Summary
Damaged goods', 'Used goods', 'slut', 'spinster'...: Just few of the many ill sexist labels against women that we've all heard and been called before, by a man or society. Whether it's to infantalise, informalise or demote, these sexist terms against women only act to demean us.
Has a man ever tried to make you feel like you're not worth a million dollars? News flash, YOU ARE! On today's solo episode, we are getting RID of the narratives that society places on women! No husband? Who cares. No kids? That's one less bill to pay. No longer will we allow the world around us to control the type of life we should be living. We are owning our sh*t and being bosses while doing it. Women are NOT used goods once we hit a certain age, and we are most definitely not missing out if we're not married yet. Everything comes at the right time, and that means on OUR time.
Violet ends the episode with a special Q&A segment because who can't use a therapy session with the mental queen queen herself? Remember, you ARE the prize!
