Wild Kindness: Breaking Free from the 'Nice Girl' Trap
Are you exhausted from being everyone's emotional support human? In this game-changing episode, we're unpacking how being "nice" became a cage and why embracing wild kindness might be your key to freedom.
Drawing from bell hooks' radical vision of love and Pierre Bourdieu's social theory, we explore:
- How society weaponizes kindness against women
- The real cost of emotional labour in modern life
- Why "being nice" is a tool of social control
- How to practice fierce kindness without guilt
- Setting boundaries as an act of revolutionary self-love
Perfect for recovering people-pleasers, boundary-setting beginners, and anyone ready to redefine what kindness means on their own terms.
