No One Loves An Angry Woman | Gemma Hartley | Substack

Let’s talk about why we’re angry.

Welcome to No One Loves An Angry Woman, a place where I am untangling the cultural conditioning that makes me furious. Here you’ll find glimpses into my life as my husband and I continue to rebalance the mental load, talks with feminist authors of all strokes, and the philosophical things I’m pondering while writing my second book (titled, you guessed it, No One Loves An Angry Woman).

I’m Gemma Hartley, a longtime freelance writer, writing coach, yoga instructor and most notably author of Fed Up: Emotional Labor, Women, and the Way Forward. I have spoken on the topic of the mental load and emotional labor around the world, from corporate conferences to festivals at the Sydney Opera House. My hope is to create work that encourages a more equitable world in which invisible labor is valued and supported by both personal partners and public policy alike.
