This week I'm thrilled to be speaking to author, academic and friend Amanda Montei. Amanda is the author of the book, Touched Out: Misogyny, Consent and Control, and the substack, Mad Woman. This episode is a little different than other episodes in that it's a sort of response episode to the election, specifically how shame shaped it and what we can do to reverse its effects. I feel so fortunate to have friends like Amanda, with whom I can talk honestly and openly without judgment or shame, but also be challenged, enlightened, and provoked to recognize truths beyond my own. So today on the show we talk about shame, white women, the 4B movement and how we have all been doing since the election.

Buy Amanda's book and check out her substack!
