What IS WAM?
Throughout history, women have been told their feelings are too much. We're overemotional, we're hysterical; we're crazy.
So we repress. We stuff it all down. And our bodies take the hit.
This is an internal battle, fuelled by societal pressures and systemic injustices. But we rarely talk about it, and that silence is leaving us sick and diminished. From this place of weakness, we're unable to achieve our ambitions and life goals.
WELCOME
To the space where we break that silence.
Welcome to the space where we rewrite history, and show women that their feelings are their superpower.
WAM is on a mission to help women recognize, articulate and communicate the best toolkit they have: their emotions.
HOW DID WAM BEGIN?
WAM is the brainchild of Kleinian psychotherapist
After years of working with women in NHS and private practice, Jennifer wanted to find a way of helping those who might not be able to access therapy.
WAM began as an on-the-ground movement of women, meeting to share the struggle...
THE WAMWAY
Built on the power of psychoanalysis, distilled into everyday language and simple techniques, the meetings went global. By exploring what's happening in our lives, and fearlessly addressing internalised barriers, we realise that
- together -
change is possible.
THE WAM PODCAST
From grassroots beginnings, a podcast grew!
Each week, the award-winning
invites a brilliant guest to explore her feelings, from the radical launchpad of anger.
From Jameela Jamil and
Sophie Ellis-Bextor to Elif Shafak and Philippa Perry, we discover how useful is our rage as a source of fuel and change, and what a revolutionary gateway it can be to releasing our potential.
