Podcasts about patriarchal

For generations, women have been systematically taught to forget their inner intelligence. Patriarchal systems have consistently reinforced the notion that the male perspective is inherently correct. This disconnection from our own wisdom has profound consequences: we mistake silence for righteousness, shrink ourselves and call it humility, endure emotional pain and label it patience. When opportunities pass us by because of these learned limitations, it appears to validate the oppressor's claim that women are somehow less capable.The painful truth is that patriarchy thrives on hierarchy. It's built on the belief that someone must occupy the top position while another remains beneath—a dynamic that contradicts the Islamic vision of marriage as a mutual agreement and source of peace. When we're told repeatedly that our worth is connected to having successful relationships or bearing children, we begin to believe our value exists only in relation to others. But your worth remains 100% whole whether you're married, single, divorced, or childless. You are worthy because Allah created you worthy—no hierarchy can add to that, no relationship can validate it, no absence of a partner can diminish it.Healing begins with awareness and giving your experiences language. It requires recognizing this isn't about your personality flaws, but about socialized patterns. My work isn't about convincing anyone of their worth, but helping them remember what they've always been. Whether through coaching, reading, journaling, or whatever tools speak to you, don't wait for someone else's growth before reclaiming your power.Want to get coached by me?

He was born to devout and noble parents in Phrygia. Though his father was a prominent officer, he entered monastic life when young, and became abbot of a monastery in Amasea at the age of thirty. In 553 he was sent to the Fifth Ecumenical Council as the representative of the Metropolitan of Amasea. At the Council, he was one of those who argued, successfully, that heretics could be anathematized after their deaths. The most prominent case in point was Origen, the brilliant Christian philosopher who had written that all will eventually be saved. Eutychius' position thus earned him the enmity of the Origenists, who still made up an influential group in the Church. Saint Eutychius became a trusted confidante of the Emperor Justinian, and when Menas, Patriarch of Constantinople, reposed, Eutychius was chosen to replace him. Eutychius ruled in peace for twelve years, but was then cast into controversy when he boldly opposed one of the most hard-to-pronounce heresies in the history of the Church: Aphthartodocetism, the belief that Christ, before his resurrection, possessed an incorruptible body, not subject to hunger, thirst or pain (though the scriptures plainly speak of Christ being weary, hungry, thirsty, weeping). The Emperor Justinian for a time fell into this variant of the Monophysite heresy, and exiled Eutychius to his monastery for twelve years. During these years Eutychius showed himself to be a wonder-worker, healing many of their diseases through his prayers. Justinian repented shortly before his death, and his successor, Justin II, called Eutychius back to the Patriarchal throne, where he served the Church in peace until his repose at the age of seventy.

In a major and unprecedented shakeup to the U.S. military's leadership, U.S. President Donald Trump removed Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff Gen. Charles Brown in late February, while announcing his intention to replace Adm. Lisa Franchetti, the head of the U.S. Navy. The personnel changes have been framed as part of an effort to eradicate "woke ideology" from the U.S. military. It is not a coincidence, then, that Brown is Black and Franchetti is the first woman ever to command a U.S. military service branch. But the Trump administration's attack on efforts to address historical injustices for minorities and women - known as Diversity, Equity and Inclusion, or DEI, initiatives - goes beyond purging people of color and high-ranking women officers from the chain of command. As part of this agenda, Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth has also proposed a radical departure from the U.S. military's approach over the past decade. Though a slow-moving institution that is far from progressive, the Defense Department has undertaken a series of reforms to be more representative of the country it serves. That has included things like adopting a plan to implement the Women, Peace and Security Agenda, updating its harassment policies and protecting its employees from discrimination. Since taking over as defense secretary in late January, Hegseth has articulated his commitment to "restoring the warrior ethos, rebuilding our military, and reestablishing deterrence." Along those lines, he announced the creation of a Restoring America's Fighting Force Task Force charged with "overseeing the Department's efforts to abolish DEI offices and any vestiges of such offices that subvert meritocracy, perpetuate unconstitutional discrimination, and promote radical ideologies related to systemic racism and gender fluidity." This task force and other envisaged reforms are all aimed at eradicating "wokeness" from the U.S. military and Defense Department. This agenda reflects Hegseth's retrograde and patriarchal vision of the U.S. military. But his justifications for all of these measures are often invented or based on false premises. These misrepresentations are aimed at portraying the U.S. military as hamstrung by politically correct overreach. In both his public comments and his highly critical book about the U.S. military, Hegseth has castigated "woke" generals and policies that, he argues, undermine the military's effectiveness. For example, during his Senate confirmation hearings in January, Hegseth cited personal interviews conducted while writing his book to assert that commanders are expected to "meet quotas" in order to increase the number of women in the ranks. That practice, he added, was one of many "direct, indirect, overt and subtle" ways that the U.S. military has changed its standards to accommodate women recruits. Hegseth had previously asserted that women should not be present in ground combat operations, stating in November, "It hasn't made us more effective. Hasn't made us more lethal. Has made fighting more complicated." Hegseth's statements make it seem as if women have been coddled by the military in order to goose their numbers, to the detriment of readiness. Hegseth's remarks play well to Trump's base, but they aren't just for public consumption. They have real implications for the well-being of U.S. servicewomen, as well as for women in countries where the U.S. military is active. On both counts, however, he is demonstrably wrong. As Sen. Kirsten Gillibrand pointed out during his confirmation hearing, there are no quotas for women in the infantry. That is a politically expedient lie for Hegseth and his allies. With regard to standards, for instance, retired Army Lt. Col. Ellen Haring told NPR, "Not only have standards not been lowered, but when they first decided that … they were going to open combat jobs to women, the services were given three years to actually set standards because up until that point in time, standards had...

Patriarchy gets tossed around a lot. The system was made by men for men who wanted to hold onto their possessions. It has been this way for thousands of years.  We've been conditioned to believe success means fitting into a structure that wasn't made for women.  If it actually worked, why are so many people burned out, stressed, and still fighting for a seat at the table? In this episode of Earned Wisdom, Tracy Crossley breaks down how the patriarchal system keeps women stuck and how to change it. It's not about fighting harder—it's about seeing the game for what it is and choosing a different way. You don't need permission to redefine success, leadership, or power. You just need to stop believing in a system that will never work for you. What You'll Learn: Does anyone really benefit from the system? Patriarchal structures fuel burnout, competition, and emotional suppression Women are the way forward applying new meaning to success and leadership  Your power to create a movement for yourself and generations to come. "The system doesn't hold you back—believing in it does." ~ Tracy Crossley

Subscriber-only episodeSend us a Positive Review!In this enlightening episode, Valerie and Nathan tackle another tough but important topic: the insidious issue of the male superiority complex fostered by systemic patriarchy. They discuss how patriarchal structures teach boys and men, both subtly and explicitly, that they are superior to women, impacting the emotional and psychological development of all genders. Nathan shares personal reflections on how he now sees that what he was taught and how he was treated as a boy and man in a patriarchal world and church deeply affected his own behavior and relationships. He invites all men to confront and unlearn these biases so that men both in and around the LDS church can embody their God-given potential, which frankly cannot be realized when their characters are crippled by patriarchal ideas.  **More sensitive or more psychologically advanced themes are saved for paid Friday episodes to protect the content creators from being mischaracterized by less familiar consumers.**LEARN HOW TO SUBSCRIBE TO FRIDAY EPISODES(Watch a 2-minute how-to video)THEN subscribe to Fridays here.

Cultural beliefs like “more is better” and “perfection is necessary” often go unquestioned, yet they can wreak havoc on our lives, businesses, and sense of well-being. These deeply ingrained ideas—rooted in patriarchy and advanced capitalism—impact our nervous systems, our ability to create sustainable projects, and our sense of satisfaction.  But here's the truth: we don't have to play by these rules. We get to define our own standards of success, enoughness, and satisfaction…and it is our job to help our clients with this as well. In this quick but vitally important episode, we look at the importance of identifying and rewiring these limiting beliefs so you can make aligned decisions, find more peace and self value, and build a life and business on your terms. What You'll Discover in This Episode:

Dr. Randy White of Taos, NM, explores the Patriarchal Dispensation, a period where God interacted with humanity through patriarchs and unwritten principles, highlighting faith, failure, and divine patience.

You may not realize you were born into a system. One that doesn't look at you as an individual. Taught from a young age values that may not work for you. Join me as we talk about the pressures of a mother in a patriarchal society, how does she lead or is she only a follower? Many get a mixed message leaving them overwhelmed and disconnected. The expectations placed on women erode personal identity, create loneliness, and a cycle of helplessness (even if you cannot see it)—women are leaders, it's time to reclaim your power, set boundaries, and redefine what it means to thrive in motherhood and beyond. Key Insights from this Episode: The unrealistic expectations and approval-seeking behaviors mothers face. How patriarchal norms lead to a loss of identity and isolation. The invisible rules that dictate behavior and breaking free from them. Learn to trust yourself, build genuine connections, and prioritize self-care. Take the first step toward rewriting your story and embracing your authentic self. Listen now! "Where are you giving your power away? Stop doing it, but don't stop it and blame others—instead, recognize you haven't been taking care of yourself and start respecting your own space." ~ Tracy Crossley

Do you ever have something to share so urgently that you reschedule everything and record a podcast episode on New Years day!Well apparently I do and I make no apology because I think this was a much needed episode. Women running feminist led businesses are being struck by fear of the very things they are trying to dismantle. Patriarchal beauty standards, diet culture and everything we try and help women ignore for themselves, still hold us in a vice like grip and its impacting how we help women but instead of letting that stop you I want you to make peace with it. This episode is a lesson in imperfection, a lesson in being able to not be perfect but to keep going anyway. A reminder that diet culture likely still has a grip on you and that's ok. The narrow standards of beauty are still messing with your confidence and thats ok. By the end of this episode I hope you have the confidence of a mediocre white man and just keep doing your thing and showing up anyway.

Send us a Positive Review!Series Title: The Shocking Correlation Between Men Socialized in Patriarchies & Psychological/Spiritual Underdevelopment [Part V of VI] In this episode, Valerie and Nathan continue to discuss how being spiritually formed in a patriarchy negatively affects men. This episode highlights how being raised in this "power-over model" hampers male emotional maturity, leading to issues like lack of empathy, rigid black-and-white thinking, and minimal self-reflection, making it tough for men to admit mistakes or be accountable to those around them both personally and institutionally. Valerie and Nathan emphasize their desire to highlight this topic, hoping that more knowledge will bring a greater capacity for individual, family, and institutional growth and healing.Breaking Down Patriarchy Podcast- Amy McPhie Allebest- "How to be an Anti-PatriarchistDisentangling from Emotionally Immature People- Lindsey C.

A native of Thessalonica, he rose from secretary to Alexander, Patriarch of Constantinople (commemorated August 30), to deacon, then succeeded St Alexander as Patriarch around 337. For his virtue and his zeal for Orthodoxy he was hated by the Arians, who were still powerful in the Empire. The Arian Emperor Constantius, learning of Paul's election, exiled him and made the Arian Eusebius Patriarch in his place. St Paul went to Rome, where he joined St Athanasius the Great in exile. Furnished with letters from Pope Julius, he was able to ascend the Patriarchal throne once again upon the death of Eusebius. But once again the Arians were able to put one of their party on the Patriarchal throne: Macedonius, who even went beyond the Arian heresy and denied the divinity of the Holy Spirit. Once again the legitimate, Orthodox Patriarch found himself in exile in Rome. In succeeding years St Paul stood firm for Orthodoxy while complex political and military intrigues swirled around him, with the Orthodox Constans, Emperor of the West (and Constantius' brother) supporting him while Constantius continued to oppose him. For a time Constans was able to enforce Paul's place on the Patriarchal throne, but when he died, Constantius banished St Paul to Cucusus on the Black Sea. There, while he was celebrating the Divine Liturgy in the house where he was kept prisoner, the Arians strangled him with his own omophorion. His relics were brought back to Constantinople by the Emperor Theodosius the Great.

Six months ago, Vince Miller became a first-time grandfather. He joins today's episode to share personal insights around multigenerational thinking, assuming the role of patriarch, and the power of being physically, mentally, and emotionally available to your kids.    Key Takeaways   You can be given a title—like father or grandfather—without assuming the role.  Proverbs is predominantly about a father passing on wisdom to a son.  A 30-second conversation can change the trajectory of someone's life.  Fathers need to be present, available, and engaged.   Vince Miller   Vince Miller is a passionate speaker, prolific author, and dedicated mentor to men. As the founder of Resolute, he exists to disciple and develop men to lead. Vince has three grown children and one grandchild.    Key Quotes   16:15 - "I went from a dad who really didn't want to spend time with me to a dad who did want to spend time with me. And he happened to be a Christian and who imparted basic, basic things to me that I needed as a young man and basic lessons like how to treat women, how to eat a meal, how to be polite, how to confront difficulty. And the very, very important things like who is Jesus? What has He done for you? How to have a relationship with Him." 29:31 - "I've also learned a valuable lesson, just about presence. Just about being there when they need you, and that means not being somewhere else. It means not being somewhere else. It means you're physically not somewhere else and that your mind is not somewhere else. I think sometimes for dads, that's a hard mechanism to turn off in our minds because there's plenty of dads who are present but not available. But we need to be both present and available at the same time and engaged."   Links from Today's Conversation   Send a Voice Message to DadAwesome Manhood, Courage & Adventure (episode 031 w/ Vince Miller) Resolute  Essential Elements: Forging Godly Men by Vince Miller The Vince Miller Show   Connect with dadAWESOME   Make a Donation to dadAWESOME Join the dadAWESOME Prayer Team Receive weekly encouragement by texting "dad" to 651-370-8618

One of the most remarkable developments in Indian politics in recent years is the surge in female voter turnout. For the first several decades after Independence, women's participation on Election Day lagged men's by between 8 to 12 percentage points. In recent years, however, that gender gap has completely disappeared. In most state elections today, women turn out to vote with greater frequency than men.But this good news story obscures a puzzling fact: while Indian women vote at high rates, they are markedly less involved than men in politics between elections. A new book by the political scientist Soledad Artiz Prillaman gives us an explanation of why.Soledad is an Assistant Professor of Political Science at Stanford University and the author of an award-winning new book, The Patriarchal Political Order: The Making and Unraveling of the Gendered Participation Gap in India.She joins Milan on the show this week to talk about gender and politics and what can be done to ensure women have a seat at the table even when the electoral spotlight is off. The two debate the nature of coercive political power, the importance of social norms, and the ubiquity of patriarchy. Plus, the two discuss the backlash to women's empowerment.Episode notes:1.

You may know by now that I could preach all day about how women are programmed by the patriarchy to show up in this world in very specific ways that primarily (and almost exclusively) benefit white men. Please know when I say “patriarchy” I am referring to a system that is not only harmful to women but also undermines and completely stunts the emotional development of most men. This system benefits few, but the few who benefit have the most tremendous power - globally. Our patriarchal society has created numerous social constructs that lead us to unknowingly behave in ways that benefit some (mostly men) while holding others back (including but not limited to: women, people of color, members of the LGBTQIA+ community, people with neuro diversities, people with disabilities, and people with larger bodies). Over the years, I've talked about mom guilt as a social construct and imposter syndrome as a social construct. Both of these social constructs are part of a system that intentionally makes women and moms think and behave in specific ways that ultimately limit how they show up in the world. These limitations create more space for others (most commonly white men) to have more opportunities to find success, build wealth, and amass power.   In today's episode, I'm going to talk about perfectionism as a social construct that largely impacts women. We will dig into different forms of perfectionism, as well as how you can start to reject perfectionism to get out of your head and get on with your life. Once you see perfectionism for what it is, I hope you are able to reframe your mindset around it to release some of the internal expectations that have perhaps been holding you back for years - if not decades. Buckle up. This is a good one!   Links mentioned: NYU Article: Problematizing Perfectionism: A Closer Look at the Perfectionism Construct Harvard Business Review Article: How Perfectionists Can Get Out of Their Own Way Harvard Business Review Article: Stop Telling Women They Have Imposter Syndrome  Book: Inclusion on Purpose by Rushika Tulshyan We love the sponsors that make this show possible!

He was born in Thessalonika around 1300; his mother was a convert from Judaism. He entered monastic life, first at Mt Sinai, then at the Great Lavra on Mt Athos. The so-called "Hesychast controversy" was then raging, and St Philotheos became one of the firmest and most effective supporters of St Gregory Palamas (November 14) in his defense of Orthodoxy against western-inspired attacks on the doctrines of uncreated Grace and the possibility of true union with God. It was St Philotheos who drafted the Hagiorite Tome, the manifesto of the monks of Mt Athos setting forth how the Saints partake of the Divine and uncreated Light which the Apostles beheld at Christ's Transfiguration. In 1351, he took part in the "Hesychast Council" in Constantinople, and wrote its Acts. In 1354 he was made Patriarch of Constantinople; he stepped down after one year, but was recalled to the Patriarchal throne in 1364. He continued to be a zealous champion of undiluted Orthodoxy, writing treatises setting forth the theology of the Uncreated Energies of God and refuting the scholastic philosophy that was then infecting the Western church. Despite (or because of?) his uncompromising Orthodoxy, he always sought a true, rather than political, reconciliation with the West, and even worked to convene an Ecumenical Council to resolve the differences between the churches. This holy Patriarch was deposed in 1376 when the Emperor Andronicus IV came to the throne; he died in exile in 1379.   St Philotheos composed the Church's services to St Gregory Palamas. He is not listed in the Synaxaria, but is venerated as a Saint in the Greek church.

Join us for a compelling conversation with Professor Erin Kelley as we dissect the intricate ties between patriarchy and violence against women, inspired by her latest book, "Law, Literature, and Violence Against Women." You'll gain profound insights into how societal norms and gender biases are deeply embedded in various aspects of life, perpetuating gender-based violence. Professor Kelley's unique blend of real-life accounts and literary examples illuminates the systemic roots of sexual harassment, challenging us to rethink the structures that uphold male dominance.Ever wondered how perpetrators target their victims in hierarchical workplaces like law firms? This episode exposes the vulnerabilities—such as low self-esteem, youth, and cultural factors—that predators exploit to maintain control. We break down the grueling process victims face when seeking legal recourse, discussing why the fear of lawsuits often doesn't translate into meaningful reform. With an in-depth analysis of DARVO tactics and institutional betrayal, we uncover the obstacles that further complicate the pursuit of justice for those who have suffered abuse.Understanding the psychological impacts of harassment is crucial. We explore the often-misunderstood freeze response and how it influences reactions to violence, sometimes leading to victim-blaming. This episode is a call to action—join us in the fight for greater equity and support for those affected by domestic violence and workplace harassment.

Patriarchal values lose hold: Korean fathers want to change but lack role models 진행자: 최정윤, Chelsea Proctor 기사요약: 한국 남성들이 “아빠”보다 “아버지”라 호칭하는 걸 선호하는 이유는? 엄마와는 둘이 시간을 보내도 아들과 아빠와 단 둘의 시간을 불편해하는 이유를 살펴봅니다 [1] Oh Yoon-suk, a 43-year-old office worker in Busan, addresses his father -- but not his mom -- using honorifics. “I call my mother ‘eomma,' but with my father, it's always been ‘abeoji,'” he explained. “Eomma” is a less formal term for “mother,” while “abeoji” is a more respectful way of saying “father.” It's similar to saying “father” instead of “dad.” honorifics: 존댓말 address: 부르다, 말하다 [2] Oh's linguistic choice reflects the emotional distance he feels with each of his parents. “I can imagine going on a trip or to an exhibition with my mother, just the two of us. But I can't picture doing the same with my father. It would be too awkward,” he said. While Oh's use of honorifics might be particular to his family, his less close relationship with his father, compared to with his mother, is not uncommon among South Koreans of his generation. reflect: 나타내다, 반영하다 particular: 특정한 [2] Korean fathers have typically been defined by their financial role, leaving child-rearing largely to the child's mother. This division of labor fosters an authoritarian father figure who is rarely home and, when home, remains aloof in household matters. The mother meanwhile bonds closely with the children, developing stronger attachment bonds. rearing: 양육 aloof: 냉담한, 거리를 두는 [3] Contemporary Korean society, however, is rewriting the script on fatherhood. As the percentage of women working has climbed in recent years, men are also expected to share household duties and child care. The grip of patriarchal values has loosened. climb: 상승하다 grip: 지배 patriarchal: 가부장제의 기사 원문: https://www.koreaherald.com/view.php?ud=20240812050784

St Alexander took part in the First Ecumenical Council as delegate of Patriarch Metrophanes, who was too frail to attend; and succeeded Metrophanes on the Patriarchal throne. By his prayer to God that the Church might be spared the schemings of Arius, Arius was struck dead.   St John is, by one account, St John the Faster (Sept. 2), who reposed in 595; by another, St John Scholasticus (Feb. 21), who reposed in 577.   St Paul was Patriarch for five years, then renounced the Patriarchal throne to take the Great Schema.

Are you trying to embrace God's true character - and His love for you - but feel a sense of inequality every time you open your Bible? When you've been taught about Eve, the Proverbs 31 woman, or certain things the apostle Paul said, was the message related to women staying in their place? Making it seem like God isn't all that loving? Friend, trust me when I say that this is SO not true.

In this conversation we discuss the topic of spiritual gifts, specifically focusing on the gift of tongues. We explore the differences between the Mormon and Christian perspectives on spiritual gifts and how they are practiced. We also highlight the importance of aligning spiritual experiences with God's Word and the potential dangers of relying solely on feelings. Overall, we encourage listeners to seek a biblical understanding of spiritual gifts and to prioritize love and the edification of the body of Christ.Find the official LDS Article of Faith at their website here. LDS: “We believe in the gift of tongues, prophecy, revelation, visions, healing, interpretation of tongues, and so forth.”AC: We believe in one true universal church, comprised of all who genuinely acknowledge the message of the gospel of God's grace through Jesus Christ. This church, we believe, has many valid local expressions and denominations. God through the Holy Spirit equips every believer with spiritual gifts for the edification of the body of Christ. Mature believers recognize this and participate in God's work alongside other followers of Christ. (1 Cor. 12:12; Eph. 1:22-23; Eph. 2:19-22; Phil. 1:1; Acts 2:42; Acts 1:8; Matt. 28:19-20; 1 Cor. 11:23-26).Takeaways:Mormons view the gift of tongues as the ability to quickly learn a language for missionary work.Mormons believe in a wide range of spiritual gifts, but they are more focused on the authority of their leaders.There is a spectrum of beliefs among Christians regarding spiritual gifts, ranging from cessationism to pentecostal practices.Patriarchal blessings play a significant role in Mormonism, serving as personal scripture and recorded blessings that individuals are expected to live up to.A biblical understanding of spiritual gifts emphasizes the importance of love and the edification of the body of Christ.Relying solely on feelings can be misleading, and it is crucial to prioritize God's Word and the giver of the gifts over the gifts themselves.Check out this LDS.org link for more on the Mormon view.--The Unveiling Mormonism podcast pulls back the curtain on Mormon history, culture and doctrine.

Work-life balance is not a thing. Not only is it not a thing, but the idea of it is founded on a lie. It is an idea and philosophy that the Patriarchy feeds to women as something to be desired, something to be attained, something to aspire to.   As feminism has evolved over the last few decades, many of us have been told that, “This is your time! Finally, women can have it all.” Sounds great in theory. But we have been given no resources and no support. But without resources, support, and systemic restructuring (philosophical and logistical) there is no way for this to be lived. It's an idea and a lie that allows the Patriarchy to look like they care. Cute, huh? We have been conditioned that because we can have it all, we should go after it all. And then once we go after it all and fill every millimeter and pore of our metaphorical plates, we should also keep it all balanced in some picture-perfect mathematical ratio - as if our lives are as simple as some sort of formula or squeaky clean quadratic equation.   We are told if we have better balance, we wouldn't be so stressed out all the time.   We are told if we have better balance, we will be better moms and our kids will be more likely to thrive.   We are told we are lucky to live in an era where we can work full time (if not more) and also parent full time - cramming 48 hours of work into every 24-hour day.   Because we are told this lie is true and possible, we are left to feel inadequate, guilty, and resentful when we cannot figure out how to make it work.   When we are working, we feel guilty that we aren't parenting. When we are parenting, we feel guilty that we aren't working.   If you feel like you don't have a work-life balance, it's because there is no such thing. You are not the only one who feels inadequate in your constant journey toward this farce. Millions of us are standing beside you. And, we are tired too.   This Greatest Hits episode is an invitation to exhale, see a new truth, and give yourself permission to start living in a reality that allows you to release all feelings of failure and inadequacy because they were never yours to own.   We love the sponsors that make this show possible!

In this episode of the Matriarchy series, we explore how deeply ingrained patriarchal narratives can create a policing effect on the behavior of women.  Author, Elise Loehnen, discusses her book "On Our Best Behavior" which examines how concepts like the seven deadly sins have historically been used to restrict women's behavior and police their adherence to an idealized form of "goodness." Loehnen unpacks the insidious ways women are culturally conditioned from a young age to suppress normal human drives like anger, ambition, and sexuality. And how disrupting rigid gender stereotypes is important when raising the next generation in order to build a more compassionate world.  Jen and Elise discuss: How women are culturally conditioned and expected to embody "goodness" while men are oriented toward power  How concepts like the "seven deadly sins" have historically been used as a patriarchal "punch card" to police women's behavior Why raising boys to have an emotional inner life nurtures positive identity development The current era of politics that calls for women to challenge the patriarchal system while also having compassionate dialogue to build a new, care-centered world where everyone can flourish * * * Thought-Provoking Quotes: “Women are trained for goodness and men are trained for power.” - Elise Loehnen “The worst thing for a woman is reputational harm--just the assigning of her badness. Bad mother. Toxic coworker. Toxic boss. Unkind. She says the wrong thing. And it's sort of impossible to defend yourself against that. We have zero tolerance, and it's very scary.” - Elise Loehnen "We need a culture where the men are like, 'I would like to be more like women. I need to be caring. I want to be nurturing and creative. And yes, I can be strong and I can be masculine, but I also need this underdeveloped muscle.'" - Elise Loehnen Resources Mentioned in This Episode: On Our Best Behavior by Elise Loehnen - https://bit.ly/44tz41D Goop - https://goop.com For the Love of Being Seen and Heard ft.

Welcome to the For The Love of The Matriarchy series where we'll explore all the different aspects of women working to embrace agency and celebrating their worth. As we celebrate the power of women and their accomplishments, we'll also look at the challenges women have faced in a patriarchal society (and still face) and what that means for their bodies and autonomy.  Cait West is an author who grew up in an extreme patriarchal Christian community. She was taught from a young age that her sole purpose was to become a submissive wife and mother. This pervasive sense of having no agency or control over her own life, combined with the constant messaging that she was inherently sinful and unworthy, took a profound toll on Cait's mental health, causing severe anxiety and depression from a very young age. Jen and Cait delve into how families can fall into toxic belief systems, and what recovery can look like. Jen and Cait discuss: The impact of being raised in a fundamentalist, patriarchal environment that severely restricts a woman's autonomy, education, and life choices. The healing power of finding community, sharing one's story, and reclaiming agency after experiencing spiritual abuse and trauma. The difficult but important choice of breaking free from oppressive systems, even when it means severing ties with your own family * * * Thought-Provoking Quotes: "[My husband] has always been my steady companion because he experienced some of that verbal abuse from my dad, and he knew what it was like...When I would have anxiety attacks, he didn't understand what was going on either, but he would just sit with me until I could get through it and come back to regulate my nervous system. He just was there with me through it. And that meant more than having someone try to fix it or totally tell me what to do." - Cait West "I realized I had a story to tell. Going to writing conferences and learning from other writers like you who were talking about speaking up for injustice, I decided to tell part of my story online. I started doing that around 2018 and realized there's a lot more people who've been through this and they've just been silenced or afraid — people who if they say something, their family's going to cut them off. That's what happened to me in 2019. I had an interview and I started talking online about my experience and my dad decided not to talk to me anymore. I understand that fear but once I lost that relationship, I felt liberated to tell my story. Because somebody has to. Somebody has to say something." - Cait West "Cait's my real first name, and then West is my grandmother's — what we call the maiden name. It's always resonated with me, my mother's heritage, because they're Southerners, they grew up in poverty. The women in my family have always been the leaders and the strong people of faith. And so to me, it's kind of like calling back to that heritage and recognizing it and trying to hold on to some kind of legacy after losing so much of my life." - Cait West Resources Mentioned in This Episode: Christian Patriarchy Movement - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Biblical_patriarchy Tears of Eden (Nonprofit for survivors of spiritual abuse - https://www.tearsofeden.org/ Rift: A Memoir by Cait West - https://www.caitwest.com/book Guest's Links: Website - https://www.caitwest.com/ Twitter - https://bit.ly/3UytS9l Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/caitwestwrites/ Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/caitwestwrites/?hl=en TikTok - https://www.tiktok.com/@caitwestwrites Substack - https://caitwest.substack.com/ Connect with Jen!
