I’m launching a new series called The Women Before Me and I’m looking for women with a story to tell.
This is a generational storytelling project designed to celebrate the powerful women who shaped us.
Each episode invites a guest to bring forward a woman from their lineage biological or chosen and share who she was, what she taught, the impact she made.
These are the stories often told in kitchens, car rides, and the type of stories that rarely make it onto a microphone but leave a lasting impact.
This series bridges generations, honors passed down wisdom, and inspires the women to come.
It’s not about Not your story…
but her story.
The mother, grandmother, aunt, mentor, or soul-sister who shaped you.
The woman whose courage, lessons, or love still ECHOS in your life today.
If there’s a woman you wish the world knew,
If there’s a story you’ve carried but never shared,
I want to honor her with you.
This is your invitation to be a guest on the show
To highlight her name, Share her impact,
And inspire the next generation of women who are still becoming.
Each episode brings you one woman’s story
told by the person whose life she touched.
Not celebrities.
Not icons.
Just the real heroes: The Women
To be clear you don’t have to be a woman to nominate, sons, grandsons and men are also encouraged to share about the women who shaped you, and she can still be in your life or passed on. The purpose is to highlight that ONE woman who made the greatest impact in your life. I want to know how, what did she do that stood out, that left a lasting impact.
TO NOMINATE A WOMAN IN YOUR go to my instagram sveta_popov and send this DM “The Women”
If you do not have instagram go to the description portion of this podcast episode and scroll to the bottom until you see.
A like that says “send us a text” click on that and type in “The Women” and tell me why she deserved to be nominated, what I am looking for is
- What was she like in three words?
- What lesson from her became part of your DNA?
- What do you want the world to know about her, and why was she so special to you?
- Tell me a short story, don’t just say she was a hard worker and taught me to work hard. No show me, take me into the scene of when it happened, how did she teach you to work hard? Captivate me with her character. So that the listeners can be impacted too..
- Whats one think she did that you thought was dumb, but now you see value as an adult..
THIS IS YOUR SHOT TO SHOUT ABOUT HER FROM THE ROOFTOPS!
Roday, I want to highlight THE WOMEN who made me: My mother
One unusual thing my mom did which ended up saving my life on more than one occasion.
This is actually a chapter I wrote for my book, that may or may not make it into the final manuscript, and my agent may or may not be upset for giving you an early preview.
So bear with me as I do the unusual thing and read to you a story that took place in the former Soviet Union.
