Cancel culture used to be a celebrity problem… now it’s coming for anyone with a Wi-Fi connection.

In this solo, I’m unpacking why so many women are watering themselves down online, how pop culture is feeding the fear of being ā€œcanceled,ā€ and why being successful, pretty, opinionated, or visible suddenly feels risky.

If you’ve ever posted then deleted, played it safe, or shrunk yourself to avoid backlash… this episode is your sign to stop censoring your voice.

We chat:

  • 1:20 - The fear that 85% of people secretly have about posting online
  • 3:40 - The attempt to cancel Sydney Sweeney after her ā€œgood genesā€ ad with American EagleĀ 
  • 10:18 - The internet’s leap to racism claims and trad-wife panic against Taylor Swift
  • 16:40 - The online hate following Charlie Kirk’s death
  • 18:50 - Modern day Salem Witch Trials — why creators are terrified of being associated with the ā€œwrongā€ person
  • 21:20 - Matt Rife’s attempted cancellation: is a bad joke grounds for a destroyed career?
  • 27:01 - The impact of the digital mob mentality: a real story from someone in my life who was cancelled onlineĀ 
  • 30:00 - Key lessons from being cancelled online & how the fear of cancellation is affecting your businessĀ 
  • 40:23 - Can you be polar online to without being political?Ā
