    Flying High

    In this episode, we are looking at women's friendships from the 1950s through the 1980s. We had a  lovely interview with a  special guest that helped us shine a spotlight on the impact of Women's Lib in the 1960s and helped debunk some myths on women's friendships. Join us as we chat with Meg, a flight attendant in the 1960s, about female friendships- the paths they take us on, the way they hold us up, and how they help us defy expectations.

    Sit Still. Look Pretty

    We dive into the Victorian world to look at how society, as well as, the roles of women shifted during this era and what that meant for female friendships.  We see how women challenged their roles in society and how they sought to make changes, sometimes for themselves and sometimes for all women.  We discuss Florence Nightingale, Edith Wharton, girl's trips, and newspapers for women. For any listeners who may be sensitive to the topic, please be aware that we do discuss domestic abuse briefly in this episode.

    Being a Woman. Am I Doing This Right?

    Starting in the medieval period through the Renaissance and into the witch trials of early modern Europe and America we explore how women were portrayed and what that meant for their friendships. We examine how those narratives bring us into today and how they color the ways in which we see other women. In this episode we are asking to look at the what society tells us the “right way to be a woman” is and what that means for our friendships and relationships with other women, especially ones who don’t or chose not to fit those criteria.
