Shero Cafe Podcast
061 - What's the Rule?
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
Talk to us, Shero! Talk to us!
What happens when the rules seem to apply differently depending on who you are or who benefits?
In this episode, Debbie and Deborah wrestle with fairness, double standards, integrity, and the everyday question, “What’s the rule?”
From politics to relationships to real-life choices, they explore what we can control, what we can’t, and how we decide what feels right when following the rules doesn’t always seem fair.
