Angry Women

Minna Canth: Feminist, Playwright, Absolute Force of Nature

She had seven children, ran a shop, and still found time to change Finnish law. In this episode of Angry Women in History, Jessi and Jose dig into the life of Minna Canth: Finland's first feminist writer, playwright, and professional thorn in the side of the establishment. They talk about how one play sparked a national debate and actually changed legislation, why she was called "controversial" for saying things that were simply true, and what a 19th century argument about prostitution has to do with Sigmund Freud. Plus: the industrial revolution, deepfake porn, and why Minna Canth always looks slightly annoyed in photos. Honestly, same.

Why Fixing Your CV Won't Fix the System | ft. Erica Terranova

You did everything right. Updated the CV, worked on your mindset, kept applying. And still nothing. In this episode, Jessi sits down with Erica Terranova, Head of Growth at Moomin Characters and self-proclaimed daughter of rage, to talk about what immigrants (especially women) are really up against when looking for work in Finland. They talk about systemic racism in hiring, why female immigrants are being pushed into entrepreneurship, and why no amount of mindset shifts or CV tweaks can fix a structurally unfair system. Plus: marketing girlies, coding history, and why female anger might be the most underrated career tool you have. Enjoyed this episode?
