Are We Addicted to the Victim Narrative? Rebecca Reacts to Laura Henshaw

The internet is starting to feel like high school again… The popular girls, the bullies, the fear of saying what you really think in case you get called out or shamed online. 

In this first episode of my new series Rebecca Reacts, I’m unpacking Laura Henshaw’s approach to publicly pulling apart other people’s content. I’ll be sharing why I take the opposite approach to Laura in her most recent reels, and why I believe her approach is fueling a dangerous culture of victimhood instead of empowering women.

But this isn’t an episode where I try to convince you to agree with me. I want to use the space to start a real conversation. 

So let me know what you think - whether you agree or disagree. Comment on whatever platform you’re listening to this on, I’ll be chatting about it across Instagram, YouTube and Spotify comments, and I’d love to hear your perspective.

In this episode, you’ll hear: 

• The real reason I think Laura Henshaw targets young men online (and why I believe it’s not about “calling them in” at all)

• Why “victim consciousness” is more dangerous than any “toxic reel”

• Why doubling down on your truth might be the healthiest thing you can do… Even if it makes you unpopular

• The Hero’s Journey every man must walk (and why you should never criticise a man if you want change)

• The Heroine’s Journey for women (it might explain why you feel so disconnected right now)

• How to end a fight in your own life, without switching sides or losing the friendship

…and so much more.
