Summary

Anna Malaika Tubbs is a two-time New York Times bestselling author and a leading voice in gender, race, and equity. Her newest book Erased: What American Patriarchy Has Hidden From Us is a wake-up call, one that challenges us to rethink everything from who gets remembered to who gets rewarded. I met Anna recently at a retreat hosted by Onsite in Tennessee and she was magnetic. The best part about meeting her is I had no idea what she did for a career and didn't learn about her books until the very last day. Once I heard what she was writing about, I knew she would make the perfect guest for this show. Anna pulls back the curtain on the narratives that have quietly shaped how we see ourselves, our businesses, and our worth. What sets her apart is her ability to take complex systems and translate them into powerful stories that reveal what's been buried and show us how to reclaim what's ours. And trust me, you'll never see patriarchy, power, or your own story the same way again. So if you've ever felt like the rules of success weren't written for you, if you've struggled with visibility or making space for your full self in your business, if you've been playing small because it felt safer than being too much, this conversation is for you.

1:30.1	relates back to these historic definitions of who we're supposed to be and what roles we're
1:35.9	supposed to fulfill. I'm Jenna Coutcher, and I help you trade hustle for purpose and build a
1:42.4	business that gives you the life you actually want to live.
