How to Take No Sh*t From Men (and Still ...

Dear Media
About this episode

Put this episode on if you want to get fired up (in the best way). We loved having author and influencer Drew Afualo in the studio going all the way off about the patriarchy and taking no shit from men (on the internet and IRL). She shares her journey of working in sports, getting fired (like all the cool girls do), and how she found her voice and created the platform she has today. She discusses how we all start out as Pick Me Girls, dating men when you hate men, the fallacy of the “leftover woman,” how to be more brave and find your voice, the one tip she has for anyone who wants to be an influencer, how men and women reflect differently after they go through a breakup, and so much more. Before Drew joins us, we talk about Rayna’s meal prepping and the embarrassing thing Ashley did in her sleep. Enjoy! 

Follow Drew on Instagram @drewafualo and Tiktok @drewafualo, listen to her podcasts Two Idiot Girls and The Comment Section, and read her book Loud
