Badass Women of History

For this week's Badass Women of History, Kendra and Gillian have been practicing their bear dancing moves and mosaic making skills as they examine the remarkable and influential life of Empress Theodora - co-ruler of the Byzantine Empire, and explore what she can teach us about creating our best lives and not letting social constraints get in our way. #byzantines #byzantineempire #justinian #bwoh

In today’s show, Kendra and Gillian take a deep, dark look into the life of 17th-century Italian Baroque artist, Artemisia Gentileschi. And, how the trauma that informed her art and life, can help assault survivors today, regain a sense of self and control. This episode of Badass Women of History discusses adult themes that may be triggering. Listener discretion is advised. #womenofhistory #ArtemisiaGentileschi

In this episode, Gillian and Kendra briefly resurface from the safe haven of their Covid-free bunkers, to discuss how Margaret Beaufort, during the Wars of the Roses, used her Badass motherly instincts to become a political mastermind, overthrow a tyrant, and establish England’s best-known royal dynasty - all while navigating one of the most tumultuous periods in British history.

Politics, murder, race and religion, nothing is off the table in this first episode from Badass Women of History, as Kendra and Gillian talk all-things Judith and how this Badass woman from the Bible reminds us that, while thoughts and prayers are great, sometimes you need to take matters into your own hands, get all gussied up, and cut some dude’s head off, with a little help from your ride-or-die friend. #jackedlikejudith #bookofjudith #womenofhistory

What do Catherine the Great, Cleopatra, and Elizabeth I have in common? They were all badass. However, they aren’t the only women throughout history who have broken the mold, dared to be different, and engaged in some generally kick-ass behavior. Each week, long-time friends Gillian and Kendra, will be joined by special guests as they take a deeper look at and feature one of many overlooked, sidelined, and less than famous Badass Women in History and ask, what would they do in times like these? #womenofhistory
