This is Core Sample — a podcast about the women who work across the full length of the mining and critical minerals supply chain. From the pit to the boardroom, from the assay lab to the trading desk, their work powers the energy transition, national defense, and the global economy. Most people have no idea.

In this first episode, I’m sharing why I started this show, who it’s for, and what I hope it becomes. If you’re a woman in mining, critical minerals, or natural resources — or you know one — you’re in the right place.

Hit follow, share it with someone who needs to hear it, and let’s get into it.
