Finding Foundations
Finding Foundations is a podcast about women and the stories that shape our lives.
Hosted by Karen Thom from The Foundation Studio, each week I sit down with a woman and talk about her story. The things that happened, the choices she made, what changed and what she knows now that she didn't know then.
Every woman has a story. I'm interested in the bit that changed everything.
We've talked about starting businesses, changing careers, motherhood, relationships, money, trauma, health, starting again and choosing a completely different life.
And sometimes I talk to experts about the things that affect our lives but we don't always talk about enough — money, sex, relationships, women's health and everything in between.
Three questions come up in every conversation:
What's the one truth you've come to know on your journey?
How do you live it every day, even when things feel impossible?
How does it feel today to see how your life has changed?
New episodes every week.
