Woman Uncaged
In these unfiltered, unedited conversations, Linda Katz and Laura Gates-Lupton get real about what it means to live full, joyous, and meaningful lives in a culture that continues to silence, shrink, and sideline women.
Laura and Linda call out the ways patriarchy disguises systemic problems as personal failings, and they refuse to let women carry that lie alone. They question, illuminate, and lay bare the forces that shape women’s lives, while lifting up the possibility of something different.
With candor, humor, and plenty of personal stories, they invite women to stop hating themselves, reclaim their power, and opt out of the narratives that were never theirs to begin with.

In this episode of Woman Uncaged, we explore the radical idea of a post-job world. Inspired by the rise of AI and automation, we unpack what it could mean—socially, economically, emotionally—to live in a world where traditional jobs are no longer the default. Rather than succumbing to fear or dystopian visions, we wonder aloud: what if this shift opened the door to more creativity, rest, equity, and community? What if universal basic income or healthcare became the foundation for a society not built around exhaustion and survival, but around purpose, care, and possibility? From unschooling roots to feminist reflections on work, identity, and worth, this episode invites listeners to reimagine what it means to be human when no one owns your hours.
