What happens when the trauma you survived as a kid splits you into parts you don't even know are there?In this episode I sit down with AnnaLynne McCord, the 90210 star who went public about her assault years before Me Too and later revealed her dissociative identity disorder diagnosis, to explore why childhood trauma fractures your identity.We talk about why she was first diagnosed as bipolar, how her DID diagnosis cracked open memories she'd buried, what it was like to have co-consciousness with different parts of herself, and how she went from 90% dysregulation to 90% peace.We also explore why Hollywood warned her that honesty would end her career, the 70-year-old woman who finally accepted herself after hearing AnnaLynne speak, why boys are taught to shut their hearts down, and the one thing she believes most people spend their lives avoiding.But underneath the headlines, this conversation is about something much more personal.Why we build a version of ourselves to survive a world that felt unsafe. How a tough, fearless exterior can hide someone who believes they're weak. And what it actually takes to stop running from what you feel.Because the fracture came from an absence of love. And the only thing that puts you back together is love.AnnaLynne McCord is an actress best known for her role in 90210, and a longtime advocate against human trafficking who has spoken at the United Nations. She speaks openly about trauma, mental health and her DID diagnosis, and leads healing retreats around the world.If you're struggling, please reach out:US: call or text 988Australia: Lifeline 13 11 14UK: Samaritans 116 123Timestamps: (00:00) Introduction: DID and Fragmentation(00:17) Meet AnnaLynne McCord(00:34) Misconceptions and Masks(04:43) Tailoring Identity for Approval(09:00) Homeschooling and Early Independence(12:42) Industry Pressure to Stay Perfect(14:14) Speaking Out on Assault and DID(19:52) Turning Pain Into Purpose(24:23) Heart Led Masculinity(29:32) Boys and Emotional Conditioning(32:57) Honoring Men at the UN(36:26) Trafficking Speech Pushback(38:49) Masculine and Feminine Balance(40:49) Reactive Systems and Labels(41:34) Sponsor Break Move Your Mind(42:24) Trauma Misdiagnosis to Healing(45:33) Finding Peace Through Integration(49:34) Advice to Her Teen Self(51:32) Stop Avoiding EmotionsJoin the Move Your Mind Community:go.nickbracks.com/mymcommunityConnect with Nick:Instagram: https://instagram.com/nickbracksWebsite: http://nickbracks.comEmail: contact@nickbracks.comConnect with AnnaLynne: Instagram: @theannalynnemccordWebsite: theannalynnemccord.com Hosted on Acast.

What does it really mean to speak up—and what happens when telling the truth comes at a cost?In this special episode of Psychologists Off the Clock, Jill Stoddard and Yael introduce Jill's powerful new podcast, We the Sunlight, a show about the brave act of speaking up in a culture that too often rewards silence. Then, listeners get an exclusive preview of the first episode, featuring Jules Bindi, one of the first women to publicly share that she was sexually assaulted by Harvey Weinstein before the #MeToo movement began.Jules shares her story—from growing up surrounded by trauma and abuse to building a successful career as a massage therapist to Hollywood's elite. She describes the grooming, manipulation, and sexual assaults she experienced at the hands of one of the most powerful men in the entertainment industry, as well as the complicated question that haunted her afterward: Why did she go back?Together, Jill and Jules explore the complex survival responses that can make victims blame themselves, including fawning, appeasing, and attempting to maintain safety in the face of overwhelming power. Jules also shares what finally helped her come forward, what she feared would happen if she spoke publicly, and why she ultimately decided that staying silent came at too high a cost.You'll hear about shame, self-forgiveness, post-traumatic growth, and the complicated reality of speaking truth to power. Most importantly, Jules offers a powerful message to anyone considering whether to come forward—and to those who have already spoken up and are living with the consequences.Join us for this moving introduction to We the Sunlight and the story of one woman who discovered that courage doesn't mean speaking without fear. Sometimes, it means deciding that something matters more than staying silent.Listen and Learn:The story behind Jill's new podcast, We the Sunlight, and how her own experience speaking publicly about a family member who caused harm inspired her to create a show centered on truth-tellingWhy speaking up can be both deeply meaningful and incredibly costly—and how people weigh the potential consequences before deciding whether to come forwardJules Bindi's journey from a childhood shaped by abuse and trauma to becoming a successful massage therapist with high-profile celebrity clientsHow Harvey Weinstein used power, praise, promises, and manipulation to groom Jules and exploit the enormous power imbalance between themWhy survivors may continue contact with or return to someone who has harmed them—and how survival responses such as fawning and appeasing can complicate our understanding of traumaWhy asking, “Why did they go back?” can fuel shame and self-blame when survivors are already struggling to understand their own responsesHow fear of retaliation, public scrutiny, victim-blaming, and professional consequences can make speaking out against a powerful person feel nearly impossibleWhat ultimately motivated Jules to come forward publicly and later participate in the legal case against WeinsteinHow becoming a mother helped Jules reconsider what she would want her own daughter to do if she were ever harmedWhy Jules says she experienced fewer negative consequences from speaking up than she expected—and how speaking publicly allowed her to put down some of the weight she had carried in silenceThe difference between taking responsibility for someone else's harmful actions and finding meaning in the ways we choose to respond afterwardHow Jules has transformed her experiences into advocacy, supporting other survivors and teaching children about bodily autonomy and personal boundariesWhy self-forgiveness can be one of the most difficult—and meaningful—parts of healingWhat to consider if you are wrestling with whether to speak up, including the question of what it may cost you to stay silentJules' message to those already living through the difficult aftermath of coming forward: celebrate your courage, care for yourself, and remember that the intensity of the moment will not last foreverWhy all of us can support survivors by resisting the urge to judge, question, or shame them for the ways they responded to traumaResources:We the Sunlight podcastJules Bindey / EQ Kid BooksMy Body, My Rules by Jules BindiThe Harmony Hills children's book seriesAsk Before Touching MeIt's Okay for Me to Say NoAbout Jules Bindi:Jules Bindi is an entrepreneur, emotional intelligence advocate, author, and storyteller dedicated to helping people heal, develop stronger boundaries, and use their voices.After experiencing sexual assault by Harvey Weinstein, Jules eventually became one of the first women to publicly share her story before the #MeToo movement gained widespread momentum. Her decision to come forward was motivated not only by her own experience, but by a desire to support other survivors and help create greater accountability for people who abuse their power.Today, Jules works with survivors who are navigating the difficult process of reporting abuse and coming forward. She also teaches children about bodily autonomy, boundaries, and emotional intelligence through her children's publishing company, EQ Kid Books.She is the author of My Body, My Rules and the creator of The Harmony Hills series, which helps children learn that they have ownership over their bodies and the right to set boundaries and say no.About Jill Stoddard:Dr. Jill Stoddard is passionate about providing clients, audiences, and readers with transformative experiences that are based in the latest psychological science but translate to everyday skills for flourishing at work and in life. She is an international and TEDx speaker, award-winning former professor, three-time book author, entrepreneur, licensed psychologist, coach, and professional podcaster. Her former show, Psychologists Off the Clock, was ranked in the top .5% worldwide and was the number one clinical psychology podcast according to Feedspot. Her latest passion project, We the Sunlight, offers a platform for truthtellers to shine a light on crime. Her books have been translated into more than a dozen languages and include: The Big Book of ACT Metaphors; Be Mighty; and Imposter No More. She is a standing-ovation-commanding speaker (ok, that's only happened twice so far, but it's her goal for every talk!). She regularly appears on podcasts and as an expert source for various tv and print media outlets. She has written for or been quoted in Time, the Washington Post, New York Times, Woman's World, Today.com, Psychology Today, The San Diego Union Tribune, The Boston Globe and more. Her work centers on the simple but powerful belief that discomfort isn't a sign that something's gone wrong, it's a sign you're right where you are meant to be -- at the intersection of caring and challenge. She lives in Newburyport, MA with her husband, two kids, and disobedient French Bulldog. About We the Sunlight:What happens when you risk everything to tell the truth?We the Sunlight is a podcast about the brave act of speaking up in a culture that too often rewards silence. From whistleblowers to victims of crime to people intimately connected to those who have caused harm, each episode features raw, personal stories from people who faced high stakes to speak their truth.Guests share why they came forward, what they considered before speaking up, what it cost them, whether they regret their decision, and how radical transparency became part of their healing. The show is grounded in the belief that truth can illuminate, stories can heal, and—as the saying goes—sunlight is the best disinfectant. We just shouldn't have to shine it alone.Related Episodes:19.

Komikeren Brian Mørk er en mand, som man lægger mærke til, hvis man bare engang imellem bevæger sig ind på de sociale medier. Dét er på trods af, at han for få år siden var helt ude i kulden. Med ét opslag på X blev han – under MeToo – decideret cancelled. Men nu giver han den fuld gas med jokes og sketches, der særligt udstiller ‘den skøre venstrefløj’. En fløj, han tidligere selv har tilhørt. Hvad siger Brian Mørks ‘rejse’ om den tid, vi står i lige nu? Det dykker vi ned i i dagens afsnit. Vært: Joachim B. Olsen, debatredaktør på B.T.

Une école privée s'ouvre à la mixité Aujourd'hui, en Seine-Saint-Denis, une école de filles accueille pour la première fois quelques garçons. J'enseigne dans ce lycée depuis quinze ans et j'en ai longtemps eu honte : un lycée privé, catholique, et en prime, non-mixte, à rebours de toutes mes convictions. Mais, contre toute attente, mes élèves m'ont fait découvrir la manière dont elles subvertissaient ce lieu pour en faire un espace d'émancipation. Dans mon lycée de filles, où les élèves sont de toutes origines et de toutes religions, les filles prennent la parole, occupent tout l'espace, font du foot et sont fortes en maths et en sciences. Dans les couloirs, il n'est pas rare de voir des élèves se balader avec des bouillottes pour soulager leur douleur de règles, ou s'envoyer des serviettes hygiéniques à travers la salle de classe. Alors, quand on apprend l'arrivée des garçons, on décide de mettre en place un atelier de réflexion pour préserver les libertés exceptionnelles qu'offrait la non-mixité. Et notre lycée devient une sorte de laboratoire pour inventer cette mixité qui commence chez nous, en pleine quatrième vague du féminisme. On écrit une charte et on propose des ateliers pour éduquer les plus jeunes. Et puis, les garçons arrivent. La première année, ils ne sont que trente au collège, huit au lycée, au milieu de cinq cents filles. Les ateliers commencent à infuser dans l'établissement. On parle de plus en plus d'égalité, de lutte contre le sexisme, de féminisme. Mais les stéréotypes de genre pointent aussi déjà le bout de leur nez. Le foot occupe l'espace central de la cour, il y a des bagarres au collège et plus de casse qu'avant. Des enseignants disent que « les garçons mettent la patate, sont plus dynamiques », ou que « les filles se font remarquer pour plaire aux garçons »… Tous ces clichés arrivent au galop. Est-ce que l'on va réussir à construire une mixité égalitaire et émancipatrice ? Une mixité post-MeToo ? Pour aller plus loin : - Des filles chez les garçons, l'apprentissage de la mixité, Geneviève Pezeu, éditions Vendémiaire, 2020 ; - La pensée straight, Monique Wittig (1992), édition Balland, 2001 ; - La Volonté de changer. Les hommes, la masculinité et l'amour, bell hooks, Éditions divergences, 2021 ; - Pour Britney, Louise Chennevière, édition POL, 2024 ; - Les Guérillères, Monique Wittig, Editions de Minuit, 1969 ; - Centre Hubertine Auclert. Remerciements : Je remercie toutes mes élèves et en particulier les filles (et le garçon !) de l'atelier pour leur participation enthousiaste, leur combativité et leur humour. Merci à toutes les personnes qui m'ont accordé leur confiance en acceptant d'être enregistrées, même si elles ne sont pas toujours présentes dans la version finale. Merci à l'équipe de Charles Péguy d'avoir soutenu ce projet, en particulier à Agnès Isaac, Guillaume Marie et Isabelle Marmasse. Merci à l'équipe d'Arte de m'avoir accompagné et fait confiance. Merci enfin à mes ami-e-s pour leurs soutiens et tous nos échanges qui ont nourri ce projet, en particulier Cécile Casen, Elsa Perry, Haydée Parcollet, Cédric Schönwald, et Fabien Gerbal.

What happens when going back to work .... feels like a break?You drink a coffee while it's still hot. You finish a thought without being interrupted. People ask your opinion about something that has absolutely nothing to do with sleep schedules. You use parts of your brain you were starting to wonder still existed.And then comes the guilt. Shouldn't I want to be home?Why does this feel easier than being with my child?In Episode 5 of Why Did Nobody Tell Me This?, we're talking about the complicated, contradictory and deeply personal experience of returning to work after becoming a mother.there is no “right” way to feel about it. Some mothers grieve leaving their children.Some feel relieved. Some desperately want to return and then find the reality heartbreaking. Some don't want to return at all. And plenty of us feel all of those things at different times.We explore why work can become about much more than work after motherhood. It can be access to competence, identity, adult conversation, autonomy, purpose, regulation  and a version of ourselves that existed before somebody called us Mum.We also talk about the guilt women can carry for needing something outside motherhood to feel fulfilled, and the quiet belief that if we were good enough mothers, motherhood should somehow be enough.motherhood isn't asking us to choose between caring for our children and caring for ourselves, we're continually learning how both can coexist.

What happens when public opinion shifts faster than the law? In What Happens When the Overton Window Expands?, host Jack Russo examines how #MeToo changed the legal landscape surrounding sexual misconduct without necessarily rewriting the statutes themselves. Using Harvey Weinstein's long-running litigation as a case study, Jack explores how changing social expectations can influence prosecutorial discretion, jury attitudes, civil litigation, and the willingness to pursue decades-old allegations. Yet appellate courts remain a critical counterweight, enforcing evidentiary rules and procedural limits even when public pressure runs high. The discussion also looks at how civil discovery can expose evidence that later fuels criminal cases, and why elite defense teams often find their strongest opportunities at trial or on appeal rather than sentencing. Where might the Overton Window move next as technology, deepfakes, and corporate accountability create entirely new legal questions?

I greet you in Jesus' precious name! It is Monday morning, the 28th of September, 2026, and this is your friend, Angus Buchan, with a thought for today. We go straight to the Book of Psalms 23:3-4:“He restores my soul;He leads me in the paths of righteousnessFor His name's sake.Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death,I will fear no evil;For You are with me; Your rod and Your staff, they comfort me.”Then we go straight to the Gospel of Luke 9:23: ”Then He said to them all, “If anyone desires to come after Me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross daily, and follow Me.” We are on a journey, folks, every single one of us, young and old. I don't care whether you are 9 or 90, but we are on a journey! Some of us have got a lot of miles behind us, others have got a lot of miles in front of us, but we are on a journey. I listened to a beautiful old gospel song, sung by a lady by the name of Dotty Rambo, just a short while ago and these words just touched me so deeply: Too many miles behind meToo many trials are throughToo many tears help me to rememberThere's just too much to gain to lose.Too many sunsets behind the mountainToo many rivers my feet have walked throughToo many treasures are waiting over yonderThere's too much to gain to lose.Isn't that beautiful? There is no turning back for you and me. No, no - we are not going back to Egypt. We are not going back to the old life, no. We have come too far, much too far. Do you remember that beautiful book, the Pilgrim's Progress? Some say it is the second most well-known, well-read book, next to the Bible itself, written by John Bunyan and released in 1678. Wow! That is a long time ago. John Bunyan was a non-conformist. In other words, he was a man who loved Jesus Christ. He would not conform to any church government type doctrine. He loved the Lord. He spent a long time in jail, and he wrote this book in Bedford, in England, while in jail. The Pilgrim's Progress - a journey of a Christian, a man by the name of Christian, making his way to the Celestial City, which is Heaven, and all the pitfalls and the hardships that he went through, carrying his little bundle with him, all the way to Heaven.Today, remember, there is too much to gain to lose. God bless you. Have a wonderful day, goodbye.

P.M. Edition for Sept. 25. The Supreme Court said today that Trump administration officials could use an expanded federal immigration database to check whether voters are citizens, which some states want to use to scrub voter rolls. Plus, the Ukraine war is stopping grain exports from getting out of the Black Sea, sending U.S. wheat futures to three-year highs. We hear from Journal reporter Alexander Osipovich about what the disruptions could mean for food prices and the global food supply. And a debut novel by Canadian-Haitian writer Thélyson Orélien was nominated for some of the top literary prizes in France… until accusations that the author used AI sparked controversy. Reporter Anna Silman discusses how the publishing world is handling the rise of AI. Alex Ossola hosts. Sign up for the WSJ's free What's News newsletter. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

When the Taiwanese political drama Wave Makers appeared in April 2023, few anticipated its impact beyond the screen. Within weeks, survivors in politics, the media, academia and the arts began sharing experiences of sexual harassment and assault, giving momentum to Taiwan's long-delayed #MeToo movement. XinLing Li's new book, Wave Makers and the Rise of #MeToo in Taiwan: Media, Empathy, and Digital Testimony (Anthem Press, 2026), asks how a fictional series became a cultural catalyst. Li argues that the drama gave form to experiences that had remained unspoken, while social media allowed personal testimony to circulate without institutional permission. The book is part of the new short-book series, ‘Anthem Impact in Asian Media, Cinema and Communications'. In this podcast, Dr Ming-yeh T. Rawnsley talks with Dr Li about television, empathy, digital testimony, and the opportunities and inequalities within Taiwan's #MeToo movement. Themes include: Why Taiwan's #MeToo movement came late - the gap between progressive laws and the cultural conditions that still discourage survivors from speaking.The ‘perfect victim' - how Wave Makers challenges the assumption that only women who conform to conventional ideas of femininity deserve belief and justice.The feminist snap - why the line ‘Let's not just let it go this time' gave viewers a language for recognising accumulated injustice.Empathy and narrative identity - how fictional characters help audiences interpret their own experiences and respond to others.Digital testimony and affective publics - how social media weakens traditional gatekeeping while introducing new risks and struggles for attention.Women's solidarity - how the drama examines agency, family relationships and the historical expectation that women define themselves through men.The limits of visibility - why migrant domestic workers remain especially vulnerable and often unable to speak without risking their livelihoods or immigration status. One of the book's most compelling arguments is that art can give structure to what Raymond Williams called ‘emergent feelings': experiences without an accepted public language. Through recognisable characters and an accessible story, Wave Makers transformed a familiar instruction to remain silent – ‘just let it go' – into a shared refusal. The podcast also considers how the hashtag changes testimony. Survivors can now address audiences directly, rather than relying entirely on journalists and other institutional gatekeepers. Yet visibility remains uneven. Stories involving celebrities and senior politicians attract attention more readily than those of migrant domestic workers, who may face dismissal, loss of visa status or deportation if they speak publicly. Li is cautious about treating Wave Makers as a formula for political change. No television programme can produce a movement on demand. Popular culture can nevertheless offer language and recognition when audiences are ready to respond. The story of Wave Makers is ultimately about the unpredictable movement between fiction and public life: a drama helped people recognise experiences they had been encouraged to dismiss, while digital platforms allowed the words ‘me too' to become testimony, solidarity and action.Dr Ming-yeh T. Rawnsley is a Research Associate at the Centre of Taiwan Studies, SOAS University of London, and a host for the New Books Network. She is also a co-editor (with Professor Gary Rawnsley) of the short-book series, ‘Anthem Impact in Asian Media, Cinema and Communications'. Dr Xinling Li is an independent scholar based in New York.

La proposition de "loi intégrale" a été votée en commission parlementaire et les débats sur le texte vont commencer le 1er octobre dans l'hémicycle de l'Assemblée nationale. Conçue pour lutter "à 360 degrés" contre ce fléau qui fait régulièrement les gros titres de la presse, elle se veut complète : prévention, formation et réparation. Au total, 69 articles pour mieux définir les violences sexistes et sexuelles, les encadrer davantage et prendre enfin à bras le corps un phénomène de société dont la France n'arrive pas à se défaire. La documentariste Cécile Delarue et l'avocate Violaine de Filippis Abate, porte-parole de la Coalition féministe loi intégrale, reviennent sur les avancées attendues et sur les angles morts du dispositif.

Featuring personal essay, manifesto, creative nonfiction, and poetry, Tsunami: Women's Voices From Mexico (Feminist Press, 2025) gathers the multiplicity of voices being raised in Mexico today against patriarchy and its buried structures. Tackling gender violence, community building, #MeToo, Indigenous rights, and more, these writings rock the core of what we know feminism to be, dismantling its Eurocentric roots and directing its critical thrust towards current affairs in Mexico today.Asserting plurality as a political priority, Tsunami includes trans voices, Indigenous voices, Afro-Latinx voices, voices from within and outside academic institutions, and voices spanning generations. Tsunami is the combined force and critique of the three feminist waves, the marea verde (“green wave”) of protests that have swept through Latin America in recent years, and the tides turned by insurgent feminisms at the margins of public discourse.Guest: Gabriela Jauregui's books include Feral, Many Fiestas, and La memoria de las cosas.

Alfred Hitchcock remains one of the most influential filmmakers in cinema history—but how much of what we believe about Hitchcock is history, and how much is mythology?On Speaking of Writers, Steve Richards sits down with British filmmaker and author Tony Lee Moral to discuss A Century of Hitchcock: The Man, the Myths, the Legacy.Tony revisits Hitchcock's extraordinary career, his groundbreaking approach to suspense, his creative collaborators, and the controversies that have shaped his reputation—including the long-running narratives surrounding Tippi Hedren and biographer Donald Spoto.It's a fascinating conversation about filmmaking, memory, biography, evidence, reputation, and what it means to reassess a legendary artist in the post-#MeToo era.#SpeakingOfWriters #TonyLeeMoral #AlfredHitchcock #ACenturyOfHitchcock #Hitchcock #FilmHistory #Cinema #ClassicHollywood #FilmScholar #BookPodcast #AuthorInterview #MovieHistory #TippiHedren #DonaldSpoto #MasterOfSuspense

You figure out you're dreaming, and instead of waking up, you decide to see just how far down this dream goes. You walk to the middle of the room and you drop straight through the floor on purpose, because a hundred people online swore that's how you get somewhere better. Problem is, you didn't get anywhere better, and now you're nowhere, in a place with no floor, no walls, no light, no body, just you and the black and the slow, sinking understanding that you don't know the way back, and nothing out here is going to wake you up.That is lucid dreaming. A dream-walking technique that allows people to freely control and navigate their own dreams. A feeling people chase on purpose, and a skill everybody wants, not realizing that like all things in life, it has an undeniable dark side that is often overlooked.

One of the biggest surprises of motherhood wasn't just how much my life changed… it was how much my friendships changed. How can millions of women be becoming mothers at exactly the same time… and yet so many describe feeling lonelier than they've ever felt?In the wise words of Kat in this episode "friendships are tough man"!!The friendship grief no one talks about.We explore the stories we tell ourselves When a friend doesn't check in…“They don't care.”“I've been forgotten.”“I'm not important anymore.”Is the village a myth?Motherhood can feel like entering a world where everyone has an opinion and the emotional impact of feeling watched.How fear of judgement keeps mothers performing instead of connecting.Motherhood changes what we need from each other. Before children, friendship might have been about:•fun•spontaneity•shared interests•adventureAfter children, it often becomes about:•flexibility•emotional safety•being remembered•practical support•someone who doesn't expect you to be “on”•someone who understands that cancelling isn't rejection It's not that mothers become “bad friends.” It's that the conditions for friendship change, and some relationships adapt while others don't.You can find more of us here: WHY DID NOBODY TELL ME THIS? | LIVE IN BONDIWe're taking the conversations from this series out of your headphones and into a room full of women.

C'est une petite musique que l'on entend depuis plusieurs années, celle des dangers de l'IA pour les sociétés. Mais elle s'est muée en cri d'alarme depuis quelques jours, après ce message pour le moins inquiétant, de Jacob Coxon, chercheur passé par Anthropic et OpenAI, qui annonçait sa démission, et dans le même temps que les entreprises du secteur jouaient « à la roulette russe avec nos vies ».  Le Point a décidé d'en faire son dossier de la semaine, et de revenir sur cette déflagration, notamment en se penchant sur les périls qui peuvent effectivement nous menacer avec l'IA. Parmi les hypothèses qu'il développe, celle tout d'abord qu' « une IA optimisera ses objectifs sans compassion ni morale humaine », selon un expert interrogé par le journal et elle pourrait même considérer que les limites à leurs progrès ce sont les humains eux-mêmes.   Le danger d'une attaque biologique « Durant l'été, des chercheurs (...) ont annoncé avoir créé 16 virus inoffensifs grâce à l'IA », raconte le Point, ce qui laisse imaginer ce qui pourrait se passer le jour où elles en créeraient des dangereux. Et le risque d'une guerre nucléaire est une question prise au sérieux : le pouvoir de décider sans IA est au cœur des réflexions des armées, mais selon un expert français cité par l'hebdomadaire, « en réalité il n'y a que peu de scénarios dans lesquels une IA autonome aurait intérêt à (...) déclencher une apocalypse nucléaire. Nous voilà rassurés », conclut le Point non sans une pointe de sarcasme.  Le Nouvel Obs s'intéresse au choc des générations à la gauche de la politique française  Près d'un jeune sur deux peut voter pour Jean-Luc Mélenchon à la présidentielle, un choix qui bouscule les parents, et provoque des débats musclés au sein des familles. Le journal s'est intéressé aux raisons qui poussent la jeunesse à choisir LFI plutôt que les partis de ses ainés. La première, c'est un sentiment d'urgence. « Les jeunes estiment qu'ils n'ont plus le temps de discuter indéfiniment, de négocier. Les congrès, les motions (...), les réunions interminables qui accouchent de compromis parfois illisibles constituent presque un repoussoir. Le PS en offre, aux yeux de ces jeunes, la caricature parfaite », résume un politiste dans les pages du Nouvel Obs.  « Les générations se distinguent aussi par les combats qui les ont fait rentrer dans l'espace public. Pour celle qui arrive aujourd'hui à l'âge adulte, les matrices de politisations ne sont plus celles de ses ainés. Elles s'appellent antiracisme, Gaza, MeToo, droits LGBT ou urgence climatique. Autant de combats qui ont en commun d'appeler moins le compromis que la rupture et sur lesquels LFI a su occuper l'espace », analyse l'hebdomadaire. Cette évolution permet aussi de comprendre pourquoi Raphaël Glucksmann par exemple, peine davantage auprès de la jeunesse. Pour le Nouvel Obs, il « paie son image de réformiste. Une vertu pour ses électeurs, un synonyme d'impuissance pour une partie de la jeunesse. Le raisonnement tient en une phrase : regardez où le compromis a conduit le monde. Donc, il faut rompre ». Et le journal de conclure par cet avertissement : « Avis aux familles de gauche : dans les prochains mois, les repas du dimanche risquent d'être animés ».                                                                                           La population française est-elle donc plus divisée que jamais ? C'est la question que Le 1 a posé à deux chercheurs dans un long entretien, et selon leur avis, pas tant que cela. Ce qui a changé, « ce n'est pas tant la polarisation de l'opinion que la façon dont elle s'exprime (...) Nos divisions se manifestent davantage qu'auparavant à travers le registre de l'émotion », explique une sociologue, qui rappelle qu' « il est bien normal qu'une société démocratique soit divisée. Si tout le monde semblait d'accord, ce serait le signe que nous vivons dans une société totalitaire ». Et quant à ce conflit entre générations, « il n'empêche pas les gens de souhaiter vivre ensemble ». La Croix Hebdo revient sur le combat contre la peine de mort d'une religieuse étasunienne Le portrait de sœur Helen Prejean, une religieuse étasunienne qui a passé sa vie à combattre la peine de mort, et qui continue de le faire à plus de 80 ans. Elle est convaincue que ce châtiment, toujours en vigueur aux États-Unis, est voué à disparaitre, « cela prendra encore des années mais nous y arriverons », affirme-t-elle dans les pages de La Croix.  Pendant des décennies, elle a accompagné des condamnés jusqu'à leur exécution, et a même interpellé l'ancien pape Jean-Paul II sur le sujet. Elle raconte les racines de son combat, et ce qui la pousse à continuer. « Pour moi, explique-t-elle, exécuter quelqu'un, cela revient à légaliser la haine. La peine de mort c'est un assassinat sponsorisé par l'État ». Elle évoque aussi les paramètres discriminatoires de la justice étasunienne, que ce soit en terme de couleur de peau ou de classe sociale : « vous ne trouverez jamais une personne riche dans le couloir de la mort. Nous avons d'ailleurs un slogan célèbre outre-Atlantique : "Pas de peine capitale pour ceux qui ont du capital" Tout est dit ! ». Et s'il devait y avoir une chose à retenir, c'est le conseil que nous donne sœur Helen Prejean, quand le journal lui demande comment elle arrive à garder l'espoir dans ce monde parfois bien sombre : « Faites quelque chose de modeste on s'en fiche, mais faites ! C'est comme cela que, peu à peu, on transforme le monde. (...) L'espoir, c'est une pratique : il faut s'y entrainer ».

Why Did Nobody Tell Me I'd Resent My Partner?Nobody is particularly surprised that having a baby is hard.But we're often completely unprepared for what becoming parents can do to our relationship.Suddenly the person you love is chewing too loudly. Sleeping too peacefully. Taking suspiciously long showers. And asking “What can I do to help?” somehow makes you want to launch something across the room.In Episode 3 of Why Did Nobody Tell Me This?, we're talking about one of the less Instagrammable parts of early parenthood: resenting your partner.Because resentment is rarely actually about the dishwasher. It can grow in the gap between what we're carrying and how supported we feel carrying it.We unpack the invisible and mental load of motherhood, becoming the default parent, mismatched responsibilities and what happens when one person's brain seemingly never gets to clock off.We talk about the transition from being a couple to becoming parents, and why sometimes it can feel like you've gone from being lovers and teammates to two exhausted colleagues running a small, chaotic logistics company together.Drawing on attachment and PACT principles, we explore the couple bubble, secure functioning and the idea of creating relationship agreements that become a north star when you inevitably find yourselves stuck in the same shitty pattern again. Because the goal isn't to never resent each other. It's to get curious about what the resentment is trying to tell you before it becomes a wall between you.Maybe underneath “Why do I have to do everything?” is: “I miss feeling like we're in this together.” Becoming parents often means learning how to find each other again in a new way. 

Sur le papier, ça semble si simple: le consentement, cʹest un oui. Dans les faits, cʹest autre chose. Un oui libre, informé, réversible et sans contrainte sʹavère beaucoup plus rare quʹon ne le croit. Depuis le mouvement #MeToo, le terme de "consentement" ressurgit régulièrement sur le devant de la scène médiatique et politique. Mais le consentement ne concerne de loin pas que les relations amoureuses et sexuelles. Dans les rapports de pouvoir les plus ordinaires, la question revient sans cesse: dans quelles conditions choisit-on vraiment? Comment mieux éduquer au consentement? Et que révèle le consentement de notre rapport à la liberté?

The New Yorker staff writer Jennifer Wilson joins Tyler Foggatt to discuss how the right's embrace of lingerie and cleavage signals the changing politics of sexuality. They talk about how the actress Sydney Sweeney's appearance and political affiliation became a cause célèbre for a segment of the conservative movement, and how it reflects a broader right-wing backlash against more inclusive notions of beauty and body positivity. They also examine the rise of the magazine Evie, which has billed itself as the “conservative Cosmo,” and explore how the left has been grappling with the politics of sexuality and sex appeal in the wake of the #MeToo movement. This week's reading: “Have Conservatives Taken Sexy Back?,” by Jennifer Wilson “The Warning Benjamin Netanyahu Ignored,” by Ruth Margalit “Remembrance of September 11th,” by Adam Gopnik “The America That 9/11 Made,” by Jill Lepore The Political Scene draws on the reporting and analysis found in The New Yorker for lively conversations about the big questions in American politics.

Back in episode 99 with Sarah Waddington, we dive into the story of a well-intentioned tweet about a Biff and Chip book image, posted during the height of the Me-Too era. What was meant to be a harmless comment, shared in the midst of the chaos of parenting, quickly spiraled into misreporting by UK tabloids, global backlash, online abuse, and even death threats. As her career and personal life were thrust into the public eye, the turning point came when credible voices stepped in to offer support.Through it all, the lesson emerged: consistency, values, and resilience matter far more than any momentary outrage. We explore how professionals who have experienced public shame are uniquely positioned to guide others through similar challenges, reminding us that clarity of purpose and standing by your principles can help weather the storm.Tune in for an insightful conversation about the power of maintaining your values in a world quick to judge, and the strength that comes from embracing the lessons learned in adversity.Click here to listen to the full episode 99.Send us Fan MailStruggling to prove marketing's worth to your board?

If you had told us to worry about the decline of people having sex fifteen years ago, we would've thought you were crazy. But the latest sociology reports have confirmed these dramatic declines in sexual activity. Sociology Professor, Brad Wilcox, joins Jason and Peter to break down the data and explain how we found ourselves in a sex recession on this episode of the Really? no Really? Podcast. Brad explains there's a number of factors that can explain what's contributing to the decline in adult relationship and human intimacy. The digital revolution, antidepressants and other medications, MeToo, isolation from the pandemic and the economics making it difficult for younger people to move out of their parents house and to afford their own homes, Brad breaks all of this down to prove how it's the perfect storm of causes for a sex recession. The United Nations is now forecasting we're going see a global population decline this century. We'll also cover how what type of impact this has on the world population.

Ep.137 Avec Kenza Tahri, autrice de "Peut-on tout déconstruire ? Vivre ensemble après Me Too (éditions de l'Aube) et Vincent Cocquebert, auteur de "La guerre de Sexcession" (éditions Arkhê).On prend un peu de hauteur, de recul, pour réaliser les bouleversements apparus ces dernières années, dans les relations entre femmes et hommes, ici dans le cadre hétéro, mais ça peut s'appliquer aussi dans un cadre queer / LGBTQIA+, le capitalisme et le patriarcat, les rapports de force, sont partout. A l'image de la fameuse tirade de Romain Duris, dans "les Poupées russes", de Cédric Klapisch "C'est quoi ce bordel avec l'amour ?"Avant de parler d'amour, il faudrait déjà savoir comment se rencontrer, se parler vraiment, avec nos vulnérabilités, nos valeurs, nos limites. Restez bien jusqu'au bout de l'épisode, vous saurez comment Kenza a rencontré son compagnon, alors qu'elle était maman célibataire, et comment Vincent a rencontré sa compagne, devenu la maman de leur enfant.

When the MeToo movement ignited in 2017, many believed it would be a turning point for women after which positive change would become inevitable. And for a brief time, it felt like the world was finally listening to women's voices. But in 2026, that promise feels fragile. The rise of the manosphere, escalating violence against women and girls, and the weaponisation of social media have made speaking out more dangerous, more exhausting and more necessary than ever. Far from moving forward, in many ways it can feel like society's attitudes towards women are going backwards. I|n June 2026 Intelligence Squared brought together a panel of voices to discuss the new threats facing women in modern culture. Jess Phillips, Minister for Safeguarding and Violence Against Women and Girls, writer and social historian Juliet Nicolson, and BAFTA award-winning actor Joanna Scanlan joined host BBC News editor Katie Razzall to ask: what does it really mean for women to be heard in 2026? --- If you'd like to become a Member and get access to all our full ad free conversations, plus all of our Members-only content, just visit intelligencesquared.com/membership to find out more.

In the good old days, before the Great Feminization, social media tribalism, and the instant fame of TikTok, most people felt disgust and horror at the thought of a mother killing her kids, let alone methodically leading each one down in the basement, then strangling them with an exercise band. This is the stuff of nightmares. Imagine your mother, the person you trust most in the world, telling you to “go to God, baby” as you felt your throat close and your life wither away. We've seen their faces, and we know their names. Everyone should be horrified, and yet, three years after the murders, Lindsay Clancy is not seen as a monster by hundreds of thousands of women all over the world but rather as their hero and a martyr for the agony and pain of motherhood.We are Lindsay! We stand with you, Lindsay!A triple homicide suspect whose fate was upended by one juror who withstood the pressure of 11 others to insist she was guilty beyond a reasonable doubt has become, for women, another Me Too moment. Me too, Lindsay. Me Too.Why are so many women losing their minds over this case, insisting Lindsay isn't guilty because either she was afflicted with postpartum psychosis and had no control over these acts or Patrick did it because Patrick “said it” and he wanted out of the marriage to go have an affair with the woman he's now married to.I wish it wasn't mostly women who are vulnerable to this level of group psychosis. But it is. Women are communal. They tend to form groups or tribes, out of necessity and human evolution. Every time I scroll TikTok, I see them. There they are, staring back at me, those crazy, crazy women, performing for total strangers, united only by one singular idea: Lindsay Clancy is not guilty.Welcome to Rock BottomLindsay Clancy has been cast as a typical heroine in a Lifetime movie, or the protagonist in one of the psychological thrillers so popular on Audible. I know this world all too well. I watch these movies as a guilty pleasure, and I consume so many of these books that I forget which ones I've already read.It looks something like this:This might explain why the less camera-ready child killers like Andrea Yates or Susan Smith never became a worldwide sensation. The plots play out almost the exact same way. The ambitious, successful, beautiful woman has a seemingly ordinary life until it is disrupted by a dark force. Almost always, this is an abusive, manipulative, lying, cheating man. But not always. Sometimes it's a woman. Whatever it is, the protag is never to be rescued. She must always rescue herself. Men who are “good” are allowed to admire them from afar and serve them but never save them.Lindsay Clancy has fit neatly into this role, especially if you are one of the truly insane women who believe she didn't do it, and there are a lot of those. How perfect for a Lifetime movie or a psychological thriller if we found out in the last act that Patrick really did do it and Lindsay emerges as the true victim.Their theory is that Lindsay only thinks she killed the kids when, in reality, Patrick did it. It's just that Lindsay did do it. She admitted it. She told the Chaplain first. Then, she told her husband and a psychologist that a voice told her to do it. The voice never appeared before or since because the voice was actually the mother who wanted to kill her kids.If Patrick Clancy is guilty of anything, it's being too kind and trusting of his wife. Their text message exchange the day of the murders:And a recent appearance at his church. Patrick Clancy and their entire family have forgiven Lindsay and believe this was the result of postpartum psychosis, which is why Patrick and Lindsay are both suing the healthcare providers who treated her. And it also explains why they stonewalled, testified for the defense, and refused to give any insight into what else might have driven Lindsay to murder that day.These are not the cries of someone who lost her children but the cries of a woman who remembers that moment she caused them so much fear, so much pain, and their deaths. If a voice ordered her to do it, why didn't she just say no? Why didn't she scream for her babies when she snapped out of it? Believe WomenI always thought it would be funny to put out a bumper sticker amid the Me Too movement that said: “Believe Children, Salem, 1692.” I'm not sure anyone would have gotten the joke. There aren't many people out there like me who have read every book, listened to every podcast, and know everything there is to know about the Salem Witch Trials.One thing I know for sure, however, is that it wasn't about “burning witches” nor was it about the patriarchy punishing women. These are lies that have never been corrected. The truth is that it was adolescent girls, not men, who had the power to decide who could live and who would die. So many people were convicted and hanged in Salem because of “spectral evidence,” what you could not see but could only imagine. There is a reason so much power was handed to those adolescent girls. Spectral evidence is why it's so hard for so many to see the Lindsay Clancy case clearly. It was postpartum psychosis! It was bad therapy! It was the drugs! It couldn't have been Lindsay. How else to explain how a seemingly normal “perfect” mother, high-achieving student, biology major, competitive cheerleader, could have killed her kids and then tried to kill herself? And for those girls in Salem, no one would have ever believed they could lie like that for so long. What Cotton Mather would call the Wonders of the Invisible World is the stormy darkness of the female mind. We can see from the Clancy case that so many are unwilling to see it for what it is: a mother who wanted to murder her children and took meds to stop those thoughts from coming, but they came anyway. All she wanted was for the problem to go away.But it's that mysterious world men don't dare even try to understand and usually avoid the endless emotional needs of women, which is why women need other women and why so many are now wrapping their arms around Lindsay Clancy. Me too, Lindsay.But what about the kids? Why isn't there a bigger movement for them? Why is everything and everyone else blamed for their deaths except the woman who planned it? Thought it through. Knew exactly where the bands were and how to kill her children one by one. Spectral evidence is that no one dares question a woman who claims she was in postpartum psychosis and gets away with murder.Lizzie Borden got away with murder, it's been theorized, because she hid the murder weapon and the bloody clothes in her menstrual pail, and none of the male detectives or any of the lawyers wanted to get anywhere near that subject. How does any society survive when this kind of murder is not only glossed over but excused because it's the woman who matters, not the kids? Why not the kids?And why are things so much different now from when the case first broke in 2023? It's easy if you know your Salem history. If Donald Trump was an existential threat to our utopia like the Devil was to Salem, then his second win in 2024 kicked into motion a Me Too on steroids. Now, it isn't just about who assaulted, harassed, or raped women. It's about all men.Lindsay Clancy became their avatar because she tried to do everything right. She was the best woman, wife, and mother she could be, and it still wasn't enough. Not even her Beach Body, Attachment Parenting, water parks, or birthday parties were enough. The same woman who left the hospital before she was ready so as not to miss her daughter's birthday is the same woman who, a short time later, killed her daughter. That mirrors the psychology of what happened to so many women who thought they had enough power to win the presidency with Hillary and then with Kamala. Their collective rage projected onto Lindsay Clancy has exploded in a way it probably never would have otherwise.Trump's second win, along with a hungry social media churn that wants more stories that will ignite our culture wars, turned a grotesque triple murder into a spectacle of narcissism and look-at-me trauma porn.“Me Too Lindsay”I spent so much of my adult life serving myself, chasing my own happiness because that was the blank check written for me as the first generation to come of age after Rose v. Wade and the Feminist movement. I couldn't just have kids and get married. My life had to amount to more than that.Women became successful homeowners and business owners, and were elevated to positions of power thanks to a concerted effort to reorder our society and achieve gender parity across all industries and spheres of power. But chasing our happiness would eventually lead us back to where it started. How could we have everything and still not be enough? The world was changing. Now, it wouldn't just be white men in charge. We would teach the young about the oppressors and the oppressed, and they would grow up to seek social justice, to fight against the colonizing white supremacist empire America had become. We just had no idea what we were building, what kind of madness we would unleash, and how it would all go so wrong for us that we'd end up abandoning women athletes, vulnerable women in prisons - we'd even accept that a transgender woman winning at Chess or Jeopardy was a win for women. We did it! Except that we didn't. Little by little, the rights of the mostly white feminist women who dominated the Left were eroded. They just weren't oppressed enough. It was “white feminism” - it was “TERFS.” Women were expected to take two steps back, to de-center themselves if they weren't “of color” or “trans.” Abortion was all they had left. This baby is not yet human.And should we be that surprised that we've arrived here? If a baby is already disposable and if abortions have become almost an act of empowerment, why wouldn't the killing of children be the next thing women force themselves not to care about? Mass hysteria gripped Salem Village for one long dark winter. But how long will ours last? How far will all of this go? If rock bottom isn't turning a mother who murdered her children into an internet sensation, I don't know what is.I am suddenly afraid for babies and children in this country and the mothers who see them as their oppressors. I am afraid of what those mothers might do, and I am even more afraid of a society of women that doesn't even seem to care. This is a public episode.

We knew motherhood would change our lives.We knew there would be less sleep, more responsibility and a tiny human who suddenly needed us for… well, everything.But nobody really prepared us for how much we would change too.In episode two of Why Did Nobody Tell Me This?, we're talking about what actually happens to us when we become mothers. To our brains, our bodies, our nervous systems, our identities, our values and the way we experience ourselves.We unpack the incredible changes happening in the maternal brain and why perhaps what we jokingly call “baby brain” is actually something far more sophisticated: a brain reorganising itself around the enormous task of keeping another human alive.Which might explain why you suddenly find yourself lying awake wondering…Is the baby breathing?What was that noise?Is the room too hot?Could they choke on that?We talk about hypervigilance, intrusive thoughts and that feeling of never really being able to switch off and explore how something designed to be incredibly adaptive can also become completely exhausting when our nervous system never gets the message that it's safe enough to stand down.But the changes aren't only neurological.We talk about birth, hormones, shifting values, the expectations we carry about the kind of mother we thought we'd be, and the strange experience of looking in the mirror and sometimes not quite recognising the woman looking back.Because motherhood doesn't just change what you do. It can change what matters to you. What scares you. What you need. How you see the world. And how you see yourself.And maybe one of the hardest parts is that all of this can be happening internally while, from the outside, you look like you're doing just fine.This episode is about putting language around that transformation.WHY DID NOBODY TELL ME THIS? | LIVE IN BONDIWe're taking the conversations from this series out of your headphones and into a room full of women.

Jennifer Robinson has spent her career working at the intersection of law, power and social change.An Australian barrister based in the UK, Jennifer is a leading media and human rights lawyer. She represented Amber Heard in Johnny Depp's UK defamation case against The Sun, acted for Julian Assange for 14 years, and has become a prominent advocate for women confronting violence, abuse and legal systems that too often silence them. She is the co-author of How Many More Women? and features in the documentary Silenced. In November 2026, she will receive the Sydney Peace Prize in recognition of her work.In this ChangeMaker Chat, Jennifer talks about the experiences that drew her to the law and shaped her approach to movement lawyering: working in the law not simply to win individual cases, but as part of a broader effort to change systems and shift power. She explores what #MeToo revealed about the failures of legal systems, including the ways defamation and other laws can be used by powerful people to silence women and journalists.This is a conversation about what it takes to make a difference when the systems you are trying to change are powerful, entrenched and often stacked against you. Jennifer reflects on the role of law, but also on its limits — and on why lasting change depends on people organising, building movements and working together to shift what is possible.You can find out more about the Sydney Peace Prize and how to get tickets to be part of the ceremony with Jennifer in November:https://sydneypeacefoundation.org.au/sydney-peace-prize-gala-dinner-2/For more information about Silenced and where you can go and see the documentary see:https://www.silenced-film.com/where-to-watchYou can find out about How many more women - now in its full uncensored version:https://www.allenandunwin.com/browse/book/Jennifer-Robinson-and-Keio-Yoshida-How-Many-More-Women-9781761471797Several people mentioned in this episode have previously been on ChangeMakers, and you can listen to their episodes here:Chanel ContosGrace TamePhoto credit: Mark Rogers========For more on ChangeMakers check us out:Via our Website - https://changemakerspodcast.org (where you can also sign up to our email list!)Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/ChangeMakersPodcast/Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/changemakerspodcast/Threads: https://www.threads.com/@changemakerspodcastBlue Sky: https://bsky.app/profile/changemakerspod.bsky.socialFor more on the books and Amanda's writing, have a look at:Her latest book Conscious Tribes: thinking differently about making a difference, and her book with Kurt Iveson - People Power in Cities - here and via Oxford Uni Press.Amanda's website is here https://amandatattersall.com/ - on Medium and Substack And - her much earlier book about coalition building - Power in Coalition and via Cornell Uni PressAmanda is on Socials here:On LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/amandatattersall/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/amanda.tattersallBlueSky: https://bsky.app/profile/amandatattersall.bsky.socialThreads: https://www.threads.com/@amandatattersallTikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@amanda.tattersall Hosted on Acast.

Is humanity really standing at a fork in the road between two entirely different worlds, and is that choice being made right now, in your lifetime, not someday off in the distant future? What if the Earth herself is having her own awakening moment, right alongside yours? Michael welcomes back Ann Tucker, trance channel for Isla, the Mother of Creation, the Angelic Consciousness, and Yeshua, for a conversation built around her brand-new book, The Map to New Earth. Ann breaks down the seven-stage map of consciousness Isla has been teaching her, why humanity landing here right now at stage five was essentially "winning the lottery," and why the growing chaos in the world may actually be proof that we're getting closer to a genuine shift, not further away. The episode closes with a live trance channeling of Isla herself, answering questions about hope, belonging, and what's coming in the months ahead. This isn't about bracing for collapse. This is about understanding that separation was always a necessary stage on the road to unity, and that you get to help weave the new reality into being simply by living from stillness instead of struggle. Key Topics: The seven-stage map of consciousness explained: why humanity incarnating at stage five right now made this lifetime the equivalent of winning a cosmic lottery. The starling metaphor: why a flock moving in perfect unity depends on each bird first perfecting its own separate space, and what that reveals about why humanity had to go through division before it could reach real unity. Why the chaos, scandals, and long-buried issues surfacing right now (Epstein, Me Too, and beyond) aren't signs of collapse; they're humanity sorting itself into a clearer identity on the way to a higher one. The "house versus garden" metaphor: why current reality is like experiencing the world through a window, filtered through memory and mind, while the shift into New Earth means stepping fully outside to feel, smell, and live directly through the heart. Ann's own increasing telepathic experiences, including singing ferns and audible "heart speech" from others, as personal evidence that the shift is already accelerating. Why the Earth's turbulence (floods, quakes, glacier melts) may be less like a disaster and more like a toddler's tantrum, and why becoming the calm, compassionate witness, rather than trying to suppress it, is the more powerful response. The difference between creating from the "known" (mind, memory, past experience) versus creating from the "now" (heart, stillness, presence), and why karmic loops exist because we keep creating from old information. Why healing means fully accepting even the hardest, most imperfect parts of your story, and how that acceptance collapses scattered energy into the present moment, opening you to a whole new state of connected consciousness. A live trance channeling of Isla, addressing fear of being "left behind," what's coming in the months ahead as internal shifts start externalizing into the world, and why hope itself is described as "the breath of the angels." Isla's central message: everything you're looking for outside yourself - love, kindness, support - was always meant to be found within, and coming to peace with your full self is what New Earth is actually built from. You don't have to wait for New Earth to arrive somewhere off in the distance. Every time you meet yourself in stillness, in full self-acceptance, in a moment of true presence, you lay down another thread in the tapestry already being woven right now. Hope isn't something you have to search for; it's the fuel already carrying you forward, whether you notice it or not. Come home to yourself, and you become one of the very hands building the new world into being. Get the Free Angel Number Decoder: http://www.AngelDecoder.com  Join the Inspire Nation Soul Family!

There is a certain kind of caricature of women that pops up in cultural commentary right now. Modern women, we are told, are inundated with male attention at all times, and all of it is deeply unwelcome. According to this view, says Phoebe Maltz Bovy, “straight women merely put up with men's advances because we don't want them to murder us, or because we rely on them for a roof over our heads, or maybe because they seem nice and this is our way of saying thank you.” In a new book 'The Last Straight Woman', Phoebe asks us to forget this caricature of 21st century womanhood, and to take a moment to think of the frumpy, horny women who are often forgotten in this discourse. The women who sincerely and enthusiastically desire men, and find that they get less male attention than they would like. Today we discussed whether #MeToo was only concerned with "hot girls", why so many women are identifying as something other than heterosexual, the politics of female agency, and much more.MMM is sponsored by 321 - a new online introduction to Christianity, presented by former MMM guest Glen Scrivener.

Historian Micki McElya's book, ‘Liberation Summer,' revisits September 1968, when three groups of women converged on the Atlantic City boardwalk: feminists protesting the Miss America Pageant, contestants in the first-ever Miss Black America Pageant, and women defending Miss America herself. McElya argues the collision that day created a politics of beauty that runs through the rise of the religious right, the #MeToo era, all the way to today. She spoke with Tonya Mosley. Also, TV critic David Bianculli reviews HBO's ‘Big Bang' spin-off,  ‘Stuart Fails to Save the Universe.' Subscribe to our free weekly newsletter Follow us on Instagram Subscribe to our YouTube channel Check out the Fresh Air ArchivesSupport public media with NPR+ and enjoy perks for over 25 podcasts like this one.
