About the show

The Room She Built is a podcast for women who didn't wait for permission. Hosted by Pam Newman and Karen Loader, two women who have built businesses, careers, and lives inside systems that were never designed for them. The Room She Built features honest conversations about leadership, ambition, identity, resilience, and what it really takes to create success on your own terms. Each episode features candid stories from founders, executives, creatives, and changemakers who have challenged expectations, navigated setbacks, and built something meaningful. No polished corporate narratives. No pretending to have it all figured out. Just real conversations about the wins, the struggles, the lessons, and the moments that changed everything. Whether you're building a business, leading a team, reinventing yourself, or simply looking for a room where your voice belongs, pull up a chair. This room was built for you.
