Olivia Rodrigo Therapy: Anger in Women & How to Process It
• 45 minObsessed with Olivia's new album too? Same! More than just the music, this week I talk about how this album is a powerful outlet for women to deal with their anger. I discuss how Olivia managed to escape the Disney bad girl reputation and how she is giving herself and as a result, all of us, permission to feel our feelings, including anger, rage, embarrassment, jealousy and more! I talk at length about the song, "All American B*tch" and how it is an overarching theme of the album, what my favorite lines are and how it perfectly captures the double bind that women are placed in. I explore how women's anger is unique, how women (especially women of color) are not given space to feel angry and how we may end up suppressing it and harming ourselves. I also discuss the data of how women are angrier on average these days than men and why that is. Finally, I spend the last ten minutes of the episode answering listening questions about anger, how to deal with it in a healthy way, why you don't need to force yourself to be angry and the predisposition of anger.
