Let's talk about single shaming.
Chances are, you're been victim to it at least once in your life. You've been told, directly or indirectly, that since you're clearly so fabulous and still single, that you simply must be doing something wrong! You're too picky. Or you're too thin. Or too loud. Or too desperate. The list goes on and on.
And who are the people most likely to be using this disparaging language on us? Our friends. Our family. Even our own mothers.
To be fair, it's not really their fault. They have been indoctrinated for decades with society's belief that a woman's worth is determined by her relationship status. But Dr. Karin and I are not havin that, and we take a super deep dive discussing all this and more from her acclaimed book, "Single is the New Black: Don't Wear White 'Til It's Right," as well as her experiences from her background as a psychology professor for ten years in Chicago, as well as from her time being an accomplished (yet single) woman in her late 30's.
It's a super juicy episode so buckle up and put on your women's empowerment body armor for this excellent episode helping us celebrate International Women's History Month!
