A Tucson mom has launched a podcast showcasing mothers as an economic force and to amplify women's voices. She describes it as her 'love note to moms.'
Cathalena E. Burch Yvonne So was listening to a country station on the radio one day last spring when she heard the commercial.

Economically, we’d be better off, and socially, women’s work and services would be valued.” The winners were given six weeks of training in the Seneca Women Podcast Academy before launching their shows through Seneca Women Podcast Network on iHeart.

So’s podcast has a political agenda, as well, driven by her desire to empower women to get more politically active as a means of effecting change on the local and national levels. “People don’t value the work that we do. I don’t think our American society values mom,” So said. “We point to American exceptionalism, to our people and our culture. Who cultivates that? It’s mom. It’s mom and caretakers and day care workers.”
