Episode 105: Combating Feminine Myths with Keshia
Description
Earthquakes, eclipses, epiphanies, oh my! Rachel talks about recent shakeups and shares some Gone Girl wisdom about the proverbial “cool girl” before jumping into her conversation with Keshia about combating feminine myths, setting boundaries, and dating authentically to find your perfect partnership.
Episode Notes:
“It is so ingrained in us to be dependent on others. It is so ingrained in us to seek validation and to feel like the only way we can survive is to make others happy. And yes - in some cases that is a great recipe for survival. But it’s not a great recipe for thriving.” - Keshia Rice
Conversation with Keshia begins at 00:11:48 .
