Episode Dream Bigger in 2026 with Icons & Trailblazers
Step into 2026 inspired, empowered, and ready to dream bigger with this special holiday edition of Women Road Warriors. Hosts Shelley Johnson and Kathy Tuccaro bring together three extraordinary female icons whose stories prove that resilience, reinvention, and purpose have no expiration date.
Country music trailblazers Chapel Hart share how they broke barriers as independent African American artists—turning rejection into rocket fuel while building success on their own terms and setting their sights on global impact.
Hollywood icon Ruta Lee, whose career spans more than seven decades, reflects on a life shaped by courage and grace—from starring alongside legends like Frank Sinatra to orchestrating a real-life Cold War rescue to save her grandmother from Siberia.
Rounding out the episode, Jean Peelen, author of Feisty, proves it’s never too late to reinvent yourself. Now in her 80s, Jean shares wisdom from a remarkable life that includes seven careers—federal civil rights attorney, broadcasting executive, politician, model, Survivor finalist, and author.
This uplifting New Year special delivers powerful perspective, fearless energy, and real-world inspiration to help listeners step confidently into 2026—no matter their age, stage, or dream.
