Introducing COWGIRL Talk: Real Conversations for Women in the Western Industry
Jul 23, 2026
The conversations that begin at the COWGIRL 30 Under 30 Leadership Summit are continuing all year long.
COWGIRL Talk is the new private podcast of the COWGIRL Leadership Academy, hosted by Katie Schrock. Each episode brings Academy members into meaningful conversations with influential leaders, experts and changemakers from across the Western industry.
Guests will explore topics such as career growth, leadership, networking, entrepreneurship, confidence and navigating the opportunities—and challenges—that come with building an impactful life and career.
But COWGIRL Talk is designed to do more than inspire.
Each conversation will offer practical ideas members can apply, followed by discussion prompts that encourage women to think critically, share what worked, learn from what did not and continue the conversation with one another.
