    True Grit: The Women Who Walked In: Coeducation and the Courage to Belong: With Author Gail Burrell Gerry

    03-03-2026 | 46 Min.
    The University of Virginia did not accept women until coeducation was introduced in 1974. This institutional transformation was made possible through the grit of its first class of women. Kate Byrne sits down with one of them, author Gail Burrell Gerry, who shares the inspiring story behind this historic milestone for UVA and the education systems as a whole. Gail talks about what it takes to challenge the status quo, the power of speaking up, and being comfortable with discomfort – even things that are considered taboo by most people. She also explains why there is no single path to achieving success in your journey and why you do not have to feel guilty about your accomplishments, especially women bombarded with constant pressure.

    Rewrite Your Money Story: Financial Planning + Feminine Power With The Biz Hippie; Scarlett Stanhope

    24-02-2026 | 37 Min.
    Money isn’t just math. It’s memory.

    In this conversation, I’m joined by Scarlett Stanhope – also known as The Biz Hippie – for a refreshingly honest exploration of money, power, and the stories so many women have quietly inherited about both.

    Scarlett’s work lives at the intersection of financial planning and intuition, helping women move beyond either/or thinking and into a relationship with money that’s both practical and expansive. Because for many women, money isn’t just about budgets or bank accounts. It’s about safety. Permission. Nervous systems. And the deeply embedded belief that wanting wealth somehow conflicts with being values-driven, ethical, or spiritually grounded.

    Together, we unpack the most common money misconceptions women carry, how to tell the difference between a mindset block and a systems problem, and what it really takes to feel safe holding more not just earning more. We talk about money wounds, abundance that shows up on a spreadsheet (not just a vision board), and what a more feminine, collaborative, sustainable financial system could actually look like in practice.

    This is a conversation for anyone who’s ever felt too juju for finance or too practical for the spiritual world and suspected there might be a more integrated way. Thoughtful, grounded, and deeply human, this episode is about rewriting your money story with clarity, confidence, and zero apology.

    I’m so glad you’re here for it.

    The Power Of The Period: Healthcare Access And Ending Shame With EmpowerHer Founder Avery Bruen And VP Brooke Blankenship

    10-02-2026 | 43 Min.
    We often talk about the glass ceiling in business, but what if the true barrier to a woman’s full potential starts much lower—at the most basic level of her health and healthcare access? Imagine trying to lead a meeting, ace an exam, or secure funding when you can’t access essential menstrual products. This is the reality of “period poverty,” a silent struggle that affects millions and is rooted in shame and lack of access.

    In this powerful conversation, we dive deep with Avery Bruen and Brooke Blankenship, the dynamic young founders of EmpowerHer. They started their mission in high school, tackling period poverty head-on by providing quality products and crucial education to underserved communities. Discover why access to period products is fundamentally a leadership and equity issue, not just a side note. Avery and Brooke share their journey—from neighborhood drives to a thriving organization serving over 11,000 students—and reveal the business savvy, resilience, and intergenerational wisdom required to build a mission-driven movement from the ground up.

    If you’ve ever wondered how small, practical interventions can unlock enormous change and shatter assumptions, don’t miss this episode. Their story is a powerful metaphor for overcoming any professional obstacle.
