Episode 6 is out now! Join us for a conversation with special guest Hénia Belalia about the effects of underrepresentation of women and girls* in media, and what we can do as young people to remind ourselves of our worth and our value. Hénia also reminds us of the power of our voices, and how they can be used to challenge people, corporations, and institutions who uphold gender stereotypes and unrealistic beauty standards. You don’t want to miss it!
Hénia is a French-Algerian educator, theater director, and grassroots organizer. She has worked with youth, and young girls* in particular, for about 20 years, Hénia loves to spend time in nature, get lost in books, dance, cook, and live her best life as an auntie. In our conversation, she offered up some amazing wisdom as well as advice for young girls* navigating toxic media culture.
Fun fact: Hénia ran the summer program that inspired this podcast! Girls* in Action was only possible because of her mentorship and dedication to youth. Thank you, Hénia!❤️

Our newest podcast episode is out now on Spotify, Youtube, and Apple Podcasts! In this episode, we talk about a few powerful women of history who you most likely have never heard of, in your history classes or elsewhere. Why is that? Surely, women* have been doing meaningful work for all of history... so why is it that we so rarely hear about them? Whose work/research has been made possible by these strong female figures? Why is it important to have women* represented in every industry and field of work? Click the link in our bio to join us for a conversation about the under-representation of women* in fields of STEM, business and entrepreneurship, and the arts, and learn about a few amazing women along the way!
Who are some powerful women* of history (or of today) that you’re inspired by? Drop their name in the comments and we’ll do a story post highlighting them and their work 🤗
As always, we encourage you to take what you learn in this episode and move beyond, continue doing your own research. Want to be an engineer? Find some women* in that field that you can learn from! Want to be a artist? Follow some creatives on Instagram and be inspired by their work! No matter what it is you want to do, remember that you are powerful and capable, and you can achieve it.
Always remember to keep learning (and un-learning), and keep uplifting one another.
