Recently I sat down with powerhouse journalist THE AMAZING Brooke Baldwin: Emmy-nominated former CNN anchor, bestselling author, and creator of the viral Substack, Unraveling.

In this week's episode, both of our storytellers confront the real-world consequences of misinformation—and how it can spread faster than the truth.Part 1: Growing up, Modesta Abugu knows firsthand the challenges rural African farmers face. But when she discovers that misinformation is making things worse, she sets out to change the narrative. Part 2: While living in South Africa, Fiona Tudor Price witnesses how AIDS misinformation devastates an entire nation. Modesta N. Abugu recently obtained her Ph.D. in the Department of Horticultural Science at North Carolina State University, where she conducted research to identify genetic tools that can be used to improve flavor in sweetpotato, guiding the development of high-quality varieties. As a National Science Foundation interdisciplinary research fellow at the Genetic Engineering and Society Center, NCSU, she examined the scientific, policy, and public-engagement dimensions of agricultural biotechnology within integrated food, energy, and water systems to help develop sustainable and responsive solutions that bridge innovation, policy, and societal needs. Modesta is also passionate about communicating science to the public, especially on the potential of agricultural biotechnology tools in promoting food security. She has been widely involved in grassroots campaigns geared towards creating an enabling policy environment for farmers to gain access to new agricultural innovations globally. Through her awareness and advocacy efforts, she contributed to the passage of Nigeria's biosafety bill into law, and the commercialization of Bt cowpea in Nigeria. Modesta obtained her Bachelor of Science degree in biochemistry from the University of Nigeria in Nsukka, Nigeria, and an MSc in horticultural science from the University of Florida. Outside of work, she loves to hike and visit new places.Fiona Tudor Price is a seasoned producer, director, and science communicator with a unique blend of expertise in biology, media and education. With a BSc. Hons. in Biology and Film & Television Studies, Fiona began her career at TVOntario and Corus Entertainment, contributing to award-winning environmental and science documentaries. In 1999, she moved to South Africa and founded Atomic Productions, where she directed and produced impactful natural-history content for global networks including National Geographic, Discovery Channel, Animal Planet and WWF. Transforming complex scientific concepts into compelling, human-centred narratives, Fiona earned a reputation for making science accessible to broader audiences. A passionate advocate for women in media, Fiona founded Women in Film and Television South Africa (WIFT SA), providing a platform for mentorship, networking, and empowerment within the industry. She is deeply committed to educational equity, particularly for learners with dyslexia. Fiona collaborated with Decoding Dyslexia, Ontario, to initiate the transformational Ontario Human Rights Commission's Right to Read inquiry, to address systemic issues in education for learners with dyslexia. Currently, Fiona is a Digital Media and Accessibility Specialist at Humber Polytechnic, focusing on the intersection of multimedia, AI, and accessibility in education, driving innovation at the crossroads of education and technology.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

When a young Christy Harst first announced she would one day replace Barbara Walters, her father laughed. Years later, that spark of determination would carry her through the competitive world of marketing, television, and eventually, voiceover—where she discovered just how few women were given the mic. Instead of waiting for an invitation, Christy decided to build her own door—and open it for others.In this Power Lounge conversation, host Amy Vaughan, Chief Empowerment Officer of Together Digital, talks with Christy about how one moment of frustration became a movement. From realizing the imbalance in sports voiceover work to launching Building Doors VO, Christy shares how she turned awareness into advocacy and data into impact.Amy and Christy explore what it takes for women—and the men who support them—to create real pathways in industries still dominated by old systems. They discuss the power of collective action, the influence of representation, and why inclusion isn't charity—it's good business.This conversation is for anyone ready to push boundaries, elevate voices, and reimagine what opportunity sounds like.Chapters:00:00 – Introduction00:10 – "Empowering Voices in Media"06:10 – "Combining Sports Passion with Voiceover"11:39 – Breaking Barriers for Women Everywhere17:27 – "Using Privilege to Empower Change"22:09 – "Power, Privilege, and Responsibility"27:31 – Voice Bias Study Sponsorship34:15 – "Breaking Barriers with Building Doors"38:40 – Power of Collaboration45:09 – "Ask for the No"48:04 – "Evangelizing Through Data and Stories"56:14 – "Connecting Communities and Networking"59:44 – "She's Inspiring and Successful"01:01:51 – OutroQuotes:"Life doesn't just happen to you—it happens for you.

Chris Derosa (Fixing Famous People) is a tv producer who has worked with some of your favorite housewives! Natalie dives back into the Bravo-verse to pick Chris's brain about the value The Real Housewives franchise has brought to television and how they are the representation we have of older women in media. From health scares, unemployments, jail sentences, divorces, and other life hurdles, The Real Housewives has given a platform for women to talk about their life stories. The two friends also touch on how The Real Housewives may promote this idea that we always have to keep up with everyone around us and stunt for Instagram, but they also offer an example of people who are confident enough to not need to race their peers to the top. Also, are The Real Housewives conflict resolution icons? We know for a fact that they are women living loudly and boldly!Follow us at @menivetoleratedpod on Instagram! https://www.patreon.com/menivetoleratedpod on Patreon for bonus content!

Host Sarah Burke welcomes Megan Edwards and Amy Chabot, former broadcasters turned podcasters, to discuss their podcast, Bridges Burned. They explore themes of authenticity, the challenges faced by women in media, and the importance of sharing personal stories to empower others. They explore the impact of toxic work environments, and the significance of creating a safe space for storytelling. More About the Hosts: Amy Chabot spent over 15 years in radio, fueled by her love of music and storytelling. After more than a decade behind the studio mic, she traded it for a podcast microphone to co create Bridges Burned—a space where we speak openly about the challenges women endure and the strength it takes to rise from them. With honesty and heart, Amy and Megan bring real stories to light and give women a voice in moments that are often kept quiet. Megan Edwards has worked in radio and tv, is an author, a podcast host, and an outspoken advocate for women navigating the often messy realities of the broadcast industry. As the co-creator and co-host of Bridges Burned, she encourages guests to explore sexism and power dynamics in media and beyond. When she's not behind a microphone, Megan is a wedding officiant and is the founder of The Megan Method, a productivity and organization brand supporting neurodivergent humans who want structure without shame. She believes in truth-telling and burning the right bridges… and rebuilding the ones that actually deserve to exist. https://www.womeninmedia.network/show/bridges-burned/ https://www.instagram.com/bridgesburnedpod/ https://www.instagram.com/itsmeganedwards/ https://www.instagram.com/amychabot/ Connect with Sarah and Women in Media Network: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.womeninmedia.network/⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.instagram.com/wimnetwork⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.instagram.com/burketalks Learn more about your ad choices.

In this episode of Clover, I get to catch up with my longtime friend and powerhouse media executive, Tracy Kaplan, and her “hodgepodge” career that turned out to be a masterclass in building a bold, non-linear path in media, tech, and podcasts.Tracy walks us through her journey from WGBH and ABC News to CBS Interactive, SnappyTV, Twitter, TuneIn, Patreon, Tenderfoot TV, and now Courier Newsroom, all while launching her own company, Small But Mighty Media, and creating The 10 News, an award-winning news podcast for kids. Along the way, she shares how she spots the real inflection points in media (from mobile video to podcast subscriptions to now AI), builds durable partnerships with platforms like Apple and Spotify, and refuses to let imposter syndrome keep her from jumping into the next big thing.We also dig into the business side: subscription models, monetization beyond ads, what actually grows a podcast audience, and how to lead high-pressure teams through constant change without burning everyone out.In this episode, you'll learn:How to turn a “hodgepodge” career into a strategic advantage and deliberately collect the skills and experiences you're missing instead of chasing a straight line.How to spot the next wave in media and tech by staying curious, observing real people's behavior (hello, commuters watching video in Japan), and forcing yourself to experiment with new tools like AI before you feel “ready.”Practical ways to move into a new lane—before you're an expert, including how Tracy taps her network, asks smart questions, and leverages subject-matter experts to fill her own gaps.A clear breakdown of podcast monetization today—ads, Apple/Spotify subscription channels, Patreon-style membership, and even donations and fiscal sponsorship—and how to think about diversifying your revenue so you're not at the mercy of one market.How Tracy built and scaled The 10 News for kids, including the real origin story (NPR in the school pickup line + political ads on YouTube) and the tactics she used to secure high-caliber guests like Dr. Fauci.What makes a partnership last in a fickle industry, from being radically responsive and direct, to making every deal a “win-win” instead of a zero-sum transaction.Tracy's leadership philosophy in high-pressure environments—how she pushes her team to grow while still rolling up her sleeves, taking on grunt work when needed, and making sure no one is left to fail alone.Hard-won career advice for women in media and podcasting, including why allies inside and outside your company matter, how to recognize when it's time to leave a role you once loved, and why tearing other women down is a long-term losing strategy.Her big blue-sky vision for helping kids and families better understand the world—and why she dreams of a “domestic Peace Corps” style program that gets people outside their bubbles and into each other's communities.If you've ever worried that your career looks “messy” on paper, or felt behind on the latest shifts in media, this conversation will give you both a roadmap and a serious permission slip to build something beautifully non-traditional.

http://www.sherylkline.com/blogIn the latest Fearless Female Leadership interview, I had the privilege of speaking with Kim Beauvais, Executive Vice President of Human Resources and Business Operations at FOX Sports, about resilience, leadership, and the importance of owning your power.Kim credits her early upbringing—where the word “can't” wasn't allowed in her household—as a foundation for her mindset. From her time as a Division I soccer player to becoming a senior executive in the male-dominated world of sports, Kim has embodied a “can do” philosophy that continues to shape her leadership.Throughout the conversation, Kim emphasized resilience not as a fixed trait but as a practice—something strengthened over time, much like building physical endurance. She shared candid insights on handling self-doubt, failing forward, and the power of surrounding yourself with a trusted circle of peers who both challenge and uplift you.Her advice resonates not only for women in media or sports but for all leaders striving to rise with confidence and clarity. She urges women to apply for opportunities even when they don't feel 100% qualified, to embrace doubt as just a feeling—not a fact—and to remember that growth happens outside of comfort zones.Above all, Kim's story is one of joy, purpose, and resilience, reminding us that we are each the CEO of our own brand and life.10 Key Takeaways from the Interview0:01:08 – Early inspiration: Kim's mother instilled the belief that “can't” was not allowed, shaping her lifelong “can do” mindset.0:04:32 – Team mantra: Her team at FOX Sports embraces the motto #CanDo, emphasizing problem-solving over roadblocks.0:06:41 – Resilience as a practice: Resilience isn't innate—it's built by repeatedly adapting, persevering, and reframing setbacks.0:08:15 – Emotions as fuel: Rather than suppressing emotions, Kim uses them as energy to propel forward.0:11:25 – Pressure perspective: High-pressure moments signal that you're right where you want to be, much like elite athletes.0:13:34 – Self-doubt is normal: Women often hesitate unless they check every box; Kim encourages taking the leap anyway.0:17:25 – Timeboxing setbacks: Allow space to feel disappointment, but set a limit—then move forward with purpose.0:19:44 – Failing forward: Failure is not final but a chance to adjust, learn, and improve.0:21:33 – Build your circle: Surround yourself with trusted peers who give honest feedback and help straighten your crown.0:25:22 – Own your brand: Remember, you are the CEO of your own life—lead with joy, purpose, and resilience.If you're interested in being featured on the Fearless Female Leadership podcast, or you're a leader looking to gain clarity on ‘what's next', how to build more cohesive and high-performing teams, and lead with greater confidence and influence, let's have a confidential conversation.Cheering you on always!– Sheryl

My guest this week is a force in the media world, Anna Bager, President and CEO of the Out-of-Home Advertising Association of America — quite a mouthful, so we'll just say OAAA going forward.

I am honored to call her my friend, and this conversation is long overdue.

This week, I got to talk with Kaila Yu about her memoir Fetishization: A Reckoning with Yellow Fever, Feminism, and Beauty.  We dive into her experience growing up amidst yellow fever, how her self image was affected, and how she learned to love and accept herself.Fetishization: A Reckoning with Yellow Fever, Feminism, and Beauty SynopsisNo one fetishized Kaila Yu more than she fetishized herself. As a young girl, she dreamt of beauty. But none of the beautiful women on television looked like her. In the late '90s and early 2000s Asian women were often reduced to overtly sexual and submissive caricatures—the geishas of the book-turned-film Memoirs of a Geisha; the lewd twins, Fook Mi and Fook Yu, in Austin Powers in Goldmember; Papillon Soo Soo's sex worker character in the cult Vietnam War movie Full Metal Jacket; and pin-up goddess Sung-Hi Lee. Meanwhile, the "girls next door" were always white. Within that narrow framework, Kaila internalized a painful conclusion: The only way someone who looked like her could have value or be considered beautiful and desirable was to sexualize herself.Blending vulnerable stories from Yu's life with incisive cultural critique and history, Fetishized is a memoir-in-essays exploring feminism, beauty, yellow fever, and the roles pop culture and colonialism played in shaping pervasive and destructive stereotypes about Asian women and their bodies. Yu reflects on the women in media who influenced her, the legacy of U.S. occupation in shaping Western perceptions of Asian women, her own experiences in the pinup and import modeling industry, auditioning for TV and film roles that perpetuated dehumanizing stereotypes, and touring the world with her band in revealing outfits. She recounts altering her body to conform to Western beauty standards, allowing men to treat her like a sex object, and the emotional toll and trauma of losing her sense of self in the pursuit of the image she thought the world wanted.  Get Bookwild MerchCheck Out My Stories Are My Religion SubstackCheck Out Author Social Media PackagesCheck out the Bookwild Community on PatreonCheck out the Imposter Hour Podcast with Liz and GregFollow @imbookwild on InstagramOther Co-hosts On Instagram:Gare Billings @gareindeedreadsSteph Lauer @books.in.badgerlandHalley Sutton @halleysutton25Brian Watson @readingwithbrian

We discuss the impact of books like Memoirs of a Geisha and raunch culture from the 2000s, and talk about how much of the media we consume is internalized as women.

Segment 4 of Hour 2 is a rapid-fire wild ride through bizarre headlines and relatable outrage. Marc kicks it off with a jaw-dropping TSA story: a woman at Miami International tried to smuggle live turtles in her bra—yes, really. One turtle didn't survive, and PETA hasn't responded yet. The crew erupts in laughter trying to figure out the physics of turtle smuggling. Then it's onto a Phoenix Mercury WNBA player who lost her wig mid-game, prompting an actual pause in play so she could reattach it. Kim questions the practicality of wearing wigs in sports while Marc just wants to know why they stopped the game. Things turn serious when they discuss Caitlin Clark's stalker—an Iowa man sentenced to just 2.5 years for harassing her with sexually explicit messages. Kim shares her own chilling stalker story, reminding listeners that this is a widespread issue, especially for women in media. The segment rounds out with a debate on hotel amenities (yes, people are paying extra for Wi-Fi and AC), Airbnb horror stories, and a Massachusetts woman attacked by a raccoon while letting her dog out. Chaos, comedy, and a touch of crazy—all before the top of the hour.
