TW: This episode includes mentions of self-harm, sexual assault and suicide, as well as references to violence, so if any of these topics are even remotely triggering to you, definitely skip this ep & join us for one of our future ones <3

In our new 'researchy' series… we dig into a topic we want to know more about and share with you what we learn! and as the title says this is part two of our research into female RAGE. we discuss the actual expression of female rage in the creative industry (movies & past literature). We also question the expression of female “anger” and what that can actually look like. We dive specifically into Elena ferantte, her work and how it positions female rage as a disruptive force but also an empowering one.

pour yourself a cup of scalding hot tea/red wine (really any beverage that makes you feel powerfully vengeful will do hehe) & join us in this discussion 🍷😤
