The Zingg

Apr 12 2023 • 27 mins

In this episode of The Zingg, Eglantina discusses the concept of the "superwoman" archetype, exploring how it may lead to negative consequences such as burnout, anxiety, and stress. Eglantina shares personal experiences and insights from two champions of female empowerment, Cindy Parlow Cone and Marissa Solis, on why women should embrace vulnerability and not be afraid to ask for help. The discussion delves into the potential harmful effects of societal expectations that women should be invincible and how this can result in feelings of isolation and inadequacy. Eglantina also offers suggestions on how women can overcome the superwoman stigma by seeking support, acknowledging their limitations, setting boundaries, and embracing imperfections.
