Om Podcasten

Immersive personal stories and conversations about women's health. Overlooked is an award-winning women’s health podcast, hosted by journalist Golda Arthur. In this podcast, we ask, what has been most overlooked, and where is the inequality felt more deeply? The mission of Overlooked is to empower women by helping them advocate better for themselves, and we do this by featuring immersive personal storytelling, and in-depth conversations about women’s health. Overlooked began as a series about ovarian cancer, told through the story of Golda's mother, Teresa. After that first season, the show broadened its focus to look at other topics and stories about women's health, including menopause, endometriosis, motherhood, and survivorship.
