Her Impact is entering a new era—one shaped by landscapes, heritage, and the powerful connection between people and the Earth. What began as a podcast about purpose and leadership for women in STEM is now expanding into a global journey through geotourism, conservation, and the stories that define our planet.
This shift reflects a deeper understanding of the name itself. Her Impact now speaks to “Her”—the Earth. The mountains, coastlines, rivers, and ancient stones that shape our lives. And it speaks to our impact on her in return—how we protect, preserve, and interact with the places we call home.
The world is changed by those who dare to act differently.

Why the Podcast Is Evolving
Over time, the stories that stood out most were the ones rooted in place—stories shaped by geology, culture, and community. Geotourism brings these elements together, offering a way to explore destinations through their natural and cultural heritage while supporting the people who care for them.
This new direction opens the door to conversations with:
- Geopark managers
- National park leaders
- Earth Scientists and conservationists
- Community storytellers
- Guardians of protected landscapes
Their voices reveal how landscapes influence identity, how communities protect their heritage, and how responsible travel can support both people and the planet.
Travel opens your heart, broadens your mind and fills your life with stories to tell.
