Welcome to episode 19 of the Woman Uncaged podcast! In this week's episode, we use a topic that has been popping up in several of Laura's coaching sessions recently as a jumping off point to talk about money, relationships, reenvisioning work, and more. 

We cover: 

- Women in heterosexual marriages where the husband works a full-time job that he feels trapped in and the response is to want his wife to get a job and jump in the trap too

- Different work configurations Laura and Linda have experienced in their relationships, including Sophie's wisdom regarding the split between money and meaning

- What cultural drivers and gender biases could be contributing to husbands' desire for their wives to get back to a traditional "job" (when the finances don't require it)

- How the idea that "more is always better" keeps us trapped and adhering to the status quo

- How the fear of the unknown plays a part in our lives and relationships and how that relates to identity

- The issues around our current model of putting off joy till retirement aka when the work is done

- Redefining the whole darn idea of work and opting out of the matrix!

As always, we'd love it if you would share your thoughts about this episode with us. You can email us at  womanuncagedpodcast@gmail.com. 

We love hearing from you!
