    How Do We Manage The Manosphere?

    According to UN statistics a third of women across the world experience sexual or physical violence at least once in their life. The rates of violence against women and girls are astonishing; in the UK a woman is killed by a man once every three days. So how do we tackle this? Jackson Katz is an educator and anti-sexism activist. He has spent his career talking to men in positions of influence - whether that’s managers, sports coaches, fathers or uncles - about how they can use their power to help end misogynist views. In his most recent book, ‘Every Man’, he reframes violence against women as a men’s issue rather than a women’s, and talks about how shifting the focus changes the way we challenge the problem. In this episode Jackson talks to Stephanie about the current climate of misogyny in the online world, and how we equip men with the tools to challenge the influence that it's having on future generations of boys.

But one day she woke up to find her husband unresponsive in bed, by the time he got to the hospital, he had sadly passed away. Sue suddenly found herself on a new path, juggling motherhood and work while navigating her own grief and her childrens’. Following up from our episode on the neuroscience behind grief, in this episode we delve into what that looks like in practice. Stephanie speaks to Sue about how the experience of losing her husband changed her life in all sorts of unexpected ways, the hope she could take from that, the surprising places she found solace and understanding, and how we manage being a parent of grieving children.

    Grief is something we will all experience in some shape or form in our lives, not just through the death of loved ones but also in the breakdown of relationships, the loss of jobs and for the lives we thought we might lead that have taken a different path. When we grieve our brain is battling a lot of conflicting information, and on this episode of How Do We Manage we invite in Dr Mary-Frances O’Connor - a psychologist who has written two books on how grief affects both our brains and our bodies - to tell us how understanding the science behind the grieving process can help us deal with the complex and difficult feelings around loss.
