Often, as women, we are told that our bodies are to serve a purpose. We’re told that we are here for man’s pleasure, to carry children, to raise them, keep the perfect house, have the perfect job...etc. Simply, we’re told we’re not here for our own self-expression, pleasure, or happiness. But that’s just not true. In today’s episode, Dr. Valerie Rein and I discuss Patriarchy Stress Disorder, and how we can change the future for generations to come.  Dr. Valerie Rein has discovered Patriarchy Stress Disorder (PSD) and created the only science-backed system for helping women achieve their ultimate success, happiness, and fulfillment by healing the intergenerational trauma of oppression. She holds an EdM in Psychological Counseling from Columbia University and a PhD in Psychology from the Institute of Transpersonal Psychology. Her bestselling book, Patriarchy Stress Disorder: The Invisible Inner Barrier to Women’s Happiness and Fulfillment has been heralded by Amazon reviewers as "the most important body of literary work of our modern times" and "perhaps the most important book of the century for women." Her cutting-edge programs have helped thousands of women shift from survival to thriving and master the game of "How good can it get?" in their work and personal lives.   Here are some great opportunities to get connected with Dr. Valerie: Subscribe to Dr. Valerie's Thriving Notes when you download the first chapter of her book or book resources.
