“I’ve been listening ever since I got a hold of The Story of Art Without Men book. To listen to a space filled with women telling the stories of themselves, of artists, of goddesses and mythical women creates a space that I can melt into. You are among the very best, Katy!”

Every other episode is so expertly delivered and tells these extraordinary stories of the...”Read full review »
