As the nation celebrates Women’s History Month, listeners of News & Talk WAOK will hear powerful voices from across the community through a new weekly segment debuting on the “Wake Up With Dee Morning Show.”
“She Speaks,” hosted by Dr. Dee Dawkins-Haigler, premieres Monday, March 9, at 8 a.m. and will feature candid conversations with women leaders from metro Atlanta who are making an impact in politics, business, faith and beyond.
The weekly series aims to highlight the stories, challenges and triumphs of women who are balancing leadership roles while maintaining their personal lives.
“She Speaks” will air every Monday throughout March as part of WAOK’s programming recognizing Women’s History Month. The segment will bring together influential voices for meaningful discussions centered on leadership, community impact and the realities of navigating demanding careers while managing family and personal responsibilities.
Dr. Dawkins-Haigler, host of the “Wake Up With Dee Morning Show,” said the conversations are designed to be both empowering and relatable for listeners.
The segment will feature women who lead in a variety of spaces, from boardrooms and courtrooms to churches and community organizations. Guests will share their experiences, insights and lessons learned while building successful careers and making meaningful contributions in their respective fields.
“She Speaks” also highlights the importance of mentorship, representation and community support, particularly for women striving to break barriers in traditionally male-dominated industries.
Throughout the series, guests will address topics such as leadership development, work-life balance, overcoming professional challenges and creating opportunities for the next generation of women leaders.
The goal, organizers say, is to foster open and transparent dialogue that resonates with listeners across metro Atlanta while celebrating the achievements of women who are shaping their communities.
The segment builds on the broader mission of the “Wake Up With Dee Morning Show,” which focuses on conversations about politics, culture, community issues and everyday life affecting listeners across the region.
Listeners can tune in live to hear the conversations every Monday morning at 8 a.m. on the “Wake Up With Dee Morning Show.”
Additional details about upcoming guests will be announced as the series continues throughout the month.
“She Speaks” promises to deliver powerful conversations, insightful perspectives and inspiring stories from women who are leading and shaping the future of the community.
