We inherit shame like an unspoken family heirloom — stitched into our bodies, our ambition, our idea of enough. It's the quiet undertone behind so many brilliant women asking, “Why do I still feel like I'm not enough?”In this conversation, Jennifer Walter sits down with therapist and facilitator Kyira Wackett to unpack the hidden ways shame shapes our lives — from body image and burnout to perfectionism and belonging. Together, they explore how shame isn't just a feeling — it's a learned survival strategy. One we can unlearn.You'll hear about the difference between “good” and “bad” pain, why setting boundaries feels so hard, and how to start building shame resilience without burning yourself out.This episode is part psychology, part real talk — a compassionate deep dive into the quiet stories that keep women performing, proving, and people-pleasing.If you're tired of hustling for worth, this one's your permission slip to rest, reflect, and begin again.

Friend of the show Joey swings by to chat about the good and bad of this year's New York Comic Con, and conventions in general. Much nerdery ensues.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

This week Joy explains why she said something so crazy a few months back about how she prayed in faith for another child and God gave her one (what a crazy thing to say!). The post God Answers Our Prayers appeared first on Sheologians.

Testosterone treatments have been shown to increase sex drive in middle-aged women with low libido. But the FDA has not approved any such treatments, and doctors are reluctant to prescribe them. Susan Dominus, staff writer at the New York Times Magazine, shares her reporting on the subject, and talks about medical priorities and women's health.

The royal formerly known as "Prince" Andrew is only Andrew now. In what's being called 'the greatest crisis the royal family has faced in 100 years', the King has banished his brother after the distress and noise around his behaviour finally became too loud for even the insulated royals to ignore. So what now? Will it shut down critics and accusers, or just open the flood gates? Also, is it just plain embarrassing to admit to having a boyfriend now? The most viral essay of the past week says YES, so why's that? And: the politics of a pair of untethered breasts. Why Sydney Sweeney's new version of the naked dress has everyone confused.

Many Korean women face both institutional barriers and everyday cultural expectations. Life often feels mapped out in advance, and those who deviate from that path meet resistance or worse. Meanwhile, the media tends to celebrate only the rich and famous, making it harder to see the everyday heroes and role models who truly reflect women's lives in Korea. In this episode, I'm joined by Minyoung Kim, Victoria Yi, Sarah Soeun Lee, and Sangeun Kim — a team of writers behind a recently published bilingual book that shares real stories of women's experiences in Korea: their challenges, frustrations, families, dreams, and triumphs. Together, we talk about what it means to live honestly in a society that often prefers silence. Apologies for the sound issues in this one. It was a new set-up and mistakes were made. Hopefully you can still find value in the courage and ideas of the four women. Book Links

The 3WHH is a man down this week as John was unavailable, so Steve and Lucretia soldiered on without his ritual abuse of their superior taste in political philosophy, prudence, and natural law. And in the best fashion of Helen Andrews, Steve ran the episode even though it was Lucretia's turn on the host rotation calendar. We could have called this episode "Revenge of the Manosphere."Steve and Lucretia consider a few news headlines, and some major stories conspicuously not making headlines* (such as the Houise investigation of the White House conspiracy to cover up Joe Biden's senility), who Bill Kristol supports in the NY City mayor's race (you'll never guess), whether the climate cult is over, and alarm bells about rising anti-Israel sentiment among young conservatives. (We recorded before the Kevin Roberts video went live, however.)And then we arrive at the main topic of the day: Lucretia defending herself against charges of "lookism." Steve enlists an expert witness: the great Taki Theodoracopulos, who wrote way back in 1981 that American women were the ugliest in the world. Seems like the perfect topic for the week when the world discovered the Jennifer Welch, the Democrats' newest It-Girl. (And naturally, the exit music this week is "Ugly Women," by country musician Grant Langston.)* Yes, that sentence is a sly reference to a light bulb joke: How many Straussians does it take to change a light bulb? None: the light is made conspicuous by its absence. (IYKYK, otherwise you don't get Plato.)

Daniah Greenberg is the founder of the Tree of Life Translation of the Holy Bible. A wayward Catholic with Jewish ancestry, she came to faith in Messiah Yeshua, Jesus Christ, during her college years when she ended up lost in a jail cell.

She has appeared on TBN Praise, Point of View Radio, Jewish Voice, Cornerstone, CBN, Daystar, God’s Learning Channel, Watchman Broadcasting and preached at hundreds of churches, synagogues, conferences and retreats.

This week's episode is sponsored by God's grace. Jola & FK are joined by Blessing Omakwu, the CEO of The She Tank, a gender-equality evangelist, and a really knowledgeable theologian. The girls get into the dicey topic of balancing one's faith and feminism; if these concepts are entirely antithetical to one another, OR if religious text is actually more feminist than we believe. They shed light on our favourite Bible stories and on how much nuance is required in the pursuit of Christ. They also tackle some really dicey dilemmas about a couple who co-own a thriving business. Still, one half always takes all the credit, and the dynamics of growing up in a home with separated parents. We hope this episode makes you think deeply & laugh even more.

Send us a textYou know that fantasy where your kid looks up from their tablet and says, “Sure, Mom, I'd love to play outside!” Yeah… me neither. That's why I called in Katherine Martinko, author of Childhood Unplugged and professional voice of reason, to talk about how to get our kids (and let's be honest, ourselves) off the screens without moving to the woods or starting a commune.Katherine lives what she calls a “digital minimalist” lifestyle. No TV. No tablets. Her three boys don't even have phones yet, and somehow, they're thriving. She's not anti-tech; she just believes it should be a tool, not a toy. And after reading her book and chatting with her, I'm officially rethinking my own Wi-Fi dependency.We dive into what's really going on with kids and screens, why they're so hard to resist, how they're rewiring our kids' brains, and why your kid probably spends less time outside than an inmate (yes, really). Katherine breaks down how parents can build environments that make the analog world more appealing, without guilt, shame, or pretending we're perfect Montessori moms.There's also a fascinating discussion about feminism and screen time, because apparently, trying to raise unplugged kids can feel like one more impossible standard for women to live up to. Katherine brings nuance, compassion, and a ton of practical strategies for reclaiming your kids' attention span (and maybe your own).What's Inside: How to create a home that encourages play and creativity without screens The shocking truth about how little outdoor time kids actually get When to let your teen have a phone (and why social media should wait until adulthood) Why emotional regulation starts offline and how to help kids reconnect with the real worldWhat does “connected” really mean to you? Is it scrolling beside your kid on the couch or actually laughing together over a board game? Swapping the scroll for real-life connection could change your whole family vibe. So tell me, what would your version of a screen-free day look like?

Conceptual performance artist and activist Nadya Tolokonnikova is the creator of Pussy Riot, a global feminist art movement. She was sentenced in 2012 to 2 years' imprisonment following an anti-Putin performance Punk Prayer. Punk Prayer was named by The Guardian among the best art pieces of the 21st century. Tolokonnikova's Putin's Ashes art installation at Jeffrey Deitch Gallery in January 2023 propelled her into a new criminal case and put on Russia's most wanted criminal list. In 2024 her debut museum exhibition RAGE, opened at OK Linz, Linz, Austria, and the eponymous performance piece performed at the Neue Nationalgalerie in Berlin. In 2025, Tolokonnikova has solo shows at Honor Fraser gallery (Los Angeles), Nagel Draxler (Berlin) and MOCA (Los Angeles). She and I discuss memory, books, Environmental consciousness, young motherhood, Feminism, how to run from the police and protect yourself as an activist, equality, being a mom, survival mechanisms, freedom of thought, how criticism does not equal hate, making things better, how people are not even trying, spreading something good, how paradise is within you, radical activism, the minuscule audience for contemporary art, places of liberation, enchanted and magical art balanced with the raw, and not being dumber than AI, ideas first, thinking while walking, what's the future of creativity, solidarity, moments of gratitude, making things beautiful, and imagining the impossible!
