Here at Johanna Elizabeth, everything we do is about empowering women like you.
As self-love promoters, and as specialists in self-love photography for women, we want you to feel seen and to be living a body-confident life.
Our service is all about female empowerment through artistic portraits, and we aim to help you feel happy in your skin. We know that this feeling is literally life-changing and that it opens the doors to so many positive experiences and opportunities.
Podcasts putting women in the spotlight
Thankfully, we’re not alone in our mission.
The female empowerment movement has gained a lot of traction in recent years. We’re thrilled that now, more than ever before, women are claiming their space in the world and getting both seen and heard.
Undoubtedly, technology has played a part. Now that podcasting is so accessible, there’s been an uplift in the number of female empowerment podcasts that exist, particularly here in the UK. These are championing women’s interests and putting women in the spotlight.
Empowering podcasts for women, by women
If, like us, you believe that female empowerment is important then perhaps this list of podcasts we’ve compiled might be useful to you. Take a listen to some of these and enjoy!
These are particularly relevant podcasts for women over 40, and they’re all podcasts for women by women.
By the way, some exciting news for you….
We’ll soon be adding to this list of female empowerment podcasts – we’re working on our own which will be launching very soon (watch this space)!
We have so much to say on this topic, so we figured that an empowering podcast for women would be a natural extension of our brand. Stay tuned for more on this in the coming weeks!!!
Members of our ‘Empowered and Uncensored’ membership on Patreon will even be able to get exclusive access to extended podcast episodes and uncut interviews, among many other benefits including uncensored photo access and behind-the-scenes content.
Support us on Patreon here. It’s well worth the investment of just £12 per month, even if we do say so ourselves!
