Beautiful and Interesting

This podcast is exactly what I was looking for. Growing up, I didn’t connect very strongly to my feminine self or what made me a woman. Now that I’m older, I’ve been discovering ways to reconnect to my female self and just come to appreciate and understand it more. And this podcast is exactly in the vein of what I was hoping for. It’s beautifully executed and contains interesting insights into things about women and women’s history I never knew. I especially loved the episode where her mother and grandmother were guest speakers, their comments as to their own journeys and the difference in time periods over their life influences was incredibly interesting to hear about. Hope this continues to grow as I’ve loved it so far and look forward to each episode. Highly recommend!
