Speaking of Phenomenal | Journalism for Women and Gender-Expansive Voices

Speaking of Phenomenal is an independent podcast covering women and gender-expansive people mainstream media hasn't found yet. Host Amy Boyle, a multimedia journalist and adjunct lecturer in photojournalism and visual storytelling at Northwestern University's Medill School of Journalism, reports longform narrative conversations with women and gender-expansive people doing significant work the news cycle has yet to document. The work began in 2018 as the 52 Phenomenal Women Project, a portrait storytelling series that produced 104 reported profiles and was covered by the Chicago Tribune, Chicago Reader and NBC5. The podcast launched in October 2020 as the audio extension of that journalism. Now in its sixth season, with 65 episodes and counting, Speaking of Phenomenal has reached 100 countries and 782 cities. Every person you'll hear has a story the world should know. And they sound like this. www.speakingofphenomenal.com. Support the show via our Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/cw/u25038150

Lisa Cornwell

Lisa Cornwell is a keynote speaker, author, and national broadcaster whose work focuses on conflict, clarity, and accountability. A longtime host and reporter for Golf Channel, she became a central figure in a national conversation about workplace culture following her memoir "Troublemaker" and a Washington Post investigation into systemic issues in sports media.

Today, Lisa speaks candidly about the cost of being right, the responsibility that comes with self-awareness, and how clarity—not conflict—creates lasting change. Drawing from lived experience, she challenges audiences to rethink how they show up when it matters most.
