This week the ladies are kicking off Pride Month with two women who couldn't be more different, but are both badass in their own ways! First, Emily tells the story of Katharine Lee Bates, a poet, professor, and writer who is most famous for writing the iconic America the Beautiful. Did you know she was also a lesbian?? Then, Kelley tells the truly twisty tale of Catalina de Erauso who dressed as a man to escape convent life and traveled the world, working, breaking hearts, and even dabbling as a warlord!
