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.

Welcome to Episode 14 of the Woman Uncaged podcast! In this week's episode, we address the elephant in the room: the election happening in the U.S. on Tuesday. While we intended to focus on ways to care for ourselves and one another during challenging times, we also needed a space to rant and rave about how the cages appear to be strengthening and multiplying rather than dismantling.
We dive into...
- How many of us are struggling during this time and how the heck are we supposed to get through the next few days
- Why obsessively following the news isn't helping
- How we are seeing stress and anxiety with our clients
- How the United States can be an indicator of where tides are turning world wide
- Odessa, Texas' transgender bathroom bounty law
- Why this election is deeply personal
- The importance of figuring out ways to move forward and how that requires us to stay resourced
- How having a safe space to cry or rage is vital, as is claiming our joy
- The importance of sisterhood and relationship
- How misogyny is the undercurrent of many of our conversations on reproductive rights
- How the reality of abortion differs from the stories that are told
- Why the standard idea of caring for ourselves isn't enough; we need to care for and with one another
- The importance of getting in touch with your anger
Correction:
Linda misspoke. The party in Sweden she was referring to is actually called the Sweden Democrats.
