Update: 2024-11-11
Description
Jennifer Cox is a psychotherapist, author, and co-host of the 'Women Are Mad' podcast and in this episode she takes me on her journey from a challenging childhood as a bright girl, with a severely autistic sister, that put her on the path to doing her current work in women's mental health. Jennifer shares insights into the hidden rage women feel, its impact on our health, and how societal systems continue to oppress women. The conversation covers her time working with men in prison settings, her transition to focusing on women's mental health, and the success of her book 'Women Are Angry.' Tune in for an engaging discussion on female rage, systemic issues, her thoughts on women tearing each other down, and the importance of speaking out, spreading awareness, keeping on keeping on, and screaming into pillows!
