Welcome to the third episode of Machiavelli for Women. In this series, I decode The Prince, one of the most controversial texts in history, to help women flip the patriarchy on its head. Most of us need to get better at reading between the lines. On top of that, too many of us don't see reality for what it is, because we're clouded by projection, fairness, and reciprocity. In this episode, I'll walk us through a 4-step funnel inspired by Machiavelli's The Prince and Discourses on Livy that'll help us make sense of people's behaviour and buffoonery. xoxoxo Neekolo Timestamps: 0:00 Intro 3:14 The 4-step funnel 4:41 1- Environment 15:07 2- Ambition 24:43 3- Perception 32:15 4- Self-concept If you get ads at the beginning of this episode, add ~3 minutes to the timestamps Episodes mentioned: Machiavelli for Women Ep. 1: Do NOTHING for men (listen on Spotify or Apple Podcasts)Patriarchy Hack #35: Never do anything with the expectation of gratitude (listen on Spotify or Apple Podcasts)The dark side of corporate (that your boss hides from you) (listen on Spotify or Apple Podcasts) Music credit © Chœur des Marais, Villefranche sur Saône, Fr __________ 🎙️ About the podcast: The patriarchy is starting to crumble, but sadly it probably won't be fully dismantled in our lifetime.

In this episode, we're going to look at brainwashing (one of the top 3 fave tool of the patriarchy's PR team).

Corporate work feels meaningless because it deprives us of consciousness, monopolizes our time, divorces us from our labour, and gives us no purpose.
