Let’s be real—being a woman isn’t either empowering or exhausting… it’s both, often at the same damn time. And the parts we’re told to keep quiet about? The messy, emotional, deeply human ones? Those are exactly the conversations we need to have out loud.In this episode, I’m joined by Dr. Jessica Zucker, psychologist, writer, and creator of the viral #IHadaMiscarriage campaign. She’s the author of I Had a Miscarriage: A Memoir, A Movement, and her newest book Normalize It: Upending the Silence, Stigma, and Shame That Shape Women’s Lives is a battle cry for truth, healing, and visibility.We talk about the power of saying the quiet parts out loud—especially when it comes to miscarriage, reproductive health, grief, and the impossible expectations women are expected to carry. This is for anyone who’s tired of pretending everything’s fine and ready to tell the whole story—not just the polished parts.In This Episode, We Cover:✅ The emotional toll of silence, stigma, and “looking fine”✅ Why normalizing miscarriage, loss, and vulnerability matters✅ The importance of speaking up (even when it’s uncomfortable)✅ Why telling your story is healing for you and for othersWhen we normalize what’s real, we free ourselves—and each other. Let’s stop hiding our stories and start healing through them.Connect with Jessica: Book: Normalize It: Upending the Silence, Stigma, and Shame that Shame Women’s LivesIG: https://www.instagram.com/ihadamiscarriage/Related Podcast Episodes:The Good Mother Myth with Nancy Reddy | 274The Resilience Myth with Soraya Chemaly | 249127 / Trauma with Jessi BeyerGet up to $200 off Square hardware when you sign up at square.com/go/tiww ! #squarepodShare the Love:If you found this episode insightful, please share it with a friend, tag us on social media, and leave a review on your favorite podcast platform!🔗 Subscribe & Review:Apple Podcasts | Spotify | Amazon Music

How To Practice Radical Self Care with Shelly Tygielski | 302

We’ve been told self-care is selfish, indulgent—even unnecessary. That being a “good woman” means putting everyone else first and clapping for ourselves last. But what if real self-care isn’t a luxury—it’s a radical, world-shifting, life-saving act of rebellion?In this episode, I’m joined by Shelly Tygielski, author of Sit Down to Rise Up and founder of Pandemic of Love, a mutual aid movement that’s provided over $100 million in direct aid. Named one of Mindful.org’s “12 Powerful Women of the Mindfulness Movement,” Shelly is here to help us rethink everything we thought we knew about self-care.We talk about the toxic messages that keep women burned out and worn down, the myth of positive thinking, and how showing up for ourselves—fully and unapologetically—is the foundation of showing up for anyone else. Because self-care isn’t about escape. It’s about power. It’s about choosing yourself on purpose.In This Episode, We Cover:✅ Why self-care is an act of activism—not selfishness✅ The real reason “positive vibes only” can be toxic✅ How to opt out of burnout culture and still get sh*t done✅ The difference between self-soothing and true self-care✅ Creating community care alongside personal care✅ What it really looks like to walk away from the tightrope (and the circus)Self-care isn’t selfish. It’s a revolution. And it starts with you.Connect with Shelly: Website: http://www.shellytygielski.comBook: https://a.co/d/j8gsf7MIG: http://www.instagram.com/mindfulskatergirlFB: http://www.facebook.com/shellymeditationRelated Podcast Episodes:Why We Brush Off The Idea Of Self-Care with Dr. Christine Coleman | 223156 / Cell Care with Dr. Monisha BhanoteHow To Eat Lunch with Cheryl K.
