Summary

Happy Women’s History Month! This week we’re discussing the wonderful women of STEAM (yes, we include the arts here) that have had their work stolen, co-opted, or overlooked by men and the dominant culture. Thank you to all the women in academia, research, creative fields, business, politics, etc. who persist, push back, and put men in check - I absolutely cannot wait to read your stories and studies, I know they’ll be *chefs kiss.* I know I mispronounced a lot in this episode, as always feel free to shoot me a DM or comment with correct pronunciation, I really do appreciate the help. Also yes, I meant to say “retrograde menstruation” not “reverse menstruation” - the world simply escaped me.
