Celebrating the Most Powerful Women in Travel

This episode explores the 2024 Women Who Travel Power List, highlighting 15 women shaping the travel industry and its discourse. Against the backdrop of Women's History Month, the hosts discuss the creation of the list, emphasizing the extensive collaborative effort involved. More significantly, the conversation shifts to the list's unique focus on women from diverse fields—film, music, activism, and food—rather than solely on CEOs of travel companies. For instance, the inclusion of Dr. Rae Wynn-Grant, a wildlife expert, and Charlotte Simpson, a solo female traveler and influencer, exemplifies this broader scope. The discussion further touches upon the evolving landscape of solo female travel, addressing safety concerns and showcasing inspiring examples like Charlotte Simpson's journey. Finally, the episode highlights the importance of representation in travel, exemplified by the inclusion of Colombian singer Kali Uchis and Brazilian fashion designer Pat Chavaras, and how their work reflects cultural experiences and challenges traditional notions of adventure.
