Putting Women In Their Place - the podcast MEGAN PARK

Morgan Wider is a stylist, public speaker, and author of the book The Worthy Wardrobe: Your Guide to Style, Shopping, and Soul. (Makes a great gift!) Morgan's approach to style is so much more than clothing. She helps women discover who they are and then empowers them to show up for themselves and their higher purpose.

After studying economics at Georgetown University, Morgan spent 10 years working at the corporate offices of some of the world’s biggest retail brands: The Gap, Banana Republic, Old Navy, and Carters, Inc. She started Wider Style to help people transform themselves and SEE themselves-- all of themselves with their inherent radiance and beauty. Being well put together doesn’t detract from intelligence or professional accomplishments, but in fact enhances them. Morgan sees the beauty in everyone and every body. She'll help you embrace your style vision in mind, body and spirit.

Morgan works with people and companies around the world. If you would like to learn more about her services, visit her website.

Layla Love recognizes art’s transformative power and necessary impact on humanity. She formed Rise of the Butterfly to heed the call and raise the alarm. She has been immersed in humanitarian work for over a decade. Layla has personally emancipated women in conflict zones from prostitution, slavery, and bondage herself—and has been thrown into foreign prisons in the process. These experiences have informed her knowledge and fueled her passion to abolish trafficking and improve the human condition.

Layla’s work includes She of God, Activation, and other books and collections. Her art has been exhibited at Paris Photo Expo, Art Basel Miami, AiPAD in New York, and other showcases and in solo shows. Her work is in the permanent collections of The Obama White House, The Alex Grey Foundation, and The Women’s Museum in Dallas, and her photographs appear in 30 Tiffany & Co. stores around the world as well as numerous galleries and private collections.

Are you looking for community in these tumultuous times? 

Tune in and be inspired.

Iris Roley was out to save Black Lives 20 years before #BlackLivesMatter was a thing. 

In Cincinnati, OH, her hometown, Iris organized a group of concerned citizens called The Black United Front. It quickly escalated into a movement  when several unarmed black men were killed by police officers in the early 2000's. With the help of civil rights attorneys, they created a legally-binding contract between the city, its police force and the citizens. The contract is one-of-a-kind and still being utilized to this day. 

Iris is a small business owner, wife, mother, grandmother, and godmother of a movement. 

Listen, and be inspired.
