Summary

With the Epstein files and all the atrocities that they hold coming to light, we can no longer be silent and complacent in a world built on patriarchy, pedophilia, and women as second class citizens. In today’s episode, Rachel unpacks her own experience diving into the realities of the files. As a mother, as a woman, and as a business owner, she shares stories of people she almost worked with that were in the files, and experiences from when she was young that shaped her. If you are not feeling the rage then you are not listening. Tune in for an episode that will inspire you to look closely at the fabric of the society we live in and know in your heart: it’s time to burn it all to the ground.
