Description

Immersive personal stories and conversations about women's health. Overlooked is an award-winning women’s health podcast, hosted by journalist Golda Arthur. In this podcast, we ask, what has been most overlooked, and where is the inequality felt more deeply? The mission of Overlooked is to empower women by helping them advocate better for themselves, and we do this by featuring immersive personal storytelling, and in-depth conversations about women’s health. Overlooked began as a series about ovarian cancer, told through the story of Golda's mother, Teresa. After that first season, the show broadened its focus to look at other topics and stories about women's health, including menopause, endometriosis, motherhood, and survivorship.

What a visit to the ER taught me about pain in women
2026/01/15
In the last week of 2025, host Golda Arthur went to the emergency room with a sudden, intense headache. The scan showed nothing. But sitting in an uncomfortable chair with an IV in her arm, she realized something. In this audio essay, Golda talks about her experience in the ER, and why pain - how we express it, what we know about it, how we treat it - will be a central theme of Overlooked in 2026.

The rivalry that built birth control in America - women's health history with Stephanie Gorton
2025/10/21
This episode steps back in time, to the origins of the fight for birth control. It wasn't led by one woman - it was shaped by a fierce rivalry between two: Margaret Sanger, who founded Planned Parenthood, and an overlooked figure from history, Mary Ware Dennett, who was the first person to ever take reproductive rights to Washington. Their different visions for birth control - and their bitter personal conflict - created the movement we know today. Author Stephanie Gorton reveals how this hidden history still matters, 100 years later. The episode is based on 'The Icon and the Idealist, Margaret Sanger, Mary Ware Dennett, and the Rivalry That Brought Birth Control to America' More on Stephanie Gorton's work here.  What to listen to next: The dark history of the Dalkon Shield IUD, with Chikako Takeshita.

2025/10/14
Golda hits the streets of Manhattan for an unscientific sampling to answer this question, then talks with Sanj Singh, CEO of Temple Therapeutics, about his mission to turn uncomfortable silence into curiosity, then advocacy from his fellow men.

A new way of looking at endometriosis, with Rowan Gardner
2025/09/30

Rowan Gardner is co-founder of Precision Life, where she's using genetics to revolutionize how we understand endometriosis - breaking it into subtypes instead of treating it as one disease. We know that with endometriosis, the stakes are high, and the challenges are enormous - but so is the opportunity, says Rowan, who is finding new ways to look at patients and their data.  Sign up for the newsletter to go deeper and get links and resources on this topic.  What to listen to next: A personal experience of endometriosis, from the author of 'Pain and Prejudice' by Gabrielle Jackson.  New to Overlooked?

2025/09/23
Morgan Stanton's frustration with unanswered questions about her fibroids led her to start a company that's collecting menstrual blood to build better models of women's reproductive health.

Ovarian Cancer Series: A genetic journey
2025/09/15
Genetic testing is a powerful preventive tool for ovarian cancer, especially since there's no way to screen for this disease like we can with breast or cervical cancer. Golda's journey into prevention started with the results of a genetic test, which showed a gene mutation called RAD51C. But with that knowledge comes difficult decisions. She tells that story. And, Jason Rosenthal tells the story of his wife, Amy Krouse Rosenthal, and the work of the AKR Foundation.  Overlooked is a recipient of the AKR Foundation's Innovator Award, which made this series possible.
