Episode 20: No More Girl-on-Girl Crime: Rewriting the Script for the Next Generation
Episode Description:You’ve probably heard the phrase from Kelly Ripa, “Don’t commit crimes against other women”—and today, we’re unpacking exactly what that means.It starts young. One day you’re telling your friend she’s “prettier” than the girl who got the boy, thinking you’re being loyal… but underneath, we’re taught to compete, to compare, and to quietly tear each other down. As adults, it shows up everywhere: the subtle judgment, the gossip masked as concern, the moments where someone else’s win feels like our loss.In this episode, we’re breaking down: ✨ Where this mindset starts—and how culture fuels it ✨ The sneaky ways it follows us into adulthood (especially on social media) ✨ Real tools to rewrite the narrative, for ourselves and our daughtersWe’ll share stories, unpack our own experiences, and talk about what it means to raise the next generation differently—with less comparison, more collaboration, and space for every woman to shine.This one’s for anyone who’s ready to celebrate other women—and stop the quiet competition, once and for all.💡 Episode Highlights: • How “girl-on-girl crime” starts young—and why it sticks • The cultural pressure to believe there’s only room for one successful woman • Backhanded compliments, gossip, quiet judgment: how we keep the cycle going • Real ways to shift your language, build others up, and model better for our girls • The link between self-worth and how we treat other women🎯 Takeaway Challenge: Pick one woman this week—compliment her, recommend her, repost her, send the text. Let’s normalize support, not silent comparison.🎀 PINK SPOTLIGHT ROUND UP: We thought it only made sense to keep this week’s Pink Spotlights on theme—there’s room for everyone to shine.• Kristina’s Pick: The Shop.My app. Christina convinced her to finally start using it to share her outfits and favorite finds—and now she’s hooked.
