ABOUT TODAY'S EPISODE:

What if the real feminist problem isn’t on the left—but on the right?

That’s the explosive claim explored in Daily Persuasion with Joshua Lisec Ep. 179: Conservatives Have a Feminism Problem ft. Megyn Kelly. In this episode, Lisec takes on the conservative feminist illusion, dissecting a now-viral Megyn Kelly tweet and exposing the hidden cost of chasing the “have it all” lie.

Lisec, a New York Times bestselling author, master ghostwriter of over 90 nonfiction books, and certified hypnotist, delivers one of his most cutting analyses yet. He doesn’t just critique second wave feminism—he calls out how 2nd wave feminism has infected conservative spaces, values, and influencers, often without anyone noticing.

The spark? A now-famous Megyn Kelly viral post proclaiming that modern women can effortlessly balance high-paying careers, luxurious apartments, and ideal romantic partnerships—all at the same time. But as Lisec powerfully argues, this vision isn’t just unrealistic; it’s a harmful fantasy rooted in 2nd wave feminism, and it's damaging women, relationships, and even persuasion psychology itself.

In a world where even Elon Musk can’t manage it all, why are women being told they should? Joshua Lisec shows how this narrative fuels anxiety, discontent, and resentment—not empowerment.

But the twist is this: Lisec isn’t anti-feminism. In fact, he draws a sharp distinction between first wave feminism—which fought for basic legal rights and protections—and the second wave feminism mindset that says women must become men to be equal. That’s a crucial part of his persuasive techniques here: reframing the debate so you don’t throw out the baby with the bathwater.

In this episode of Daily Persuasion, Lisec demonstrates exactly how conservative feminists—especially online influencers—put on the costume of “trad wife values” while outsourcing motherhood, abandoning the home, and promoting the very feminism they claim to oppose. It’s like a persuasion example in reverse: branding yourself one way while behaving another.

If you’re wondering how to persuade someone to do something—especially when their worldview is wrapped in contradiction—this episode gives a masterclass. Using real-world persuasion techniques and examples of persuasion in advertising (where lifestyle is sold more than substance), Lisec explains how influencers shape belief systems using thought-terminating clichés like “Be a good effing person.”

From viral tweets to deep ideology, this episode reveals the frames behind our cultural debates. Want to know the most effective techniques of persuasion in writing? Pay attention to the emotional buttons being pushed—by both the left and the right. And Lisec breaks down how those tactics work to keep people silent, obedient, and overcommitted to impossible goals.

Even more importantly, this episode provides the listener with a practical takeaway: Check your own goals. Are you trying to live three lives in one? Are you demanding nine mutually exclusive outcomes, just because someone on Twitter said it’s possible? That’s not self-empowerment. That’s self-delusion. And it’s time to use your persuasion psychology skills on yourself.

Lisec encourages viewers to take this insight to their personal lives, careers, and client work. Whether you're guiding a team, mentoring a colleague, or managing expectations, you’ll need the courage to say, “This isn’t realistic.” It’s a bold but loving way to serve people—one of the most authentic persuasive techniques you can use.

In sum, Daily Persuasion Ep. 179 is a wake-up call. The right isn’t immune to feminism—it’s quietly been conquered by it. And until conservative feminists start telling the truth about limits, trade-offs, and real womanhood, they’re just offering a sanitized version of the same second wave feminism that hollowed out the left.

Watch now and discover how to spot the false promises, reject thought-terminating narratives, and persuade with clarity—starting with yourself.
