About this listen

You’ve seen the TikToks—women saying they’re “not girls’ girls,” tradwife aesthetics glamorized, soft life pressure mounting, and a strange shift in how we talk (and feel) about sisterhood. In this episode of Ladies of Sosa, we get real about the rising pressure to perform femininity perfectly—on social media, in relationships, and even around other women.

From submission content and financial control to “pick-me” behavior and girl code breakdowns, we explore what it means to move through this world as a young woman raised in community, culture, and often—confusion. We ask: is this softness—or survival? And what does it take to build trust between women when patriarchy still shapes so much of how we show up?
