Woman Uncaged
In these unfiltered, unedited conversations, Linda Katz and Laura Gates-Lupton get real about what it means to live full, joyous, and meaningful lives in a culture that continues to silence, shrink, and sideline women.
Laura and Linda call out the ways patriarchy disguises systemic problems as personal failings, and they refuse to let women carry that lie alone. They question, illuminate, and lay bare the forces that shape women’s lives, while lifting up the possibility of something different.
With candor, humor, and plenty of personal stories, they invite women to stop hating themselves, reclaim their power, and opt out of the narratives that were never theirs to begin with.

Fan Mail
Oh man, I started this Mid-life episode before a meeting, and I got so into it and had to wipe all my tears before getting on a call. Deep respect to Laura for sharing her story, so much of what you said really resonated (like that wanting to jump into a box - I feel that) and giving yourself the space to claim. The ring ritual (and the dreams leading up to it) was deeply moving, and how you allowed yourself the gift of doing it at the right time, with the right support (Linda, obv) in such a ceremonial and meaningful way. Very powerful.
