About this listen

We turn a chaotic week—stolen bikes, a shredded laptop, and a dog’s sock surgery—into a guide to better decisions by swapping blame for causation and drama for clarity. We unpack coercive control, how to warn a friend without lecturing, and why scepticism is a safety tool against health misinformation.

• shifting from blame to causation to regain control
• spotting early coercive control masked as care
• using calm, specific language to influence a friend
• jealousy as insecurity not love
• metacognition as a buffer against emotional decisions
• health misinformation on social media and why scepticism matters
• practical sceptic habits for medical advice
• update on Ryder’s surgery and recovery

Please, please respect that gut feeling. Staying safe needs to be our primary objective. And don't forget to subscribe when we're going to do the podcast and share it with your fellow smart women and allies
