In today’s special edition of Hacking the Patriarchy, we’re doing something a lottabit different, flipping the script and letting our dear friend , interview our host, , about her wild journey from corporate marketing to 5x startup founder and podcaster.

Fair warning: This conversation is MESSY in the best possible way. They go completely off the rails and somehow end up talking about ✨🍄 (because apparently that’s where our brains go when they’re troubleshooting tech and also having a stream of consciousness).

Plus, because we want you to get the REAL real of what podcasting is actually like, we left 1 of our 4 major tech challenges and the conversation that still took place as Raven worked to troubleshoot it in.

This isn’t your polished, corporate-approved conversation. This is two friends diving deep into the messy, beautiful reality of:

→ From marketing to five businesses
→ Why intuition is a radical business strategy
→ Owning my power instead of fitting in
→ How systems crush men, too
→ Raven’s complicated relationship with feminism and embracing the label
→ Challenging patriarchal systems daily
→ Building businesses while staying true to values

They talk about resilience, risk-taking, diversity in conversations, and why sometimes the best business decisions feel like the scariest ones.

B. asks the questions Raven never gets asked, and she gives answers she’s never given publicly.

How has your leadership changed since the pandemic? What boundaries are you working to protect?
