Welcome to MORE THAN A MUSE, a weekly podcast where we explore the lives of women artists, musicians, writers, sculptors, and more. Join Stauney (a graphic designer) and Sadie (a singer-songwriter) EVERY MONDAY as we reframe art history and pop culture with feminism, empowering women to be educated, unapologetically angry, and champion those whom history has forgotten. Through in-depth historical discussions and pop culture chats, we spotlight unsung heroines, all while challenging the status quo. It's time to remember every woman artist as 'More Than A Muse'.

Give Me Back My Girlhood: The Path from Girls to Women
It's our LAST episode of March Madness and to celebrate, Stauney and Sadie and diving deep into a topic they're passionate about: Girlhood. It's a "coming of rage" story as we discuss the myth behind "girls mature faster," talking about the language we use with girls vs boys, periods and boobs, skincare and makeup, the "Sephora teens" from this year, dress codes, anti-aging, plastic surgery, menopause, virginity, divorce, finding joy in childhood interests, fitting into "life stages" and all the other incredible, messed-up, unfair and strange things that change us from women into girls. We talk about the challenges of being forced to grow up too soon and then told our whole lives that we need to "look younger." We also get personal talking about our own experiences growing up, coming into our own, discovering who we are, and reclaiming the parts of us we lost along the way. Losing your girlhood is a violent, angry experience.
