  • Episode 029 - Women in Voice
    Sep 1 2020
    In episode 29 of the podcast I chat with Dr. Joan Palmiter Bajorek, CEO of Women in Voice. We talked about the women in voice idea, how things got started, the celebration of their 2nd anniversary, how the role of ally groups is changing, and what we can all do to change our industry into something we all want to feel part of. Also, I cover some harrassment my own family has been through so I'm adding a guidance suggested warning for this episode, due to the sensitivity of the topic.
