What is the main topic discussed in this episode?
You fell in love with your boss. Yours just happened to be the President of the United States and the most powerful man in the world. And married. And married. I think I need to own that. That became one of the most public vilifications and collective public shamings of just about any woman in our history. Yeah. I mean the scale, the scale of the press. You instantly became a household name. I remember waking up and i lived in the watergate apartment complex newspapers down the entire hallway and seeing my name there for something that was awful and destructive to to so many people personally watching myself be torn apart and I already had self-esteem issues. Like I wouldn't have been in this situation if I didn't have self-esteem issues.
I think that it was also reflective of women, how we feel about women, you know, the same way that there were women tied to a post and burned at a stake and called a witch.
How can you reclaim your power and story?
And so those things have always been in our collective history. You know, it was not a physical burning, but a public burning, but an emotional burning. It wasn't called the Clinton scandal. It was called the Lewinsky scandal. It's your name everywhere. And my family's name. Your family's name. You know, it's not even just me, but everybody who had my last name suffered. When someone has gone through so much, you've made it through to the point where you're helping others make it through. and that's what's so powerful and that's what I'm most excited about today. You're in 40 rap songs or whatever the number is up to now.
Why is it never too late to reclaim your life?
Over 125. 125 rap songs. Don't get residuals. Oh my gosh. You're here. You have the power to reclaim your story, to reclaim the narrative of who you truly are and to reclaim your life. And today we are talking about reclaiming with my guest and friend, Monica Lewinsky. If you've ever felt like your past, maybe a past mistake, a bad decision, an embarrassing failure, or something painful that's happened to you in your past is holding you back or defining who you are, maybe that past version of yourself that others knew you for has been lingering over you and keeping you stuck from stepping into the next most beautiful, powerful version of yourself. Today's episode is for you. And I am so excited for this.
We can learn so much from each other's stories. And when we share powerful conversations like the one we're having today together, it can help us feel less alone and more enough in this one miraculous life. There were a number of moments where it just felt unbearable. I just did not think I could take another breath. The difficulty that I experienced in those first few years in some ways paled in comparison to what happened later when I really felt confronted with no future. I had a real, I was naive in thinking that I still sort of had this naive side to me that was like oh well when people get to know me they get to really know me then they'll like me they'll understand and and that's not at all what happened one aspect of a collective story is that the collective has to be ready too right and um and you're up against
this just machine. Right. She called me and she was like, I had this, you know, like realization that because you're in the collective consciousness, you know, that when you shift your consciousness, you're shifting the consciousness of everybody whose mind you have been in. Shame, guilt, publicly, public humiliation. You know, it's an amazing trifecta, Jamie. What does that healing look like and what's worked?
What does it mean to be worthy and stronger than shame?
It was really when I started doing the energetic work and the resonance work, that started to shift everything. really and you've shared you voted for her yes i did yes i did monica lewinsky is the host of the wildly successful podcast called reclaiming so make sure you check that out right away it's so good she's also a producer social and anti-bullying activist global public speaker and a contributing editor to vanity fair Her focus is on storytelling that moves the conversation forward around shame, reclaiming identities, and justice for women.
