Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

The History of Childbirth with historian & author Lucy Inglis
Q: What drew you to write a history of childbirth?
I was dissatisfied with the lack of historical context in the conversation about birth and realized that understanding past practices and power dynamics could illuminate why things are the way they are today, and perhaps empower people to reclaim agency.
Ageism, Power & Visibility with Jacynth Bassett, founder of Ageism Is Never In Style
Q: Why is internalized ageism particularly important to address?
Internalized ageism shapes self-perception and behavior across generations; changing how individuals view aging can inform how they treat others and influence policies and workplace practices to better include older workers and value their contributions.
Ageism, Power & Visibility with Jacynth Bassett, founder of Ageism Is Never In Style
Q: What is ageism, and where does it show up in daily life?
Ageism is prejudice or bias based on age, experienced by people of all ages in settings from the workplace to media, and it often manifests through language, assumptions, and stereotypes about what people can or should do at certain ages.
Unapologetically Angry with psychotherapist Jennifer Cox
Q: How can a listener start dealing with anger if they can't access therapy?
Cox emphasizes giving oneself permission to feel and name anger, practicing self-reflection, and using simple conversational starters like 'I feel this way' to communicate with others. Small, repeatable steps toward understanding and expressing anger can create meaningful personal shifts.
Unapologetically Angry with psychotherapist Jennifer Cox
Q: What sparked the idea for Women Are Angry and for writing this book?
Jennifer Cox describes recognizing a consistent pattern in her clinical work: women experience anger that is often suppressed or misunderstood, and naming and validating that anger can transform their mental health and daily lives. Writing the book emerged from that insight and the need to challenge the notion that women should be calm and compliant.
