About this episode

Rachel and Ash discuss the controversial concept of polarity and its implications in gender dynamics.

Rachel and Ash discuss an idea that's all the rage among coaches and influencer types in Austin and elsewhere: polarity. Spoiler alert: it's essentially a New Age-y version of Men Are From Mars, Women Are From Venus, and its inventor has some of the worst ideas we've ever heard about how to respond to an angry woman (….tickle her????).
