Episode notes

This chapter discusses well-known figures' public remarks about Harvey Weinstein's behavior, Rose McGowan's courage in speaking out, and the backlash she faced. It also delves into gaslighting in the medical industry, sharing personal experiences of being dismissed by doctors based on race or gender.

Read the full transcript here.

When does positivity become toxic? When is it appropriate (or not) to give advice? Can depression really be healed without systemic changes? What are some ways that society at large gaslights people? Why do women sometimes not come forward after sexual assault? What is "freeze or faun"? Do men suffer as much under patriarchy as women?
