If you’ve been following me on Instagram, you know how disturbed I am by Brett Kavanaugh’s nomination, and the aftermath of multiple sexual misconduct allegations against him.

Look, I’ll be honest, I was never going to like him because we fundamentally do not agree on a woman’s right to choose. Everyone’s entitled to their own opinion, so I can’t be *too* upset about that.

Yes, I don’t agree, and if even if he doesn’t support choice, why does he feel like he can dictate what I can or can’t do?

Despite that, it’s forgivable. Anti-choice is still a hallmark of the Republican party and he was nominated and supported by Republicans.

What is unforgivable, what is appalling is the GOP reaction to allegations on his sexual misconduct. Looking the other way, using the “boys will be boys” excuse, and rushing his vote through is deplorable.

Given that, I couldn’t think of a better episode to bring out from the archives than my chat with Belinda.

The personal is political, and the political is personal. This Supreme Court nomination will have vast effects on US women, and I want to remind you that if you’re pissed like I am you have a voice, and I encourage you to use it.

The work I do in my business is so much more than mastering the Tinder game or getting a date.

It’s really about female empowerment, and this is what female empowerment looks like on the macroscale outside of your personal dating experience.
