- EP 01: Women as Catalysts for Change: Awakening Social Impact
This episode originally aired as part of the Women Igniting Change® podcast. While it reflects the foundational work that shaped this journey, The Audacity Tapes represents a deeper, bolder evolution of these conversations — centered on truth, conviction, and courage.
Original episode description below:“Given the nature of social justice and social impact challenges that we're facing as a country and as a world, this is the perfect time to launch this podcast,” explains Robbin Jorgensen, Host of the Women Igniting Change® Podcast. The podcast is based around the core belief that women have the untapped ability to solve the world’s most pressing issues, both within their own communities and in the larger world. Every woman has her own unique contribution to make and an inner spark which–even if it’s been extinguished–once reignited can change the world.
Robbin shares the story of traveling to Rwanda, first in 2017 with Mercer on Mission, led by Professor Etienne Musonera of Mercer University in Atlanta. There she worked with women who became widows as a result of the 1994 genocide against the Tutsi. In 2019, she began organizing the building of an economic empowerment center for women in Huye in the Southern Province of Rwanda.
Of course, with so many changes taking place in the last few years, the needs and goals of all involved have changed, but Robbin’s mission remains the same. Her story proves that no matter what anyone else has to say about your mission, by following your own inner voice, you, too, can ignite change.
Quotes
- “I want to serve women who deeply care about social justice and social change, and want to make the world a better place. I want to provide a platform for you to be inspired by women who are changing the world, leveraging their passions and their gifts. I want to provide tips and trainings on how you can affect change in your own community in your own lives.” (1:02 | Robbin)
- “Belief number one is that unleashing the contribution of women is a critical catalyst to solving some of the most pressing global challenges of our time…every woman has an idea around implementing social change or social impact that can revolutionize her community, her industry, her organization and or the world.” (1:48 | Robbin)
- “We all have those moments in our lives when we have to make a decision that doesn't always make sense to the outside world and might seem a little nuts. But inside you know it's something that you are meant to do. And through this podcast, I want to invite you to pay attention to those whispers a little bit more, especially around social justice, and social change ideas and ways that you want to affect change. I want you to start paying attention to those whispers and take action when you hear them and when they show up.” (5:49 | Robbin)
- “Any social impact idea that you have, give it permission and breathing room to grow, evolve and change as you do…it doesn't have to look just one way.” (9:20 | Robbin)

About The Audacity Tapes™
From the publisher's feed
The Audacity Tapes™ is a long-form podcast exploring what happens when conviction becomes non-negotiable.
These are not surface interviews. They are deep, unfiltered dialogues about the moments that demanded courage — the decisions that disrupted comfort — and the belief systems that refused to bend.
Hosted by Robbin Jorgensen, Founder & CEO of Women Igniting Change®, each episode examines the moments that reshaped identity, demanded courage, and forced a choice. What unites them is not title or platform — it’s moral clarity under pressure.
Formerly the Women Igniting Change® Podcast, this evolution reflects what has always been at the heart of these conversations: the audacity to imagine a better world — and the discipline to build it.
Our guests come from different paths and lived experiences, but they share one thing: a refusal to look away.
These conversations won’t just inspire you — they will recalibrate you. They invite you to examine your own convictions and take the next step toward the change that’s calling.
New episodes every Monday.
With listeners in 59 countries, The Audacity Tapes™ is a global platform for women leading with truth, courage, and consequence.
