In this episode, Elle explores the dark legacy of witch hunts and how they continue to shape modern attitudes toward women. Drawing on Mona Chollet's In Defense of Witches, she examines four archetypes that were targeted during the Renaissance witch persecutions and remain under scrutiny today: the independent woman who lives outside male authority, the childless woman who refuses reproduction, the aging woman whose wisdom threatens social order, and the woman of knowledge whose expertise challenges established power. Elle traces how these historical persecutions established cultural scripts that still operate through stigma, invisibility, and medical dismissal rather than literal flames. She argues that reclaiming what was once feared in women—independence, wisdom, age, and autonomy—is essential to breaking free from internalized witch-hunt thinking and turning individual liberation into collective power.

“Often I Yearn for Campus” by Catherine Shannon - https://open.substack.com/pub/catherineshannon/p/often-i-yearn-for-campus
In this episode, Elle explores why women are increasingly drawn to intellectual pursuits: building personal curriculums, romanticizing bookstores, and treating reading like a sacred practice. She argues this "academic-fication" of women's interests is a direct response to rising anti-intellectualism, supported by data showing Americans reading significantly less over the past two decades. Elle emphasizes that reading isn't just an aesthetic; It's essential exercise for the mind that builds empathy, nuance, and critical thinking. The episode closes with practical advice for joining the "anti-anti-intellectualism club," including how to create your own personal curriculum and start a commonplace journal to slow down scrolling and deepen engagement with ideas.

In this week's episode, Elle takes a deep dive into the "performative male epidemic" - a cultural phenomenon that's generating buzz across social media. She explores how today's matcha-wielding, bell hooks-reading men are just the latest in a historical lineage of alternative masculine displays, from Elvis to hippies to hipsters. Drawing fascinating parallels to "sneaker males" in evolutionary biology, Elle examines how these performative behaviors function as mating strategies. While acknowledging some positive aspects, she ultimately warns viewers about the disconnect between performance and authentic values, encouraging women to trust their pattern recognition abilities when navigating relationships. This thought-provoking episode blends cultural analysis, scientific research, and practical advice about discernment in the modern dating landscape.

In this episode, Elle explores what female bonobos can teach us about creating more peaceful societies through solidarity. Dispelling the myth that bonobos simply refused to mate with aggressive males, Elle reveals research showing that female bonobos actually built coalitions to protect each other, reducing male aggression despite males being physically larger. Elle weaves together evolutionary biology, feminist theory, and cultural examples to demonstrate how women have always shaped human evolution. Drawing from Cat Bohannon's "Eve" and Adrienne Rich's writings, the episode makes a powerful case for women's collective power to create a more peaceful future through intentional choices and solidarity.

In this episode, Elle dissects the viral TikTok trend where women post videos claiming "my boyfriend said he'll get me [something expensive] if this gets [insane amount] views." Elle examines how these social media challenges function as modern humiliation rituals that normalize below-minimum relationship standards. She shares a striking example where an influencer purchased Coach bags for a creator whose husband set impossible conditions, illustrating how these trends reveal societal issues around women's worth. Elle concludes with her signature wisdom: "You don't need a rich man. You need a generous man," emphasizing that women deserve partners who materialize their desires when capable, rather than subjecting them to public challenges for basic consideration.

In this episode, Elle dives into a thought-provoking discussion about certain behaviors in public spaces. She examines a viral TikTok trend where a woman refuses to interact with waitstaff at a restaurant while their male partners handle all interactions. Rather than merely criticizing, Elle explores whether this behavior represents a k*nk being performed publicly, questions its claims to tradition, and asks what authentic princess treatment might actually look like. The episode culminates with Elle's powerful perspective that true femininity means self-alignment – encouraging women to authentically be themselves rather than conforming to restrictive rules that diminish their presence. Elle concludes that "princess treatment" should never mean making yourself small or silencing your voice.

In this episode, we unpack the loaded term "bridezilla" and why it's more than just a label—it's a symptom of deeper societal issues. From exploring how wedding planning has become women's unpaid labor to examining why men actually benefit more from marriage, Elle challenges the notion that wanting a well-executed wedding makes someone difficult. Through cultural critique, she reframes the "bridezilla" stereotype, arguing that these "monster brides" are often just women navigating unrealistic expectations, traditions, and the pressure to perform perfection. Tune in for a fresh perspective on why being called a bridezilla might just mean you're good at setting boundaries and advocating for yourself.

In this episode of "The Powerhouse of the Celle," Elle challenges popular caveman-inspired wellness trends and their male-centric approach. She explores how the "Man the Hunter" archetype has been debunked by recent scientific evidence, revealing that women were also skilled hunters and possessed unique physiological advantages for endurance activities. Elle argues that modern wellness culture needs to move away from masculine, linear health models and embrace more cyclical, feminine approaches to well-being. The episode emphasizes that true ancestral women's health wasn't about constant optimization or suffering, but rather about honoring natural rhythms, building community, and practicing sustainable self-care. Elle concludes by reminding listeners that women's primal wisdom isn't outdated – it's a vital guide for navigating modern life's challenges.

In this episode, we explore how rest becomes a radical act of resistance for women in our output-obsessed culture. From unpacking the scientific reality of the gender sleep gap to examining how sleep patterns differ between men and women, we dive deep into why women are more exhausted due to a culture that promotes lack of rest. We'll challenge the notion that rest is a privilege to be earned rather than a fundamental right, and discover how feminine restoration isn't just about sleep - it's about reclaiming the time and energy to truly know and accept ourselves. Join us as we explore why rest isn't just recovery for women - it's revolution.

In today's episode of the Spoiled Girlie Support Group, Elle delves deep into the concept of reclaiming the divine feminine and why she temporarily stepped back from creating femininity content. Elle discusses how the true divine feminine has been co-opted and misrepresented in harmful ways. She explores the evolution from girlboss culture to tradwife movements, examining how these trends ultimately worked against women's empowerment. Drawing from Meggan Watterson's "Mary Magdalene Revealed," Elle redefines the divine feminine as an inward journey of self-acceptance and embodiment rather than performative femininity. Join us for an enlightening conversation about authenticity, empowerment, and what it truly means to embrace your divine feminine energy.
