Ep.33: Have we taken feminism a bit too far? | A few thoughts on the feminist ideology | Life Lessons with Lau Podcast

In this episode, I’m diving into a topic that always seems to stir conversation: Feminism.

It’s no secret that feminism has become one of the most debated and, at times, misunderstood topics of our time. With so many differing opinions about what it really stands for and what it aims to achieve, it’s worth asking: Have we unmasked its true purpose or have we just added more complicated ayers? What exactly is the core of this ideology and why do we never seem to agree on it?

Join me as I share my personal reflections, ask some uncomfortable questions, and explore what feminism looks like in today’s world.

Let’s talk. Let’s question. Let’s grow.
Enjoy the episode!
