Podcasts about young women

Sally Mann is one of the most significant American photographers of the late 20th and 21st centuries. Over a career spanning more than four decades, Mann has explored childhood, family, memory, mortality, and the passage of time, often through experimental and historic photographic processes. From At Twelve: Portraits of Young Women (1988), a nuanced study of girls on the cusp of adolescence, to her landmark series, Immediate Family (1985–1994), occasionally staged photographs of her three children, taken with an 8×10 view camera. In more recent years, Mann turned her lens toward the land itself, using the American South as a site of both personal and collective memory. Mann is the subject of the documentary films Blood Ties: The Life and Work of Sally Mann (1994). Her memoirs include Hold Still, and now Art Work: On the Creative Life.On February 11, 2026, Sally Mann came to the Sydney Goldstein Theater in San Francisco for an onstage conversation with teacher, writer, and photographer Ted Orland. 

New figures show New Zealand women are significantly under-represented in property ownership. More than half (53%) of Gen Z men and two-thirds (66%) of Millennial men own the home they live in. That’s compared to the female figures of about a third and under half, respectively. Today on The Front Page, Cotality NZ’s chief property economist, Kelvin Davidson is with us to discuss what’s contributing to the discrepancy, and how we might be able to fix it. Follow The Front Page on iHeartRadio, Apple Podcasts, Spotify or wherever you get your podcasts.

Maddy is back to talk about the film Bodies, Bodies, Bodies from 2022, a cool, thriller-horror film that plays on the generational zeitgeist of Gen Z. We talk about how the film reflects cultural fears, cultural fetishes, and unspeakable taboos, and how it keeps us all engaged by appealing to our preexisting cultural stereotypes, our natural reaction to protect certain groups of people while fearing others, and a generational gap that has many Gen Zers stuck on their phones living a life that's fake, digital, and maybe where we are all headed in the future. Support the show

What role does chess play in our lives? That's a recurring question on Perpetual Chess, and one that author Katie Kormanik explores in her new, personal memoir, Adventures of a Chess Girl. A former top scholastic player, Katie looks back at the competitive years of her early 20s and reflects on how chess became a refuge during a stressful and uncertain time. The game allowed her to travel widely and immerse herself in an eclectic social circle of strong players from around the world. Although Katie ultimately stepped away from competition, she still loves chess, and now fondly revisits those formative memories. We also discuss her experience self-publishing the book, as well as our thoughts on the new Queen of Chess documentary on Netflix.  Thanks to our sponsor, Chessable.com.

It's Tuesday, February 17th, A.D. 2026. This is The Worldview in 5 Minutes heard on 140 radio stations and at www.TheWorldview.com.  I'm Adam McManus. (Adam@TheWorldview.com) By Kevin Swanson and Timothy Reed 90,000 Nigerians displaced due to Islamic violence More than 90,000 Catholic Nigerians have been displaced in the Southern Taraba State since September 2025, reports International Christian Concern. According to the Catholic Diocese of Wukari, over 100 people have been killed and thousands more wounded in that same time frame. U.S. funds United Nations, Dept of Ed, and Nat'l Institutes of Health The Trump administration is still funding the United Nations.  President Donald Trump approved another $3 billion dollars to the international organization in early February, according to Reuters.  The U.S. has averaged $2.5 billion dollars of funding each year for the United Nations, over the last twenty years.  America joined the United Nations back in 1945, and is its largest donor.  And, despite vowing to close down the U.S. Department of Education during his campaign, the president has signed a government funding bill that will jack up the Education Department budget 2025 levels by $217 million for a total of $79 billion. That's $12 billion more than the administration's original request. Plus, the National Institutes of Health gets another increase of $415 million over Fiscal Year 2025. In total, $48.7 billion of taxpayer money will keep this bureaucracy alive and flourishing. Republican states take action to cut property taxes Several Republican-majority states are working to reduce and eliminate property taxes for citizens. North Dakota, Florida, Georgia, Indiana, and Texas have made progress. Plus, Tennesseans will consider a ballot measure this November to eliminate the property tax. Several states are also working to trim or fully end state income taxes, with nine states having zero income tax in 2026.  One-third of young women call themselves homosexual or transgender The Gallup polling organization released new numbers on Americans identifying with a list of sexual perversions.   Now, 9% of U.S. adults call themselves sexually perverted, up from 7% in 2023, and 3.5% in 2012. The increase has occurred with the younger generation primarily. Now, almost a quarter of 20-somethings and roughly one-third of young women call themselves homosexual or transgender. Also, 10% of the 30 to 49-year-olds claim these perverse identities. Transgender murderers kill at 10 times rate of general population As The Worldview reported on February 12, the mass murderer held responsible for perpetrating Canada's worst school shooting in recent history was a man pretending to be a woman, reports LifeSiteNews.com. Jesse Van Rootselaar killed his mother and seven others, and wounded 27, before killing himself in the massacre in a remote town in British Columbia. Another man pretending to be a woman, Robert Westman, was the perpetrator at the Annunciation Catholic School shooting last August. At least five other mass-casualty shootings are attributed to men and women attempting to change their gender. That includes the Aberdeen, Maryland Rite Aid shooting, the STEM School killings in Denver, Colorado, the Club Q massacre in Colorado Springs, Colorado, and the Covenant School massacre in Nashville, Tennessee. Also, the Iowa Perry High School perpetrator appeared to be pushing the transgender agenda. A recent study from National Review found that transgender suspects participate in mass shootings at a rate of 10 times that of the rest of the population. Alabama's Governor signs Child Predator Death Penalty Act Alabama Republican Governor Kay Ivey signed the Child Predator Death Penalty Act into law late last week, reports WVTM13.  This law assigns the death penalty to crimes of first-degree rape, first-degree sodomy, and first-degree sexual assault of victims under age 12. Biblical law assigns a serious penalty to those who kidnap or seize people against their will. Exodus 21:16 says, “Now one who kidnaps someone, whether he sells him or he is found in his possession, shall certainly be put to death.” Kansas governor vetoes law to keep boys out of girls spaces Kansas Democratic Governor Laura Kelly  vetoed a bill passed by the Kansas legislature that would have kept biological males out of women's bathrooms.  The bill would have prosecuted any men, pretending to be women, who trespass in women's spaces, on repeated offenses. Hopefully, the state legislature will override the veto, given that the Republican Party holds a two-thirds majority in both houses.   So far, 20 states have passed laws that ban men from invading women's spaces. Proverbs 17:13 reminds us, “Whoever rewards evil for good, evil shall not depart from his house.” Puerto Rico affirms value of human life from conception Puerto Rico Governor Jenniffer González-Colón  signed a bill that affirms the humanity and dignity of an unborn child, from the moment of conception.   Governor González-Colón said the bill “classifies as first-degree murder the intentional and knowing killing of a pregnant woman, resulting in the death of the unborn child at any stage of gestation within the mother's womb.” This was passed mainly for purposes of homicide and criminal law. While this personhood law does not automatically ban abortion outright in Puerto Rico, pro-lifers are hopeful it will pave the way for future legal protections of unborn babies. 47% of Americans think visitors from other planets have visited Earth  (theme from the movie E.T.) Interest in extraterrestrials and UFOs is at an all-time high in the United States. A “Yougov” survey found 47% of Americans believe extraterrestrials have visited the Earth. Former President Barack Obama says ET's probably exist. But he clarified on Instagram that, “I saw no evidence during my presidency that extraterrestrials have made contact with us.” Pokemon card sells for $16 million And finally, a trading card has netted the highest private sale amount in history.  A Pokeman card took in over $16 million over the weekend. That beats the last world record sale of a 1952 Mickey Mantle baseball card, which sold for $12.6 million in 2022. There were only 41 of this particular Pokemon card produced in 1998. That compares to 75 billion Pokemon cards printed in 2025. Pokeman is a game wherein the players play-act the harnessing of the power wielded by demons or monsters.

Extra print stories United States military strikes ISIS in Syria The US military conducted strikes on more than 30 ISIS targets in Syria since the beginning of February.  According to US Central Command, or CENTCOM, the attacks "struck ISIS infrastructure and weapons storage targets with precision munitions delivered by fixed-wing, rotary-wing, and unmanned aircraft." CENTCOM Commander Brad Cooper said, “Striking these targets demonstrates our continued focus and resolve for preventing an ISIS resurgence in Syria. Operating in coordination with coalition and partner forces to ensure the enduring defeat of ISIS makes America, the region and the world safer."  More than 50 ISIS terrorists have reportedly been killed in the past couple of months by the United States military. Tensions remain high between the US and the Middle East, with all eyes on potential military action in Iran.  US House passes SAVE Act The U.S. House of Representatives passed the Safeguard American Voter Eligibility Act requiring those who vote in American elections to provide proof of citizenship. The bill passed 218-213, with every House Republican voting in favor of the measure. Texas Democrat Henry Cuellar also crossed the aisle to vote for the law. The law is touted by Republicans as a simple way to secure American elections and to eliminate cheating and foreign influence. Americans also overwhelmingly favor the requirement of a photo ID to cast a vote. However, the bill faces a hard road in the Senate, with Republicans holding only 53 seats, but needing 60 votes to pass the SAVE Act. Psalm 67:4 says, “O let the nations be glad and sing for joy: for thou shalt judge the people righteously, and govern the nations upon Earth.”

Sophia Lorey is joined in Episode 63 of This Is a Woman Podcast by Faith Ozenbaugh, National Director of Young Women for America, for a candid and thought-provoking conversation on feminism versus biblical femininity and why the distinction matters.Together, Sophia and Faith unpack how modern feminism has shifted across its waves, ultimately leaving many women confused, discouraged, and disconnected from their God-given design. Faith walks listeners through the origins of the feminist movement, explaining where early legal victories gave way to ideological extremes that now undermine women, family, and truth itself.The conversation then turns toward biblical femininity not as a rigid checklist or cultural trend, but as a heart posture rooted in surrender to Christ and grounded in Scripture. Drawing from women throughout the Bible, including Deborah, Sophia and Faith highlight how Scripture affirms women as strong, wise, courageous leaders who flourish when they live in alignment with God's design rather than cultural pressure.Listeners will also hear a clear breakdown of common misconceptions surrounding submission, marriage, and womanhood, as well as a thoughtful critique of both radical feminism and the modern “tradwife” movement. Faith explains why neither extreme reflects the full biblical picture and why femininity is not limited to marriage or motherhood, but expressed faithfully in every season of a woman's life.The episode closes with a powerful reminder: femininity is not a burden, weakness, or form of oppression. It is a gift. Sophia and Faith encourage young women to reject the lies of feminism that demean womanhood, embrace biblical truth with discernment, and find joy, freedom, and purpose in the way God uniquely created them.Links mentioned:Young Women for America: https://concernedwomen.org/ywa/Concerned Women for America: https://concernedwomen.org/YWA on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/yw4a/

In this episode of Echoes Through Eternity, Dr. Jeffrey D. Skinner explores a troubling but often overlooked trend: while Gen Z men are returning to church, young women are quietly leaving.This is not loud rebellion. It is not rejection of Jesus. It is a slow erosion of belonging.Joined by Rev. Dr. Kim McLean, mentored by Dolly Parton, Loretta Lynn and others—pastor, songwriter, church planter, and longtime mentor of others—this conversation examines how shame-based formation, unequal leadership structures, purity culture, and unresolved trauma have shaped women's experiences in the church.Drawing on Barna research, lived pastoral stories, and a Wesleyan understanding of holiness as love perfected, this episode asks a deeper question: What happens when formation fails to produce freedom?Key themes include:• The growing gender gap in church attendance• Why women leave without abandoning faith• The impact of shame-based discipleship• Women in ministry and invisible ceilings• Purity culture and spiritual trauma• Why silence feels safer than staying• What faithful formation looks like nowThis episode is not an indictment. It is an invitation—to listen, to repent where needed, and to build churches where women are not merely welcomed, but needed.REFERENCED RESEARCH & THINKERSBarna Group• Gen Z attendance trends and gender gap research• Studies on church disengagement and trust in leadershipSurvey Center on American Life• Faith deconstruction and institutional trust• Gendered religious disengagementBeth Moore• Public departure from the Southern Baptist Convention• Reflections on women, authority, and ScriptureMildred Bangs Wynkoop• A Theology of Love• Holiness as relational restoration, not behavioral perfectionScriptural anchors used or referenced:• Galatians 3:28• John 4 (Woman at the Well)• Resurrection witness of Mary Magdalene• Ephesians 5 (mutual submission, not hierarchy)Takeaways:Gen Z women are experiencing a quiet exodus from church, indicating a deeper relational breakdown.This exodus is characterized by a lack of belonging rather than outright rejection of faith.The data reveals a significant gap in church attendance between young men and women.Church leadership must address the relational safety and equal treatment of women in ministry.Many young women feel unseen and confined to narrow roles within church communities.The shift observed among young women invites churches to reflect on their practices and priorities.This podcast uses the following third-party services for analysis: Podcorn - https://podcorn.com/privacyOP3 - https://op3.dev/privacy

Yep, this episode from the 'century ago in Kentucky' series should technically have been about February 1926. I didn't realize I had been researching 101 years ago until I was about to hit publish!

When young people age out of the foster care system at age 18, they often don't have a place to go. In South Jersey, young women who can't afford their own place or college yet, or who just need some support, can go to Unique Sistas Transitional House, recently established by Yolanda Stephenson. Racquel Williams talks with Yolanda and their Housing and Community Development Manager, Tracy Harris, about the challenges these young women face and how Unique Sistas helps. Then, on Shara in the City, we visit the William Way Center's art exhibit, "The Tangle I've Gotten Into", on display at Imperfect Gallery while the center is under renovation. Shara Dae Howard speaks with artist and Philly LGBTQ+ community icon Arleen Olshan, who helped form the foundation of Philly's LGBTQ+ activism.

It is an invitation into the great and ongoing story of God's work in the world. Pastors Eric, Mark, Susan, Daniel, and other leaders open the Scriptures not as a collection of abstract ideas but as the living, breathing witness to God's kingdom breaking into our midst. Each episode is a call—not merely to listen, but to take part, to step forward into the life of faith with renewed vision and purpose. Week by week, the pastors and leaders explore the deep rhythms of Christian discipleship—prayer, fasting, generosity—not as isolated duties but as part of a larger, richer, and more beautiful whole. They unpack these ancient practices in light of Jesus himself, the one in whom heaven and earth have come together. But they also turn their attention to the realities of everyday life—relationships, finances, the struggles and joys of being human—demonstrating how the gospel is not merely about what we believe but about how we live as God's renewed people in the present age.

Our days are shaped by rules and regulations.   The expiry date stamped on the sandwich we picked up for lunch. The charge for the plastic bag at the checkout. The banner that asks if we consent to cookies. There's the big stuff too. The security checks before we fly, the safety marks on our new tech and the seatbelt we click into place without thinking.   But despite its ubiquity, regulation sparks mixed feelings. While some rules feel reassuring, others feel restrictive. When done right, regulation can be a catalyst for societal progress and economic growth. It can unlock markets, enforce ethical standards, and build trust. It can also bring challenges too, adding layers of frustration, cost, and complexity to new ideas and initiatives.  With governments now demanding that regulators actively support growth, there's an opportunity to reimagine regulation. Can it be designed to stimulate, rather than stifle, innovation? Is there a way to keep the societal benefits and skip the unnecessary challenges? Or do we simply need to improve our approach and understanding to regulation – and prepare for more of it in the future?  That's what we're exploring with Rob Bishton, CEO of the Civil Aviation Authority, and Sam Walsh, Partner and UK Public Sector Regulation Lead at Deloitte, as we ask: Does regulation help or hinder growth? Tune in to find out: What does successful regulation look like? Does new regulation only ever occur after a crisis? How can regulation stay ahead of new and emerging industries? What can businesses do to prepare for future regulatory changes?   Enjoyed this episode?

Allie opens the week fired up, drawing eerie parallels between 2020's BLM-fueled chaos and today's anti-ICE protests. She exposes the manufactured outrage, media double standards, and toxic empathy that shield criminals while demonizing law enforcement and Christians. Allie digs into why liberal women — especially Gen Z white progressive women — fall hardest for these traps, channeling misplaced mothering instincts into activism and politics instead of children, leading to bitterness, instability, and selective empathy. She breaks down the viral article “Why Young Women Moved Left While Young Men Stayed Sane” by Vittorio, citing data on the growing gender-political divide, social media's consensus engine, university echo chambers, declining marriage and motherhood priorities, and women's higher agreeableness, making them more susceptible to propaganda. This is a no-nonsense call to critical thinking, discernment, and biblical clarity.

EPISODE SUMMARY In this episode, Emily sits down with volleyball legend Gabby Reece—professional athlete, podcast host of The Gabby Reece Show, entrepreneur—to talk about the unsexy truths that actually keep long-term relationships alive. Gabby pulls no punches as she reveals her controversial "48-hour sex rule," and how treating sex like going to the gym (just get your shoes on and show up) has sustained their passion for decades. This conversation dismantles the romanticized version of marriage and replaces it with raw honesty about vulnerability, stoicism almost ending her relationship, and why "misogynists are bitches" but real masculinity is powerful, protective, and tender. Gabby shares her four rules for keeping an alpha male happy (hint: food and sex made the list), the farmer versus flower dynamic that prevents resentment, and why her self-care hierarchy puts herself first, her relationship second, and her kids third—unapologetically. In this episode, you'll learn: • The 48-hour sex rule works—scheduling sex isn't sexy, but it's sexier than one partner begging and the other constantly rejecting; Gabby and Laird have sex every other day, and she admits she strategically loads her calendar the day after because she "doesn't have to answer to anyone" • Clear the decks daily to avoid divorce—Laird confronts everything immediately (every look, tone, word) so resentments never build; Gabby credits this practice with saving their marriage after years of her being too stoic nearly ended it • Understanding the farmer vs. flower dynamic—sometimes one partner is in the spotlight (the flower) while the other supports (the farmer), and the roles switch; when one person is always the farmer, resentment builds and relationships suffer • Real masculinity isn't misogyny—true masculine strength includes compassion, protection, and tenderness; we've trained men to feel bad about their masculinity, and bringing kindness (not anger) while setting boundaries helps everyone thrive • You have the goods—ask for what you want—Gabby's advice to young women about sex is radical: stop performing, start demanding your pleasure, and remember that good sex is about mutual understanding, not just one person's orgasm More Dr. Emily:  • Shop With Emily!

Psychotherapist and patient advocate Sara Rands discusses her article "Early-onset breast cancer: a survivor's story." Sara shares her harrowing journey of finding a lump at age 32 despite having no family history and receiving a stage 3C diagnosis. She highlights the terrifying reality that mammograms often miss tumors in dense tissue and challenges the medical community to address why young women are frequently dismissed or misdiagnosed. The conversation addresses the rising incidence of early-onset disease, racial disparities in mortality rates, and the desperate need for research focused on younger populations. We must demand better screening tools to ensure mothers get the chance to see their children grow up. Our presenting sponsor is Microsoft Dragon Copilot.

Primary is so much more than schedules, rolls, and meetings—it's a sacred opportunity to love, lift, and lead like the Savior. In this inspiring interview, we explore how Primary presidencies and leaders can transform everyday administration into meaningful ministry. Michelle Colledge lives in Cedar Hills, Utah with her husband, Rick, and their five children. She owns and coaches at Canyon Gymnastics and loves reading, traveling, and spending time with her family. She graduated from Utah Valley University, served a full-time mission in the North Carolina Raleigh Mission, and has served in various callings including stake Primary president, ward Primary president, and in several Primary and Young Women presidencies. Watch the video and share your thoughts in the Zion Lab community Transcript available with the video in the Zion Lab community Key Insights Building Community: Michelle emphasizes the importance of creating a sense of community within Primary by engaging with children and their families, such as through home visits for birthdays, which fosters personal connections. Perceptive Leadership: Leaders should be observant and responsive to the needs of children, ensuring that every child feels valued and included. This includes recognizing when a child feels overlooked and taking steps to address it. Innovative Programming: The introduction of a stake Primary devotional allowed children to actively participate in leadership roles, such as greeters and speakers, which empowered them and made the event more engaging. Personalized Involvement: Michelle highlights the significance of knowing each child’s name and interests, which helps leaders connect on a deeper level and enhances the overall Primary experience. Flexibility in Leadership: Leaders should be willing to adapt and create new opportunities for service and connection, as demonstrated by the transition from traditional birthday celebrations to personalized home visits during COVID-19. Leadership Applications Foster Personal Connections: Latter-day Saint leaders can implement home visits or personalized notes to recognize children's milestones, enhancing their sense of belonging and importance within the community. Encourage Participation: By inviting children to take on roles in Primary programs, leaders can help them develop confidence and a sense of responsibility, making church activities more meaningful. Be Observant and Responsive: Leaders should regularly assess the dynamics within their Primary classes, looking for ways to support teachers and children, ensuring that everyone feels included and valued in the Primary experience.

Text Me Here!!!Happy Sabbath! And....Happy Day 7 of our 12 days! I'm so excited to share with your this activity that I got from one of my Young Women leaders! She would write a letter at the end of the year to Christ, telling Him what she was going to give to Him as a gift that next year.Now how do you give a gift to the One who gave you everything? More times than not, He is wanting more time with you. So instead of just vaguely telling him what we are gonna give Him, let's be intentional and lets give him a well thought out, planned, intentional gift!I've got some ideas for you, but let me know what you come up with!*****Links:The Ruthless Elimination of Hurry: https://www.amazon.com/Ruthless-Elimination-Hurry-Emotionally-Spiritually/dp/0525653090/ref=tmm_hrd_swatch_0?_encoding=UTF8&dib_tag=se&dib=eyJ2IjoiMSJ9._QSOabtYwXQWFkK_6KM-YGwAQ6IpBSZHIYWAqyFYvBY8gRuV2KgH1q-24BCXH7soX8zhlKGxO7bsJyaPgHntG-5P7eo0Mw6eNldujMNqBNYB6Iz-KJOvMqaSrPCY5fuPtVmUc9sBb4xf0Ge2XDpzVH9nuQk2-qA2X5JTmwUwhUoTe4SUEtnpGdxrRetIR4WaelGOEvdLl8muQB4SUboXrHxvKY5_V7dRrzMqa_K_UtY.zdQmocQP9DbGqUeiUKonQ1_d7a96xS_AWwacdUhz79k&qid=1765118092&sr=8-1 E-mail: munchandminglepodcast@gmail.com Insta: @munchandminglepodcast

In this special on-location episode, Mike Palmer visits the headquarters of The Urban Assembly (UA) in New York City's Financial District to sit down with David Adams, CEO of The Urban Assembly and host of the Innovations in Public Education podcast. We explore how David and his team have evolved from designing 22 high-performing schools in NYC to "designing tools" that solve critical constraints in public education. David breaks down his "Theory of Constraints"—analyzing how barriers like time, knowledge, and resources limit school outcomes—and how UA is using Artificial Intelligence to dismantle them. The centerpiece of this innovation is Project CAFE (Classroom Automated Feedback Environment). David explains how this AI-powered tool acts as an "instant replay" for educators, allowing them to view 10-second clips of their own practice—such as questioning techniques or student talk time—without the high cost or pressure of traditional observation. By reducing the cost of feedback to roughly $150 per teacher, CAFE is flipping the script on professional development, moving from an "avalanche of evaluation" to a "drip, drip, drip of professional development". We also touch on the Urban Assembly's impressive results, including a record-breaking 92.4% graduation rate, and how their focus on social-emotional learning (SEL) and workforce readiness is reshaping economic mobility for students. Key Takeaways: From Schools to Tools: How UA supports its network of 22 schools while building scalable solutions for the broader education system. Project CAFE: An inside look at the AI tool that automates observation, offering private, low-stakes feedback for teachers to improve their "game tape". The Theory of Constraints: Using AI to reduce the "time tax" on learning outcomes and instructional coaching. Workforce Readiness: How "CounselorGPT" and Career and Technical Education (CTE) pathways are moving students from "guessing to guidance" regarding the labor market. Record-Breaking Outcomes: Discussing the 92.4% graduation rate and the 100% success rate at the Urban Assembly Institute for Math and Science for Young Women. Mentioned in this Episode: Podcast: Innovations in Public Education with David Adams. Organization: The Urban Assembly. Tools: Project CAFE and CounselorGPT. Next Step for You: If you enjoyed David's insights on solving constraints in education, would you like me to summarize the specific "Theory of Constraints" framework he uses so you can apply it to your own organizational challenges?

Bryan interviews Annie Craig, Madison Hill and Kenzie Klinkhamer, three young women in their 20's who just completed a Hybrid Virtual Journey Group with women from New York City, Northwest Arkansas, Kansas City and Dallas.  Their experience is very inspiring and lends validity to the statistics which say 80% of Gen Z are wanting more of The Bible.  We are praying for a Discipleship revival among the next generation, and stories like this one tell us The Journey will help them.

Are you exhausted from constantly striving, pushing, and trying to be perfect? In this vulnerable and intimate episode of Masks Off for People Pleasers & Perfectionists, I'm sharing the truth about my complicated relationship with my inner perfectionist—who I lovingly call Perfectionistic Paula.For decades, Paula ran the show. She kept me hustling, grinding, striving, and pushing past my limits… all in the name of safety, approval, and control. But as I've moved deeper into my own healing, something surprising happened: I no longer wanted to push. I no longer felt that constant drive. I didn't even recognize myself without her.This episode is an honest look at what happens after you put the sword down, slow down, and start reclaiming the parts of you that perfectionism silenced. I talk about:✨ How perfectionism shows up as a survival strategy ✨ The emotional and physical costs of letting Paula run the show ✨ My struggles with chronic health symptoms and deep exhaustion ✨ The strange “void” that comes when you finally stop striving ✨ How to find the middle ground between burnout and balance ✨ Why your 20s can feel so overwhelming and confusing — and how perfectionism makes it worse ✨ How to soften, surrender, and listen to your inner wisdom instead of the pressure to "figure it all out"If you're a young woman in your twenties navigating identity, burnout, pressure, or perfectionism — this episode will speak directly to your soul.

Caroline Barrow was raised in a typical Mormon household in Louisiana. While she was a faithful believer in the Church, she always had questions about certain teachings but was often encouraged to halt her critical thinking on these issues. She chose to attend BYU and serve a Mormon mission, but continued to be plagued by questions—particularly around polygamy and the treatment of women in the LDS faith. Caroline also found herself struggling with scrupulosity, perfectionism, and the many pressures placed on women in the Church.Listen as she shares her story of how she confronted these questions and learned to trust herself and her instincts as an analytical woman within the Mormon faith.___________________YouTubeAt Mormon Stories we explore, celebrate, and challenge Mormon culture through in-depth stories told by members and former members of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints as well as scholars, authors, LDS apologists, and other professionals.  Our overall mission is to: 1.

In this documentary, freelance producer Alison Motluk explores the history, significance, and reality of egg freezing for women.
