Meet the Hosts Norgerie Rivas Elizabeth Raar Jessica Rogers 🔍 FAQ Q: What makes She Builds different from other architecture podcasts?She Builds doesn’t spotlight famous buildings—it spotlights the women behind them. It’s not about design trends. It’s about the people history tried to ignore. Q: Is She Builds only for women or those in the design profession?Not at all. While it centers on women’s contributions, the podcast is for anyone interested in untold history, structural storytelling, and the human side of architecture. Q: How do the hosts select which women to feature?Episodes are chosen through a mix of academic research, listener recommendations, and historical relevance. The goal is to highlight underrepresented stories across time, geography, and impact. Q: Are the episodes technical or accessible to general listeners?She Builds is designed for everyone. It’s driven by stories, not specs—so even if you’ve never opened a blueprint, you’ll be fully drawn in. Q: How does She Builds contribute to changing the conversation in design and construction?By making space for the voices that were left out, She Builds challenges traditional narratives of who builds and why. It invites the industry—and the public—to rethink whose contributions we value.
