About this listen

Here at WAM, our mission is Making Feelings Fashionable.


For all time, women have been called hysterical, crazy and 'over' emotional. We teach you that your emotions are in fact your superpower. Starting from the launchpad of anger, the most taboo of feelings for women. Each week, psychotherapist Jennifer Cox and writer Salima Saxton invite a brilliant woman to talk about what makes them mad, and come to understand that our feelings are our compass and rocket fuel. With the Women Are Mad podcast, women finally have a space to laugh about, celebrate and learn from their previously unpopular feelings.


Follow us on @womenaremad on Instagram and tell us what makes you mad.


Jen's book, Women Are Angry: Why Your Rage Is Hiding And How To Let It Out is AVAILABLE NOW! Published by Bonnier and available from all booksellers. On pre-order in the US.

    S8 E10 Campaigning legend Mother Pukka AKA Anna Whitehouse
    Nov 18 2025

    To wrap up our eighth season, we're joined by the campaigning legend who is Mother Pukka AKA journalist Anna Whitehouse.


    Anna's story is one familiar to many. She too was trapped in the impossible reality of juggling motherhood and professional life, and one day decided enough was enough. She founded the online platform Mother Pukka for people who 'happen to be parents,' and began her tireless work campaigning for flexible and equitable working rights. In this episode, she reminds us that, even if we don't have the energy to get ourselves photographed at Downing Street, we can all do something.

    S8 E9 Briony May Williams: unstoppable inspiration!
    Nov 11 2025

    Our guest today is the infectiously inspiring TV presenter and celebrity baker Briony May Williams.


    The first visibly disabled baker on The Great British Bake Off, Briony has gone on to become an established BBC star. She's also a dedicated champion of disability charities, from Reach to Children In Need. We talk today about the initial discomfort of seeing herself as an advocate and representative, and of how growing up in the 80s meant that her formative identity was unequivocally can-do.


    Briony's first cookbook, The Retro Recipe Society, a veritable bible of comfort food, is out now!
