  • Summary

  • To The Woman is Audible UK's flagship podcast series for International Women's Day.

    Celebrated as 'utterly gripping, brave, honest' (Sunday Times), 'poignant' (Financial Times), 'a heart-warming display of sisterhood' (ELLE) and 'inspirational' (Grazia), season two is hosted by June Sarpong OBE - a former To The Woman (Season 1) contributor and the BBC's first Director of Creative Diversity.

    In this series, June brings together a group of exceptional women from both sides of the Atlantic to celebrate inspirational women from around the world. Each episode begins with a prompt: 'To the woman' followed by five themes - 'To the woman that shaped me,' 'To the woman that loved me,' 'To the woman that heard me,' 'To the woman that saved me,' and 'To the women that surround me.' What begins as a simple prompt becomes a larger narrative of love, friendship and a celebration of women.

    Contributors for To The Woman (Season 2) include: Rose McGowan, Jess Philips, Ruth Davidson, Munroe Bergdorf, Bonnie Greer, Gina Martin, Anita Sarkeesian, Jada Sezer, Rosie Jones, Helen Lederer, Laura Bates, Sinéad Burke, Miranda Kane, Nora Monsecour, Jen Agg, Zing Tsjeng, Sabrina Mafouz, Sophie Scott, Deborah Coughlin and Alix Fox.

    This is an Audible Original Podcast. Free for members. You can download all 5 episodes to your Library now.
