Untold Journeys: Women Weaving Resilience into Revolutions
About this Episode
This is your Women's Stories podcast.
Welcome to Women’s Stories, the podcast where the untold journeys of incredible women take center stage, all united by a single thread—resilience. Today I want to spark your imagination with a surge of possibilities for themes we’ll be exploring. Because the stories of women—your stories—are not only fierce, but transformative. So, listeners, let’s dive right past the pleasantries and into the fire.
Resilience isn’t just a word. It’s the sound of Maya Angelou finding her voice again and again, transforming her pain into poetry that changed the world. It’s Amelia Earhart pushing through clouds and conventional expectations, charting a course where none existed. It’s Oprah Winfrey stepping out of a childhood shadowed by poverty and heartbreak to build not only a media empire, but a platform where other women’s truths are amplified for millions.
But it’s not just the icons. The truest power of resilience is recognizing it in the women you know, and perhaps even in yourself. It’s the young entrepreneur who refuses to let a single closed door keep her from launching that business, or the grandmother starting over after loss, channeling her grief into community leadership. These familiar stories don’t always make headlines, but they shape generations.
That’s why on Women’s Stories, our themes reflect this tapestry of female strength. We’ll hear about overcoming adversity—from surviving war, to breaking barriers in male-dominated fields like tech or medicine. We’ll talk about personal reinvention, like Bridgett Burrick Brown, who left the world of high fashion behind to build new definitions of beauty and self-worth. Or Jenna Banks, whose journey from a traumatic childhood and a suicide attempt led her to create a thriving business rooted in self-love.
Setting boundaries—one of the most radical acts of self-respect—will be a guiding theme. We’ll meet educators, artists, activists and mothers who, by defining what they will and will not accept, carve out authentic spaces for themselves and others. We’ll dig into intergenerational stories too—like the grandmothers who pursued higher education at a time when women’s dreams were often deferred, nurturing legacies of opportunity.
Other episodes will focus on rising from ashes: stories of starting over after divorce, leaving abusive relationships, recovering from illness, or making a stand as a single parent determined to rewrite the future for their family. We’ll explore how resilience means healing your inner child, learning to process pain, and building something new from brokenness, just as Nina Sossamon-Pogue did after her own struggles with PTSD.
Women's Stories will take you through revolutions both private and public: women challenging societal norms, shattering expectations, and using their setbacks as fuel for change.
