  • Thoroughly enjoyed this podcast

    I loved hearing how women in different parts of the world are being empowered to have choice and a voice! I hope there’s another season that will seek to improve and even speak on women in America. I’d like to see all women praised and acknowledged whether you’re a woman who wants to work or not as all are heroes. Thanks for the podcast! My first review written ever.

  • A Must-Listen To Podcast for Women's Rights

    Here in the USA we often take for granted our liberties. It can feel as if we live in a bubble. This podcast sheds light on the plight of our sisters in other parts of the world. This podcast is informative, well-researched, and a delight to listen to. I highly recommend. Five stars!
