The Lean In and McKinsey & Company Women in the Workplace 2025 report claims that, for the first time, women are less likely than men to want a promotion, stating that 80% of women want to be promoted to the next level, compared to 86% of men. They label this development an “ambition gap”, stating that women are currently less ambitious than men. This label is wildly inaccurate, deeply offensive, and grossly irresponsible. Calling these findings an “ambition gap” is strategic reframing that places blame back on women, per usual, while letting broken systems (and the power players who uphold them) off the hook. When powerful institutions confuse correlation with causation and misdiagnose the problem like this, women pay the price. Again. These kinds of reports shape policy, leadership decisions, funding priorities, and how women are talked about at work. This label is not ok. It is harmful. The report assumes ambition is singular and linear, defined by traditional corporate ascent, and treats women's slower advancement or disengagement as a personal failure instead of a rational response to inequitable systems and poor resource allocation. Most critically, the report ignores caregiving realities entirely. You cannot meaningfully analyze women's ambition in 2025 without examining care infrastructures - or lack thereof. Choosing to ignore this is a distortion of reality. In other words, this is gaslighting. In this episode, I highlight other voices and data that were conveniently ignored. This counter data shows us what we already know - women are more ambitious than ever. Rather than seeking out a deeper understanding of the data, Lean In and McKinsey opted to report dirty diagnostics. What we know about data analysis is that to get to the real why, you have to dig deeper, think critically, and ask crucial questions of the actual people impacted. This didn't happen with this reporting. When you actually talk to women, the situation is clear. We are no longer willing to self-abandon inside systems that refuse to evolve. We know that to get to the reported 80%, we were required to work exponentially harder with fewer resources. This is proof of our ambition, resilience, and talent, not lack thereof. The headline is not about an ambition gap. The headline is that women are growing, evolving, and working smarter while institutions largely are not. In reality, what we are seeing is an institutional gap, a patriarchal gap, and a systems gap. The bottom line is this… If we want to truly understand the evolution of women's ambition, we need to start by examining the systems that punish it.

Riley Gaines is joined by Rob Farquharson from the Texas Attorney General's Office as they break down how the NCAA continues to posture publicly on women's sports while refusing to enforce reality behind the scenes. What began as Gaines vs. the NCAA has now escalated into Texas vs. the NCAA, as lawsuits target organizations that allowed men into women's sports while misleading athletes and the public. Rob explains the legal strategy driving these cases, including the consumer deception argument and a deposition moment where an NCAA representative refused to acknowledge basic biological facts, while Riley highlights the real harm women have suffered as a result - including athletes who were never told the truth about who they were competing against or living with. A clear-eyed conversation about why statements aren't enough anymore, and why Texas is stepping in where the NCAA won't. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices
In this episode of Mental Wealth, we take a deep dive into one of the most misunderstood forms of psychological harm: Emotional Abuse.

Thank you for sticking with me as I navigate life's transitions!In this episode, we break down:Defining the Undefinable: What emotional abuse actually is beyond the misconceptions.The 8 Faces of Abuse: A detailed look at Coercion, Gaslighting, Emotional Withholding, Isolation, Surveillance, Financial Control, Degradation, and Dominance.The "Why" Behind the Struggle: The psychological reasons why it is so difficult to leave an abusive environment.Steps to Freedom: How to begin the journey of recognition, stabilization, and breaking the isolation.If you have ever felt like you're walking on eggshells or questioning your own reality, this episode is for you. You are not alone, and there is a path to safety.
In this episode, I'm sharing a simple end-of-year practice I've returned to every year since 2017—one that has nothing to do with resolutions, goals, or fixing yourself.It started in a yoga class on New Year's Eve, during a time when my life was quietly falling apart. I was deeply depressed, circling the truth that I needed to leave my marriage, and trying to survive day to day. The exercise was simple: two cards. One for the year you're leaving. One for the year you're stepping into. Not achievements. Not intentions. Just words.I'm walking you through how this practice helped me tell the truth about what a year actually felt like—longing, fear, disconnection, grief—and how naming that reality grounded me instead of shaming me. When you've lived in abuse or survival mode, your inner compass gets scrambled. Your nervous system isn't thinking about the future. It's trying to stay safe. So when people ask about goals or resolutions, everything can freeze.This practice doesn't ask you to know the future. It asks you to tell the truth about the present.

In this quick update, Andrea shares a dream she had about Ukrainian dissident poet Vasyl Stus, killed in a Russian labor camp in the 1980s, and whose poetry and human rights campaigns helped lay the groundwork for a free Ukraine. In a time of rampant gaslighting, it's never been more important to believe our eyes and ears, and honor our intuition. Pay attention to your dreams; it will help you endure and overcome. If you're finding moments to rest and binge this holiday season, here are two documentary recommendations: First, Amy Berg's It's Never Over, Jeff Buckley, a haunting intimate tribute to the late musician whose voice and powerful songwriting are otherworldly. For something totally different, check out Murder in Monaco, a chilling true-crime documentary about the murder of mega-banker Edmund Safra. It exposes the Russian-mafia viper den of Monaco.

Gaslighting About the Hosts: Adam Thorne Psychology Today Profile: https://www.psychologytoday.com/profile/1441965 Andy Kemp Psychology Today Profile: https://www.psychologytoday.com/us/therapists/andrew-andy-kemp-bozeman-mt/879276 If you're struggling with manipulation, emotional abuse, or any mental health concerns, reach out to Adam or Andy for personalized support. Both offer free consultations—book yours today and take the first step toward trusting yourself again. As relationships deepen and challenges arise here in Bozeman, many of us experience that unsettling doubt—questioning our own memories, feelings dismissed as "overreactions," or wondering if we're truly "too sensitive." If this sounds familiar, you're not alone: it's gaslighting, a form of emotional manipulation that erodes your trust in your own perception of reality. In this enlightening episode of Forging Forward, host Adam Thorne and co-host Andy Kemp—two experienced therapists based right here in Bozeman—dive deep into gaslighting. They break down what it really is (beyond just "playing mind games"), explore common signs like denial of events, trivializing your feelings, outright lying, or shifting blame, and share evidence-based strategies to fight back. From setting firm boundaries and journaling incidents to rebuilding self-trust through therapy techniques, lifestyle adjustments, and knowing when professional help or distance is needed, Adam and Andy offer practical, hopeful insights drawn from their years helping clients navigate manipulative dynamics in relationships, work, or family. Whether you're noticing these patterns in yourself or someone you care about, tune in and start forging forward toward brighter, more authentic days!
This episode is not about fresh starts, resolutions, or manifesting a better year.It's for the people who feel heavy, uneasy, or scared as the year changes.I'm sharing honestly about what the end of the year felt like for me when my life didn't feel safe—when I was still inside emotionally abusive relationships, even though I didn't have that language yet. I talk about the dread that replaced reflection, the exhaustion of constant self-editing, the panic attacks, the private crying, the way I negotiated my own needs just to keep the peace.There are no tidy lessons here. This episode isn't meant to inspire you to do more or be better.We talk about:Why New Year's can feel threatening instead of hopeful when your life has felt unpredictable or unsafeHow emotional abuse intensifies during holidays and end-of-year reflectionThe slow realization of “I can't keep living like this” and why that isn't failureTrauma bonds, self-doubt, and the moment your body starts telling the truthWhy hope doesn't have to be loud to be realIf the bravest thing you can do right now is stop gaslighting yourself, this episode is for you.Support the showJoin the Patreon: https://patreon.com/Youarenotcrazy *New Course*: Unhooked: Map the Cycle of Abuse in your Relationship Website: Emotional Abuse Coach and high-conflictdivorcecoaching.comInstagram: @emotionalabusecoachEmail: jessica@jessicaknightcoaching.com{Substack} Blog About Recovering from Abuse {E-Book} How to Break Up with a Narcissist{Course} Identify Signs of Abuse and Begin to Heal{Free Resource} Canned Responses for Engaging with an Abusive Partner

Visitmalesurvivor.orgStaying Safe in Youth Law Enforcement Programs:If you or your child is involved in a Police Explorer program – or any youth mentorship run by law enforcement – there are steps you can take to reduce risk and create safer boundaries.Ask direct questions. Who runs the program? What are the policies around texting, ride-alongs, and one-on-one interactions? Are there rules that limit contact between adult officers and minors outside of scheduled events?Insist on transparency. Reputable programs should have clear, written guidelines about communication, supervision, and conduct. Ask to see them.Monitor ride-alongs. Know who your child is riding with, how long they're gone, and what the reporting procedures are.Watch the tech. Officers or advisors should never be Snapchatting, DMing, or texting minors privately. Monitor app usage and discuss healthy boundaries.Get involved. Show up to meetings. Get to know the adults running the program. Your presence as a parent or guardian helps make the space safer for everyone.Keep communication open. Let your child know they can talk to you about anything -- especially if something makes them uncomfortable. Make it clear that they won't be in trouble for speaking up.Getting Help:If you or someone you know has experienced abuse in a Police Explorer or similar youth program, here's what to do:Believe them. If a child or teen discloses abuse, believe what they say. Stay calm, listen, and affirm that it's not their fault. Praise them for coming forward.Report it. If the child is in danger, call 911. Otherwise, contact your local police, sheriff's department, or state child protection agency. If you're concerned local police might have a conflict of interest, contact your state police, state attorney general, or the FBI.Document/preserve everything. Save messages, screenshots, call logs — anything that could help support the report.Seek emotional support: Abuse by a trusted adult is incredibly disorienting. You and/or your child deserve compassionate care from someone trained in trauma -- like a therapist, school counselor, or crisis line advocate.Connect with survivor resources. Many organizations offer specialized support for young people.Consult legal counsel: Some survivors explore civil legal action against individuals or institutions. An attorney familiar with institutional abuse cases can help assess your options.Red Flags: Signs of Grooming or Abuse in Explorer Programs:Abuse by authority figures often begins with grooming -- a gradual, often-subtle process that builds trust before violating it. Here are common warning signs in youth law enforcement programs:“Special” treatment. One teen is singled out for attention, gifts, mentorship, or exclusive opportunities not given to others.Excessive one-on-one contact. Repeated private ride-alongs, late-night messages, or invitations to hang out off-duty.Private communication. The adult uses personal texting apps, Snapchat, Instagram DMs, or other unmonitored channels to talk to a minor.Overstepping/blurring boundaries. Inappropriate compliments, jokes about relationships, or sharing personal details not appropriate for a mentor-mentee dynamic.Isolation. The adult discourages the teen from talking to others about their relationship or makes the teen feel responsible for their secrecy.Gaslighting or guilt. The adult blames the teen for misunderstandings, manipulates their emotions, or makes them feel they'll “ruin someone's life” if they speak out.Physical contact. Touch that's unnecessary, prolonged, or makes the teen uncomfortable -- even if it's framed as casual or accidental.

Kim is back with life lessons, complaints, and a few unspoken rules we need to settle.In this episode, she reflects on a year in survival mode, realignment, and how a “no” from corporate life turned into a yes from Forbes 30 under 30. She breaks down why women feel behind — not because we are, but because we've stopped trusting our timeline and started negotiating with our intuition — and how hustle without direction leads straight to burnout. Kim unpacks what this year taught her about work, singlehood, and self-discipline: why output is not the same thing as impact, why alignment beats urgency, and why you need to surround yourself with doers, not thinkers.Kim's biggest takeaway?

In this episode of Sharing Without Shame, Donna Marston welcomes Darlene Lancer, licensed marriage and family therapist, author, and internationally recognized expert on codependency, shame, and emotional healing.With over 30 years of clinical experience, Darlene shares how shame often sits at the core of addiction, codependency, anxiety, depression, and unhealthy family dynamics—and why healing symptoms alone isn't enough.Together, Donna and Darlene explore how childhood experiences shape adult relationships, how families unintentionally pass down shame, and why setting boundaries is essential for both recovery and peace.In this episode, we discuss:- The difference between shame and guilt and why it matters- How childhood emotional suppression fuels codependency- Why addiction is often a form of self-soothing, not rebellion- The connection between shame, anxiety, and perfectionism- How families absorb and carry shame around addiction- Why enabling feels like love but often causes harm- Detachment, boundaries, and letting others experience consequences- Gaslighting, loss of self-trust, and emotional survival in addiction- Why healing must address the emotional, mental, spiritual, and physical selfDarlene also shares practical insights on recognizing inner criticism, rebuilding self-esteem, and beginning the process of releasing long-held shame.About the Guest:Darlene Lancer, JD, MFT is the author of Codependency For Dummies, Conquering Shame and Codependency, Dating, Loving, and Leaving a Narcissist, and several workbooks and healing resources.

Former President Donald Trump used a nationally televised address to blame Democrats and the Biden administration for inflation, border security and economic struggles, while claiming historic successes under his leadership. But key economic indicators and ongoing challenges for working-class families, particularly in Black and brown communities, raise serious questions about the accuracy of those claims.

The holiday season has a way of revealing what we've been trying to ignore. When the pressure to perform, host, or appear “happy” collides with the chaos of an emotionally abusive relationship, everything that's been buried rises to the surface.In this episode, I unpack why abuse patterns intensify around the holidays — and how to recognize the moment you finally see the cycle for what it is.I also share ways to start naming the truth, release self-blame, and reclaim your nervous system — even if you're still in the relationship.If this resonates, explore Unhooked private podcast and course on breaking the cycle of abuse, or connect for one-on-one coaching at emotionalabusecoach.comSupport the showJoin the Patreon: https://patreon.com/Youarenotcrazy *New Course*: Unhooked: Map the Cycle of Abuse in your Relationship Website: Emotional Abuse Coach and high-conflictdivorcecoaching.comInstagram: @emotionalabusecoachEmail: jessica@jessicaknightcoaching.com{Substack} Blog About Recovering from Abuse {E-Book} How to Break Up with a Narcissist{Course} Identify Signs of Abuse and Begin to Heal{Free Resource} Canned Responses for Engaging with an Abusive Partner
One of the most powerful weapons in difficult conversations isn't yelling, insults, or aggression — it's confusion. In this episode, I break down how confusion gets weaponized to avoid accountability, derail clarity, and exhaust you into giving up. You'll learn how to spot when confusion is genuine versus strategic, and exactly what to say to regain control, slow the conversation down, and protect your clarity without escalating the conflict.

High-control religious groups exploit gendered social programming, effectively priming women for coercive control via enforced submission, isolation, and lack of agency. This critical discussion draws sick parallels between traditional feminine roles and cult dynamics, noting how manufactured obedience prevents critical thinking and makes escaping high-control environments virtually impossible. We expose the insidious tactics like "love bombing" and false empowerment that strip genuine agency and trap people in cycles of destructive dogma.News Source:
In this episode of Crazy Wisdom, Stewart Alsop sits down with Javier Villar for a wide-ranging conversation on Argentina, Spain's political drift, fiat money, the psychology of crowds, Dr. Hawkins' levels of consciousness, the role of elites and intelligence agencies, spiritual warfare, and whether modern technology accelerates human freedom or deepens control. Javier speaks candidly about symbolism, the erosion of sovereignty, the pandemic as a global turning point, and how spiritual frameworks help make sense of political theater.Check out this GPT we trained on the conversationTimestamps00:00 Stewart and Javier compare Argentina and Spain, touching on cultural similarity, Argentinization, socialism, and the slow collapse of fiat systems.05:00 They explore Brave New World conditioning, narrative control, traditional Catholics, and the psychology of obedience in the pandemic.10:00 Discussion shifts to Milei, political theater, BlackRock, Vanguard, mega-corporations, and the illusion of national sovereignty under a single world system.15:00 Stewart and Javier examine China, communism, spiritual structures, karmic cycles, Kali Yuga, and the idea of governments at war with their own people.20:00 They move into Revelations, Hawkins, calibrations, conspiracy labels, satanic vs luciferic energy, and elites using prophecy as a script.25:00 Conversation deepens into ego vs Satan, entrapment networks, Epstein Island, Crowley, Masonic symbolism, and spiritual corruption.30:00 They question secularism, the state as religion, technology, AI, surveillance, freedom of currency, and the creative potential suppressed by government.35:00 Ending with Bitcoin, stablecoins, network-state ideas, U.S. power, Argentina's contradictions, and whether optimism is still warranted.Key InsightsArgentina and Spain mirror each other's decline. Javier argues that despite surface differences, both countries share cultural instincts that make them vulnerable to the same political traps—particularly the expansion of the welfare state, the erosion of sovereignty, and what he calls the “Argentinization” of Spain. This framing turns the episode into a study of how nations repeat each other's mistakes.Fiat systems create a controlled collapse rather than a dramatic one. Instead of Weimar-style hyperinflation, Javier claims modern monetary structures are engineered to “boil the frog,” preserving the illusion of stability while deepening dependency on the state. This slow-motion decline is portrayed as intentional rather than accidental.Political leaders are actors within a single global architecture of power. Whether discussing Milei, Trump, or European politics, Javier maintains that governments answer to mega-corporations and intelligence networks, not citizens. National politics, in this view, is theater masking a unified global managerial order.Pandemic behavior revealed mass submission to narrative control. Stewart and Javier revisit 2020 as a psychological milestone, arguing that obedience to lockdowns and mandates exposed a widespread inability to question authority. For Javier, this moment clarified who can perceive truth and who collapses under social pressure.Hawkins' map of consciousness shapes their interpretation of good and evil. They use the 200 threshold to distinguish animal from angelic behavior, exploring whether ego itself is the “Satanic” force. Javier suggests Hawkins avoided explicit talk of Satan because most people cannot face metaphysical truth without defensiveness.Elites rely on symbolic power, secrecy, and coercion. References to Epstein Island, Masonic symbolism, and intelligence-agency entrapment support Javier's view that modern control systems operate through sexual blackmail, ritual imagery, and hidden hierarchies rather than democratic mechanisms.Technology's promise is strangled by state power. While Stewart sees potential in AI, crypto, and network-state ideas, Javier insists innovation is meaningless without freedom of currency, association, and exchange. Technology is neutral, he argues, but becomes a tool of surveillance and control when monopolized by governments.

Many anxious and secure attached persons have dated avoidant attached persons who seemed really ready for a long term committed relationships until.... things got heavy. Many were left confused at their behaviours as some avoidant back-peddled, withdrew, seem to gaslight or altogether ghosted. In this episode, one of my guests shares her distress in trying to navigate her relationships as she tries to learn about her ex's behaviours, and her own. Give this a listen if you want to feel seen and validated while gaining some insights into the mind (and actions) of an avoidant attached person. I would love to hear your thoughts on this episode.

In my experience, the transformation you crave will initially make you feel like running. The Reiki and Spiritual industry often sells you permission to stay small. Meaning, you might feel like you've been going round in circles, trying super hard, but not feeling the way you want to in Reiki practise, in life. What You'll Discover By The End Of Listening To This Episode:-What "shocking authenticity" means for your growth - The uncomfortable truth about what true transformation requires, and how to recognize when a mentor is actually serving your growth versus selling you comfort.-The spiritual gaslighting you're probably doing to yourself right now - How the wellness industry conditions you to blame your own receptivity instead of questioning whether the teacher is actually delivering - and what to do about it.-What happens when you finally stop looking for the easy way - The exact moment transformation becomes possible - and why discomfort is the signal you're actually moving, not the sign you're doing it wrong.-The real difference between gentle compassion and spiritual bypassing - How to tell the difference between a mentor who's protecting you from hard work and one who's holding you accountable to the person you actually want to become.Spirit-led Reiki Pathway: https://www.reikiredefined.com/spirit-led-reiki-pathway/Free on demand workshop, Lifting the Veil on Reiki: https://www.reikiredefined.com/lifting-the-veil-on-reiki/Free online community: https://www.reikiredefined.com/free-community/You'll find me most on TT @reikiredefined & IG.

Everyone is afraid of rejection. Attraction equals attention. Do they pay attention to you? That's a big sign to begin the process of gauging interest in friendship. "Gaslighting" has gotten a bad reputation, but in the context of finding out if they like you back, it's a safer way to speed things up. If you get ghosted, then that's your sign it's a no-go, but it also ends the longing for something that may never happen. It shortens the game and gets you onto the next crush. This week, I talk about expressing interest without losing your mind. This is our final segment of Tarot for Singles. We'll end with sexy messages from your future soulmate.

Machtmissbrauch erkennen: Wo Macht zu Zwang wirdWas ist Machtmissbrauch wirklich?In dieser Folge des Female Leadership Podcasts spricht Vera Strauch mit Autorin Lena Marbacher darüber, wann Macht in Zwang kippt, warum Mobbing immer Gewalt ist, und weshalb Machtmissbrauch oft viel subtiler beginnt, als wir denken.Was ist Machtmissbrauch? Machtmissbrauch beginnt dort, wo Zwang entsteht – nicht nur körperlich, sondern psychisch (Mobbing, Gaslighting). Er ist selten ein spontaner Knall, sondern ein subtiler Prozess der Isolation, Destabilisierung und Delegitimierung des Opfers. Machtmissbrauch passiert nicht nur in extremen Fällen, die Schlagzeilen machen. Er beginnt oft viel früher, viel leiser – und genau deshalb bleibt er so häufig unsichtbar. In dieser Folge sprechen wir darüber, wann Macht in Zwang umschlägt, warum Mobbing psychische Gewalt ist, und weshalb viele Übergriffe unterhalb der Strafbarkeitsgrenze stattfinden – aber trotzdem krank machen. Gerade Mobbing verläuft selten offen. Es beginnt subtil: mit Kritik, Ausgrenzung, Abwertung, Bloßstellung oder dem systematischen Entzug von Arbeit und Anerkennung. Oft merken Betroffene erst spät – manchmal erst durch andere –, dass das, was sie erleben, kein normaler Konflikt, sondern Mobbing ist.Lena Marbacher bringt eine klare Arbeitsdefinition mit:Machtmissbrauch beginnt dort, wo Macht zu Zwang wird – und Zwang zu Gewalt.Du erfährst:Wie Machtmissbrauch entstehtWarum auch Kundinnen & Kolleginnen Macht missbrauchenWoran du subtile Grenzverletzungen erkennstWelche Verantwortung Organisationen habenWas dir hilft, wenn du betroffen bist oder zusiehstEine wichtige Folge über Macht, Verantwortung, Führung und Schutz – für alle, die Arbeit menschlicher gestalten wollen.+++Alle Links und Details der Episode findest du hier.Du willst noch mehr?

Dnes se totiž bavíme o emocích, vědomí a pravidlech sociálních her, které nám ve skutečnosti prozrazují víc o lidech a jejich uvažování, než kdo je zrádce a kdo ne.Rozebíráme, jak funguje konfirmační bias, authority bias, prestige bias a iluze transparentnosti - a proč se v psycho-hrách typu „Zrádci“ dějí stejné mentální zkratky jako v běžném životě: instalujeme filtry, hledáme důkazy, uzavíráme příběhy a zapomínáme, že smysl i pravda leží v integraci, ne v uzavření se do vlasntího příběhu.Tahle epizoda je o lidském prediktivním stroji, který chce mít ve všem jasno - i když žádné jasno není. O vztahu mozku a srdce, o entropii v sociálním prostoru a o tom, že:„Potřeba uzavřít příběh je někdy silnější než touha najít pravdu.“

James Comer whining that nobody will believe his upcoming Epstein report is the most unintentionally honest thing he's ever said. Public trust in Congress has evaporated after years of empty investigations, hollow promises, and political theater that never produces consequences. Comer acts shocked that people won't blindly accept whatever narrative he puts out, comparing the response to the Warren Commission like that's some badge of honor instead of a historic failure. He's mad not because people are irrational, but because the old playbook—grandstanding, dramatic press conferences, and meaningless “bombshells”—doesn't work anymore. The American public isn't buying “trust me bro” politics, and they're not applauding another expensive report destined to collect dust while the powerful walk free.Comer's outrage is nothing more than a tantrum from a politician terrified of losing control of the narrative. Instead of delivering real accountability, Congress consistently delivers nothing but smoke and excuses, and then blames the public for refusing to cheer. The reason nobody trusts Comer or his colleagues isn't conspiracy—it's track record. We've watched them talk a tough game, promise justice, and produce absolutely nothing, from Russiagate to every other so-called investigation that fizzled into nothing. The era of blind obedience is dead. If Comer wants belief, he needs results—not another worthless performance.
