About this listen

In this episode of Choose the Bear, I talk with historian and bestselling author Tilar J. Mazzeo about one of my long-time heroes: Barbe-Nicole Clicquot Ponsardin, better known as The Widow Clicquot.

Tilar’s book, The Widow Clicquot, first introduced me to this visionary 19th-century businesswoman who revolutionized the champagne industry—and changed the way I think about legacy and independence. We dive into Barbe-Nicole’s story, Tilar’s writing journey, and other incredible women from history you may not know (yet!).

I highly recommend The Widow Clicquot for your next book club—it’s the kind of inspiration that makes you want to build your own empire.
