High Heels Higher Standards

Women Who Changed the Rules (and Didn’t Ask Permission)


Listen Later

March is Women’s History Month — and this week on High Heels, Higher Standards, we’re moving beyond surface-level celebration and into strategy.

In this powerful conversation, Heidi interviews Ashley about the women who didn’t just succeed within broken systems — they rewrote them. From Ruth Bader Ginsburg’s legal strategy to Madam C.J. Walker’s economic empire, from Katherine Johnson’s NASA calculations to Vera Wang’s bold reinvention at 40, this episode explores what it really means to change the rules without asking permission.

This is not performative empowerment.
 It’s disciplined ambition.
 It’s structural influence.
 It’s rewriting power on your terms.

If you’re a woman building a career, launching a business, leading teams, or designing a life aligned with your standards — this episode is your blueprint.

Next week: Part Two — Women in STEM who reshaped science, technology, and innovation.
