About this episode
This week I thought it would be interesting to do a deep dive into the ‘Cool Girl’ archetype because it’s so prevalent in our culture. Most of us can relate to either being her, knowing her, or dating her.Listen in to learn about what drives the cool girl, how she relates to men, where her biggest pain point is, why the ‘nice guy’ is her opposite-sex mirror, and much more.The first part of the video is all about the cool girl and her motives, while the second part of the video is an analysis of two films that help us paint the picture of distinction between the ‘cool girl’ and the ‘feminine woman.’ (My Best Friend's Wedding and The Fighter).TIMESTAMPS:00:00 — Intro00:38 — The cool girl always loses 02:24 — The gold in the shadow 04:50 — She always seeks outside herself 07:17 — The big mistake she makes 09:45 — Men pick up on the low self esteem 12:11 — Jungian frameworks 14:38 — My Best Friend’s Wedding Analysis 17:04 — Cool Girl Versus Feminine Woman 19:30 — Feminine Vulnerability is strength
