À propos de cet audio

 My guest this time is Erin Gallagher - CEO of Ella and author of Hype Women: Breaking Free from Mean Girls, Patriarchy, and Systems Silencing You. Erin shares the inspiration behind the Hype Women movement and subsequent book. She explains how a single, intuitive post about celebrating other women sparked a global movement that reframed how women show up for one another. The conversation dives into unlearning decades of conditioning, rebuilding an “operating system” that prioritizes calm and self-care, and reconfiguring the ways women deploy their various forms of capital (human, social, financial, political) to support each other. Erin also walks through practical strategies for boundaries, managing expectations within family and work circles, and the daily actions that accumulate into meaningful cultural change. We end with practical takeaways for listeners to start hyping other women and creating a more supportive, less competitive ecosystem. Key takeaways Unlearning and rewiring your operating system takes time and deliberate effort. It’s not overnight, but small, daily shifts accumulate into lasting change.Hype is active and transactional: hype requires action. It’s about transferring capital (not just admiration) to support other women and yourself.The hype economy rests on four forms of capital:Human capital: your experience, expertise, and knowledge you can share.Social capital: your network and the introductions you can make.Political capital: your reputation and platform.Financial capital: money and investments you can deploy. Boundaries are powerful and often resisted by others who benefited from your lack of boundaries. Erin shares this quote from Emma Gannon: “The only people who get upset when you start setting boundaries are the ones who benefited from you not having them.”It’s possible to reparent and renegotiate relationships with family (especially parents) as you evolve. This can be painful but is often essential for long-term wellbeing.The “could, should, would” framework helps decision-making:Could: are you capable of doing this?Should: does it serve a greater goal or bring usefulness?Would: would you still choose this option given your values and desires? Owning your worth and choosing yourself is a form of radical self-respect that challenges intergenerational patterns of self-sacrifice.Reclaiming unpaid labor and boundaries can free substantial time and energy, enabling more impactful engagement with work and family.Gatekeeping among women is common but counterproductive; sharing knowledge and opportunities strengthens everyone.Real conversations with close family (even when difficult) can accelerate healing and transformation. If direct dialogue isn’t possible, writing or voice recordings can help you process and release trauma. Suggested actions for listeners Do a personal life audit: where are you depleted, and where do you feel energized? Reallocate time and energy away from draining activities toward high-leverage, fulfilling ones.Practice boundary-setting: start with small steps and observe who reacts; use boundaries as a compass for where your time and energy should go.Identify and deploy your own four forms of capital to support other women (and invite them to contribute to you in return).Read or listen to Hype Women to understand the practical frameworks Erin shares and apply them to your own life.
