A Woman Infusing Strength with Toni Lackner
Host Phebe Beiser welcomes Toni Lackner to The Podcast Edition of Women Writing for a Change. Listeners first heard Toni on the Love Podcast, with her musings on James Dean. In this episode, Toni shares on a wide variety of topics, using poetry, essay, satire and short story. 
Toni finds inspiration in the women in her life who have been nurturers – Aunt Fran’s ability to fix anything, Helen at 96, and Eleanor Roosevelt’s courage.
But her most poignant moment comes as she discovers, “I know someone’s waiting to hear my words.”
Sending Forth Words that are Bold and Necessary
But once you become active in something, something happens to you. You get excited and suddenly you realize you count. - Studs Terkel
From women connecting through the arts to rap singers and art critics, The Podcast Edition brings listeners lively discussions about the intersection of writing and life. Poetry, essays, fiction and even rap, showcases the words of women, young women and men who are inspired by the power of the written and spoken word.
