Summary
In this episode, I sit down with the women behind News Girls Podcast—two bold voices turning politics into something stylish, smart, and empowering. We talk about what it means to live through your “Sex and the City” era in New York City, how to lead with both beauty and brains, and why intelligence is the new it-girl energy. From finding your voice and owning your worth to challenging cultural norms and setting boundaries, this conversation is for the girl who wants to be well-dressed, well-read, and unapologetically herself. It’s time to make politics pretty—and powerful.
Welcoming Wren Woodson & Mabel Kabani as guests on today's episode. As former 60 Minutes journalists, they host the NEWSGIRLS podcast, where they dive deep into the big political headlines and hot entertainment buzz, while making every story relatable to their Gen Z and Millennial audience.
I had such a great time talking to these two, and I hope you guys loved our conversation. Thank you for the support, make sure to subscribe!
