Thank you to today’s sponsors: Paleovalley: 30 for $36 at https://paleovalley.com/lisa Monarch: 50% off your first year with code WOI https://monarch.com You ever try to speak your truth, only to have someone twist the conversation until you question your own sanity? Or maybe you’ve watched a woman finally find the courage to call out abuse, and instead of support… she’s met with “Are you sure you’re not just crazy?” If you’ve ever felt silenced, gaslit, or labeled the “unstable” one just for standing up for yourself, homie, THIS is your episode. Today, I’m joined by chartered psychologist and author Jessica Taylor, whose viral work and bestsellers (“Sexy But Psycho,” “Why Women Are Blamed for Everything”) have helped thousands of women name exactly what’s been done to them, and reclaim their power. Get ready, because we GO THERE: the history of pathologizing women, how mental health labels get weaponized, the toxic fantasy of the “crazy but sexy” woman, and why the justice system is rigged against us from the start. Here’s exactly what we dive into: - The secret history of “hysteria”, and how abusive men STILL use psychiatry to silence women - Why so many victims get labeled “crazy” (while their abusers are called “vulnerable”) - How to make a REAL safety plan (and why you shouldn’t go to police first) - What to do when even your female friends, therapists, or juries turn against you Chapter Titles [00:04:01] Famous women publicly labeled “unstable”, and why the tactic works [00:05:17] Being institutionalized for reporting abuse: two shocking real cases [00:09:09] Pathologizing victims vs defending abusers: who mental health serves [00:13:05] How your appearance changes whether you’re believed in court [00:15:18] Internalized misogyny: why women judge other women so harshly [00:22:24] The romanticization of abuse and why movies get it dangerously wrong [00:24:59] The “crazy woman” stereotype and generations of psychiatric control [00:32:18] Is medical misogyny still happening now?
