Description:

This week, we investigate why girls are taught that it’s cute to be scared and how that impacts us as adults. We also share our read/watch/listen/follow recommendations for this month.

What you’ll hear:

  • Why we teach young women it's 'cute' to be scared
  • Ways we've seen ourselves both give in to and stand up to expected cultural norms for women
  • How perfectionism affects courage
  • Tips for being brave
  • What we're reading, watching, listening to, and following

Can I quote you on that?

  • “Timidity has become a function of femininity” Maggie
  • “I was aware of getting extra points for being a girl who was willing to take a risk.” Jacey
  • “You are a lioness.” Maggie
  • “I’m still working through that summer reading list. I know it’s October.” Jacey
