If you’ve thought about quitting dating, swearing off men altogether, or joining the 4B movement (don’t worry, we define it if you’re not familiar), this episode is for you. We are joined by entrepreneur/marketing expert and recent viral sensation for the no-men movement, Ashli Pollard, to discuss why she decided to stop dating two years ago and how her life has changed since. We talk about living life outside of the male gaze, talking to your friends and family about this choice, sex and pleasure, what people get wrong about the movement, how she sees her future (including motherhood), and how both men and women can help support women better. Before Ashli joins us, we’re sharing the juiciest plane passenger situation we’ve encountered, and how we ended up on contractor-Tok. Enjoy!

Follow Ashli on Tiktok @ashli_p, listen to her podcast Unfiltered Entrepreneur, and read her substack Cocky.
