Let's head on back to the industrial revolution this week! We're talking all about the history of women in the workplace, starting from the organizing of the first widespread workplaces for (mostly) men in the mid 1800s, and how that pushed women into isolating unpaid labor. This episode brings us up to the early 1900s, and we'll come up to present day in part 2! Our main source for this episode is the book "More Work for Mother" by Rush Schwartz Cowan.

Welcome to Made for Women! Made for Women is a podcast reimagining how we can create structures in America that support women. In a world that was created for men, by men, we explore how the workplace, parenting, and gendered institutions can be recreated with women in mind. We explore both the history of these systems, and interview badass women who are defining their own way of doing things. Made for Women is hosted by Anna Beyerle, a creative brand strategist and mentor for women building and pivoting businesses to fit into their life, not the other way around.
