Welcome to the first episode of Machiavelli vs Patriarchy. In this series, I decode The Prince, one of the most controversial texts in history, to help women flip the patriarchy on its head.
In this episode, I discuss the Machiavellian strategy of why we should never build up another person and apply it to relationship dynamics with men.

🎙️ About the podcast: The patriarchy is starting to crumble, but sadly it probably won't be fully dismantled in our lifetime. In this podcast, I help women exploit the system's loopholes while finding the hidden ways the patriarchy conditions us to leak our power. Because guess what? Power isn't given, it's either taken or created. And it's time to take back the power the patriarchy stole from us.
