Featured Episodes

In this episode, Lisarah Simonson shares her adoption story, talks about re-visiting her birth country, and coping with racism and stereotypes towards female American Asians. She and Mady also dive into women's rights issues in China, and Asian representation in the media.
​
This discussion is inspired by We Should All Be Feminists by Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie, and while the topics were inspired by the book you do not need to have read the book to follow along with the discussion! A few of the topics that come up in the episode are: Male and female dominated roles and careers, female tendencies to be "like-able," the role that gender plays in every day interactions and why it should matter less, victim blaming, and how to talk about feminism, sexism, and gender equality with people who don't get it.
"Feminism isn't about making women strong; women are already strong. It's about changing the way the world perceives that strength."
-G.D. Anderson

My Feminist Paradox

As a feminist, I try to find opportunities to be strong and empowered; yet, it doesn't come naturally to me. I struggle. I doubt myself. I question my abilities and my purpose. This post puts to words the many insecurities I still have as an independent 21st century woman. I wrote this post a few months ago - and I think it is what gave me the courage to start this platform.

Feminist Anthem Playlist

Everybody has that go to playlist that gives them a boost when they're feeling down - and it's even better when those songs just so happen to also be girl power songs. Here are my top 20 feminist inspo songs. Tell me what I missed in the comments and I'll add it to the playlist on Spotify!
