Engatilhadas

The BURDEN and the BONUS of Being an INDEPENDENT WOMAN (2x4)

:

In the fourth episode of the second season of Engatilhadas, Giovanna Heliodoro, Gabie Fernandes, Jana Viscardi, and Nátaly Neri welcome artist, entrepreneur, and podcaster Lela Brandão for an important (and quite triggering!) conversation about independence. Is the much-dreamed-of independence really everything it’s made out to be? Does being an independent woman bring you closer to freedom or distance you from others? Is there a “right” way to be free? Let’s unpack the paths (and missteps) of those striving to take control of their own lives. Between the loneliness of rising, the fear of seeming ungrateful for growing, and the pressure of handling everything alone, we’ll discuss the challenges and illusions behind the independence narrative. From Trad Wives to the romanticization of freedom on social media — how real is this so-called independence, after all? Or is it all just a carefully constructed illusion on the internet?
