  • Episode 47 - Haunted History: Lobotomies
    Oct 13 2025
    In this Haunted History episode, we uncover the chilling story of lobotomies and the women who were most often subjected to them. Sold as a miracle cure for everything from depression to defiance, the procedure left thousands of women scarred, silenced, or erased altogether. Behind the surgical theater curtain was a system that punished women for being “too much”—too emotional, too sexual, too ambitious. From housewives and daughters institutionalized against their will to famous cases like Rosemary Kennedy, lobotomies became a tool of control disguised as medicine. We’ll explore how this brutal chapter still haunts women’s healthcare today, where dismissal and overreach often go hand in hand.

  • Episode 46 - Haunted History: Hysteria
    Oct 6 2025
    In this Haunted History episode, we dig into Hysteria. The infamous diagnosis that turned women’s emotions, sexuality, and pain into a medical horror story. From ancient Greece’s myth of the “wandering womb” to the locked wards of 19th-century asylums, hysteria was never about healing women. It was about controlling them, silencing them, and punishing anyone who refused to conform. We also ask the unsettling question: has hysteria really disappeared, or is it still haunting us today under new names and modern disguises?

  • Episode 41 - Invisible ADHD W/ Shanna Pearson
    Jul 28 2025
    In this episode, we are joined by Shanna Pearson, a leading ADHD coach and author of the upcoming book Invisible ADHD (release date 9/9/25). Together we explore the often-missed signs of ADHD in girls and women. We unpack why ADHD often looks different in women, how traits like selective mutism, emotional sensitivity, and people-pleasing can delay diagnosis, and what happens when those internalized patterns carry into adulthood. Shanna brings a powerful mix of personal vulnerability and expertise to this important conversation. Whether you're exploring your own neurodivergence or supporting someone who is, this episode challenges assumptions and offers practical hope.

  • Episode 40 - Midwives, Witches & Nazis
    Jul 21 2025
    In this episode we uncover how midwives and herbalists (once trusted healers) were branded as witches in a campaign to strip women of power, land, and medical authority. We trace that legacy from witch trials to Nazi-era rollbacks of women’s rights to the ongoing failure to ratify the ERA in the U.S. The question remains: Who feels threatened when women have control over themselves?
