Imagine post-COVID-19 taking a walk, queueing up a podcast, and getting lost in the story as you get lost in the concrete jungle. Then think of a CEO pumping herself up before the big board meeting, a nurse decompressing after her overnight shift, a mom during nap-time who's trying to figure out the best tactics for potty training, and a protester fighting for equality learning how to write a new law; they all plug in their headphones and find a podcast episode just like you.

34 Million, that’s approximately how many women listen to podcasts. In the United States, podcasts allow us to tap into our collective story, the voices, creativity, and memories we don’t typically hear on a day to day basis. So the next time you press play, imagine 34 million other women enjoying the episode with you, and note that despite different circumstances you all have one thing in common.

The curated list of podcast recommendations below include voices from powerful Black Women and People Of Color. It is designed to entertain and expand horizons and is a reminder that knowing another person’s story increases our compassion and leads to inspiration. Please continue to put in work to make this a better and more inclusive society.
