About this listen

She The People is a podcast for bold, curious women who ask big questions and embrace complexity. Hosted by two longtime friends—one a second-generation American with a PhD in public health, the other a U.S. Air Force veteran finishing her doctorate—we met in the Peace Corps and bring lived experience and global perspective. From politics to public health, spirituality to sex, burnout to resistance—we explore what it means to build a more honest world.Mindy Leake Social Sciences

We talk emotional support tabs, misinformation, and why local action still matters—plus public health, peach season, and the price of ignoring propaganda. A wide-ranging conversation about digital clutter, civic engagement, and how to stay grounded when everything feels like too much.
