Women in the News
Women in the News, Then and Now You know what bothers me? Women in the news don't always get the credit they deserve. History books love a good "great man" story. But behind almost every one? A woman doing the actual work, quietly changing everything. This is where we fix that. We dig into influential women, past and present, and tell their stories the way they deserve to be told. Honest. Unfiltered. Real. Sound like your kind of thing? Keep reading. What You'll Find Here Think of this as your home base for women in history who never got their flowers. We're talking famous female politicians who broke every rule in the room. Female scientists who changed medicine, physics, and everything in between — often without a single "thank you." You'll meet female Nobel Prize winners you probably weren't taught about in school. And we'll connect the dots to today's female leaders, because honestly? The story's still being written. We also cover the quieter heroes. The ones who didn't make headlines but still shifted the culture. The women who organized, who protested, who refused to stay quiet when it was easier to just nod along. Their names might not be in every textbook, but they're in ours. (And that matters.) From Factories to the Front Lines We go deep here. Really deep. You'll read about women in WW2, the soldiers, the codebreakers, the ones who kept entire countries running while the world burned. We cover women in factories during the industrial revolution too, because someone had to build the machines. It wasn't just the men. There's more. The women's suffrage movement. Women in the Renaissance, painting and writing under names that weren't always their own. And yeah, we go global. We talk about countries with female leaders today, and we don't shy away from the harder stuff either: countries where women still have almost no rights at all. Heavy? Sometimes. Necessary? Always. Why Their Stories Still Matter Here's something you might not have considered. The stories we tell shape the world we live in. When women's contributions get erased or minimized, entire generations grow up believing certain roles aren't for them. That's why we do this work. We shine a light on women in the news who changed the world, and the ones still fighting for change right now. Because when you see a path, you're more likely to walk it. That's not just a nice idea. It's how progress actually works. Every article here is a reminder that women's history isn't a niche topic. It's everyone's history. Stay in the Loop A friend of mine once said history repeats itself because we forget it too fast. She's not wrong. We're out here telling the stories that matter, the ones that make you rethink everything you thought you knew. And we're not stopping anytime soon. Subscribe to Between The Covers to keep these stories showing up in your inbox. The ones that make you go "wait, why didn't I know this?" We'll send the good stuff straight to you.
Women's Voices
Women's Voices, Loud and Clear Women's voices haven't always been heard. Not in politics. Not in the workplace. Not even at the dinner table sometimes. But this space is different. Here, women empowerment isn't a buzzword. It's the whole point. We tell the stories of women who spoke up anyway. The ones who got told "no" and pushed forward regardless. The ones who refused to be quiet when silence was easier. Sound like something you need right now? Keep reading. What This Space Is Really About Female empowerment means something different to everyone. For some, it's a promotion finally earned after years of being overlooked. For others, it's just being believed when they speak their truth. We cover it all here, in our Editorial & Voices section under the wider Women category. You'll find honest takes on gender inequality in the workplace, women's representation in leadership, and what it actually takes to close the gap. No lectures. Just truth. We also explore the quieter side of empowerment. The everyday moments when a woman decides she's had enough. The small acts of resistance that build into something bigger. (Those matter just as much.) From Suffrage to the Senate History matters here. A lot. We dig into women's suffrage and the fight behind the 19th Amendment — the marches, the arrests, the National Woman Suffrage Association pushing for change nobody thought was coming. These women risked everything so future generations could have a seat at the table. Then we bring it forward. We talk about the first female senator, the women in politics carrying that torch today, and the leaders who are still fighting for equal representation. Curious about the bigger picture? Check out our Women in the News coverage too, or head over to Women's Empowerment for more stories that will inspire you. Gender discrimination in the workplace hasn't disappeared. But neither have the women calling it out. That's the story we keep telling, because it's one that needs to be heard over and over again. The Work That Still Needs to Happen Let's be honest — progress isn't linear. We've seen breakthroughs, but we've also seen pushback. Women's rights are still being debated in boardrooms, courtrooms, and living rooms across the country. That's why we don't stop at history. We look at today. We look at the wage gap that still exists. The leadership gap. The way women's health is still dismissed by medical professionals who don't listen. We also celebrate the wins. The women running companies. The women leading countries. The women who show up every day and refuse to shrink themselves to make others comfortable. This isn't just about looking back. It's about where we're going next. Add Your Voice A friend of mine once told me silence never changed a single law. She was right. If these stories move you, subscribe to our newsletter .

The Best Magazine for Women Like You
You want more than another glossy cover promising a "new you" by summer. You want a magazine that actually gets it. That's exactly what we built here, and it's why we're proud to call ourselves one of the best magazines for women navigating real life today.
This is Editorial & Voices, our home for honest storytelling. No filler, no fluff, just the perspectives you actually want to read. We're not your average women's daily magazine, and we never will be.
You're busy, smart, and tired of empty inspiration. We get it. That's why every piece here earns its place on your reading list, one honest story at a time.
Life doesn't happen in neat, curated squares, and neither does our honest writing. We show up for you on the good days and the messy ones too. That's a promise we take seriously.
Stories That Go Past the Surface
You'll find personal essays, feature stories, and interviews that go past the surface. This isn't your typical women's health magazine cover with airbrushed promises. We dig into real topics, from women's fitness magazine trends to the stories behind women health magazines you actually trust.
We centre Canadian and BIPOC voices because representation isn't optional here. Whether you're forty and thriving or just starting your next chapter, you'll find yourself reflected in these pages. That's the whole point of this place.
Our writers come from all walks of life, and it shows in every piece we publish. You'll read essays from mothers, entrepreneurs, and women rebuilding after loss. Real experience beats polished perfection every time.
Every story gets fact-checked, every voice gets respected, and every reader gets treated like the smart woman she is. We don't do clickbait. We do honesty, always, in every single article we publish, without exception.
Voices You Won't Find Elsewhere
Whether you're drawn to stories of Women's Empowerment that light a fire under you, want to celebrate the resilience of Canadian Women building something new, or crave the layered, powerful narratives from Women of Colour too often left out, you'll find real space here.
These aren't token features tucked in a corner. They're the heart of what we do. Every week, we bring you fresh voices, fresh perspectives, and stories that actually reflect the women reading them, honestly and fully.
You won't find a single formula here, either. Some weeks bring raw, vulnerable essays. Other weeks bring sharp opinion pieces or joyful celebrations of women doing incredible things. We keep it varied because your life is too.
Read the Stories Everyone's Talking About
Ready to dive in? Start with our feature on Canadian Women Rewriting the Rules, or explore our honest look at What Empowerment Actually Looks Like at Forty. Both stories cut through the noise you're used to scrolling past, and both leave you thinking differently.
These pieces don't lecture you. They sit with you, honestly, like a friend who's been there and made it through. That's the kind of writing you deserve, every single time you visit us here.
