Written By

We had Gloria on the show last season and I have invited her back to talk about her new book ‘Intentioning: Sex, Power, Pandemics, and How Women Will Take The Lead for (Everyone's) Good’.  

Gloria is a New York Times bestselling author and an absolutely amazing woman.   

We talked about racial and gender injustice, what the pandemic has meant to women, and what men can do in this fight for women’s rights.  

Gloria also explained why there’s such a need for systemic change in society, the problem with power positions, and what it’s like for women in the restaurant industry...
