In this episode of justUS, we dive into a difficult but urgent conversation: normalizing domestic violence and sexual abuse in today's political climate and why it feels like no one is talking about it. From the shadow of Jeffrey Epstein to the resurgence of rigid gender roles like the "trad wife" movement, we unpack how power, politics, and culture are intersecting in ways that may be normalizing abuse. What happens when harmful behavior is minimized, excused, or even protected? And who pays the price? If this topic resonates with you, share your thoughts in the comments. Let's talk about it.

GLP-1s are everywhere right now — and so is the conversation about them. But the discourse keeps missing nuance. You either believe in bodily autonomy OR you're complicit in toxic diet culture. What if the real work is learning how to sit in the tension? This conversation doesn't exist in a vacuum.  We're in a political moment where bodily autonomy is already under attack — and that includes our bodies, our size, and how we're allowed to exist in them. There's a growing cultural shift, particularly on the right, that openly privileges thinness, reinforces patriarchal ideals, and rewards women for taking up less space. At the same time, we're watching celebrities and public figures navigate (and often reinforce) these pressures in real time. So where does that leave us? How do we make personal choices about our bodies without ignoring the systems shaping those choices? How do we resist a culture that still centers the male gaze and equates worth with appearance? What would it look like to build lives that exist beyond how we look?   Follow Tashira @PoliticsFashion Follow Margo https://www.instagram.com/margo.lindauer/

After three years of honest, meaningful, and sometimes hard conversations, we are closing this chapter of justUS Podcast. In this first episode of this final season, we sit down together to reflect on the journey — what we built, what we learned, and why we're choosing to end with intention rather than just fade out. We talk about the bittersweet reality of endings, and why we believe that closing one door doesn't diminish everything that came before it. Endings can be beautiful. And this one is ours. To every single person who listened, shared, reached out, or simply let our voices keep you company — thank you. You were never just an audience. You were always part of the conversation. It has been an honor. Let's keep talking and connecting 💛 Follow Tashira  @PoliticsFashion  Follow Margo https://www.instagram.com/margo.lindauer/ FOLLOW justUS: Instagram → justus_pod  TikTok →  justUS Podcast Substack→ Follow Us  Watch justUS on YouTube → Subscribe
