Women vs Everything is a women's history podcast focusing on individuals who overcame adversity in the face of oppression. Each episode Jess and Grace discuss a different badass woman from any period in history, exploring her life, achievements, and legacy as well as the historical and cultural contexts of the time and how they might have impacted the way women have and still do move through the world. We try to approach things in a light-hearted way to bridge the gap between education and entertainment. Talking about the darker parts of life can be a bit of a mind f*** so it's really good to bring laughter alongside such topics. As intersectional feminists we aim to share stories of all women including women with disabilities, women of colour, queer women, trans women, indigenous women and women who sex work. Because all women means all women. Support us on Patreon and check out our socials: Twitter: @WvEverythingPod Insta: @womenvseverythingCopyright 2021 All rights reserved. Mundial
