Podcast Interview
Jesselyn’s story is an inspiring one for girls all over the world. It tells them: You can do anything you put your mind to. Who in your life has a story that you think girls (or women) would benefit from? Who has done something that wouldn’t be thought of as “normal” for a girl or a woman to do?
Once you identify that person, ask her if you can interview her for your podcast. (You don’t actually have to have a podcast! It’s just pretend—unless you decide to make one. It’s not that hard. This guide from NPR tells you how to do it. )
Prepare the questions you want to ask this person. Sample questions: What did you do? Why? What challenges did you face? How did you keep going? Where did you find support? What do you want girls and women all over the world to know?
Make sure you have the person’s permission to record the interview, and then set up a time to do it. You can do it over Zoom (there are ways to record the conversation) or in person, if it’s safe to do so. Then follow the instructions in the guide to edit and post your episode online.
