Why Free Women Make People Uncomfortable | Jaxx Of All Trades on Redefining Womanhood What does it really mean to become a free woman?
This week on For Mannerless Women, Adelle sits down with South African social, political and current affairs commentator Jaxx Of All Trades for a thought-provoking conversation on identity, confidence, beauty standards, freedom and choosing a life beyond society's expectations. Together, they unpack the pressure African women face to fit into narrow definitions of femininity, marriage and success, why turning 30 can feel surprisingly liberating, and the deep inner work required to build a life that genuinely belongs to you. This conversation is an invitation to stop performing womanhood and start defining it for yourself.
