Annette Kellerman - Leah's Courage Pick

Leah finished up courage month talking about a rebel in a swimsuit. In an era where women were expected to be silent and modest, Annette Kellerman dove headfirst into controversy. She used her body as a tool of protest, a canvas for art, and a vehicle for change. She helped create the modern swimsuit by not being ashamed of her body. Even in 2025, some of us who wear a swimsuit in public are performing an act of courage. A battle between ourselves and culture. A piece of fabric whose history is written with rebellion. Learn about this poetic, noble, land-mermaid on this episode of the Gal's Guide Podcast.
