#90 | Why Strong Independent Women Are Miserable

The reality is that women cannot handle stress the way men can and there’s a really great reason for that. If they could the following would not be true:Women are losing their cycles in record numbers and dissociating from their bodies. Women are using antidepressants 2X the number men are. 80% of autoimmune disfunction and diseases happens in women.These are not accidents. In this episode I explore the differences between men and women that have been true since the beginning of time and remain true today. I discuss the themes of beauty, relational intuition, purpose, and taking action. I break down the story of the fall in a new way (inspired by Stasi Eldredge) and clarify what the purpose of man and woman is and what happens when we live the opposite of our design.TIMESTAMPS:00:00 - 01:07 Episode Trailer and Intro01:07 - 03:10 What’s best for one gender is best for the other03:10 - 04:10 The issue with dating culture04:10 - 06:42 What causes dysfunctional menstrual cycles?06:42 - 08:24 The worrying prevalence of autoimmune conditions today08:24 - 10:22 No one is happier in the West than married mothers10:22 - 11:19 Women are not happy today11:19 - 13:52 What really happened in the garden of Eden?13:52 - 15:43 Women vs men represented in art15:43 - 17:18 Who's really to blame for the Garden of Eden Saga?17:18 - 18:53 How the fall of man and woman still affects us today18:53 - 20:37 What really fulfills women?20:37 - 22:05 What do women actually want?22:05 - 25:55 Men react to women, not the other way around25:55 - 26:47 Final Thoughts and key takeaways26:47 - 27:25 Outro____________________________________________If you found some value today then help me spread the word!
