wo0 pod – Details, episodes & analysis

Meet Wendy Gannon, aka 'wo0'— professional photographer and fierce advocate for women’s empowerment. This bold first series, "Don't F**king Tell Me What to Wear or How to Run My Business," was born out of Wendy's viral LinkedIn post calling out sexist comments about how women in business should dress. What started as a powerful response to patriarchy has evolved into a movement featuring a studio shoot celebrating women and what they wear to work, a coffee table book, a 2025 photography exhibition, and now this unapologetic podcast.

In this intro episode, Wendy explains how the project came to life and gives you a flavour of what listeners can expect: raw, unfiltered conversations with women who have overcome abuse, misogyny, and sh**ty patriarchal expectations, to live life and run their businesses on their own terms. Expect bold stories, humour (and plenty of swearing) as Wendy raises the voices of women who refuse to be silenced.
