    Description

    Occasionally we run across a podcast so good that we just have to share it with you.  Today, it’s Role Model, which dropped this week. 
    Role Model, hosted by British model and fashion designer Leomie Anderson, sits down with industry “role models” who have carved out a space for themselves at the cutting edge of culture and business. Leomie chats with her guests to explore how on their road to success, they have faced and dealt with discrimination, sexism and prejudice. Role Model is meant to serve as an uplifting podcast, focused on empowering women of all ages.

    Hosted by Laura Cathcart Robbins, a writer and a recovery thriver and survivor, Laura found herself in an all too familiar position. In September 2018, she was the only black woman in the room at Brave Magic, a famed writer’s retreat. After it was over, she wrote about her “only one” experience in The Huffington Post and comments started flooding into her DM. These comments were from people from all races, ethnicities, creeds, and nationalities who had felt “othered”. Laura beautifully interviews a person about their Only One story each episode and addresses as many of those DM’s as possible in the process. In this podcast, you’ll hear raw, vulnerable accounts from people who are, like most of us, just eager to connect. Our hope is that The Only One In The Room will inspire a change of perspective in how we all see and hear each other’s stories. We want you think twice before judging the person standing next to you at a party, in the pick-up line at school or in a crowded subway car. This is a podcast for anyone who has ever felt alone in a room full of people – which is to say, that this podcast is for everyone.
