with Courtney on Instagram: @courtney_schandFollow the show on Instagram: @thefortheloveofmenpodcastCheck out our website: www.fortheloveofmenpodcast.com
In this enlightening episode of Healthy Mind, Healthy Life, we welcome Susan Shapiro Barash, trailblazer in gender studies and author of Estranged: How Strained Female Friendships Are Mended or Ended. Together, we unpack the often-taboo subject of female friendship breakdowns—why they happen, the emotional toll they take, and why letting go can be an act of self-love. Drawing insights from 150 interviews with women aged 20 to 80, Susan shares stories of betrayal, jealousy, and shifting values that lead to friendship estrangement. This episode invites listeners to reflect on their own relationships and offers permission to prioritize well-being over outdated notions of loyalty. About the Guest:Susan Shapiro Barash is a celebrated author and gender studies expert with over 14 non-fiction books, including Toxic Friends and Tripping the Prom Queen. Her latest book, Estranged, explores the hidden complexities of female friendships, revealing why some relationships fade and how women can navigate these shifts with grace and empowerment. Key Takeaways: Friendships aren't always forever—and that's okay. Betrayal, jealousy, and diverging values often fracture bonds. Letting go of toxic friendships is an act of courage, not failure. Women often avoid conflict in friendships due to cultural conditioning as "pleasers." Emotional healing from friendship loss requires self-reflection and self-compassion.

I know you are expecting an Office Hours episode today, BUT I couldn't wait until Monday to talk about the "White Lotus" finale.

In this raw and insightful episode, I sit down with the incredible Elisa Kurylowicz, former elite athlete, mindset coach, and host of the Elisa Unfiltered Podcast, to talk about the wound of feminine sisterhood—the ways in which women struggle to build, maintain, and repair deep, meaningful friendships. We unpack the hidden layers of competition vs. collaboration, the subconscious wounds many women carry from childhood, and how they manifest in adulthood—whether through betrayal, exclusion, or self-sabotage. Elisa shares her own experiences of deep sisterhood breakups, how they shaped her understanding of self-worth, and how she finally cut the cord on toxic dynamics that no longer served her. We also dive into: ✔️ The difference between self-awareness and intuitive awareness ✔️ How the need for external validation keeps us in unhealthy patterns ✔️ Why women struggle to say the thing—and how to break that cycle ✔️ The power of holding space vs. fixing others ✔️ The unseen impact of competition and rejection in female friendships ✔️ How to truly rebuild trust with other women and create deep, authentic connections ✔️ Why many women unconsciously keep themselves on the back burner in life and how to step into your own power If you've ever felt burned, disappointed, or disillusioned by female friendships, this episode is a MUST-listen.
