Summary

In this unapologetic episode, Caroline Stanbury dives headfirst into one of the most triggering questions in modern relationships: Why do some men still struggle with powerful, successful, confident women?

From boardrooms to bedrooms, Caroline breaks down the double standards, the fragile egos, and the outdated expectations that alpha females still face. She shares her own experiences—being labeled “too much,” intimidating, or “hard to handle”—and why those labels say more about them than they ever did about her.

It’s bold. It’s honest. And it’s for every woman who’s ever been told to shrink herself to be loved. Spoiler alert: we’re done doing that.
