The Origin of the Unspeak Easy

The speaker discusses how the Unspeak Easy, a retreat and online community for women, was born out of a need for honest and nuanced discussions on controversial topics that have become off-limits in today's culture. She noticed a trend of women censoring themselves in fear of being ostracized or hurting their children, and wanted to create a space where women could freely engage in dialogue without judgment. The retreats, which include guest speakers and discussion sessions, provide a sanctuary for women to have productive conversations and develop tools to navigate complex issues.
