What do women's diaries tell us that's not in the history books? What has changed about women's experiences in the last 400 years, and what remains frustratingly familiar? Historian Sarah Gristwood, author of SECRET VOICES: A YEAR OF WOMEN'S DIARIES, explains the common threads she found among the stories women felt they could tell only to themselves.

Sarah and Amy discuss:

The most common emotion expressed in all the diaries contained in this book
The meaning of a diary as a secret-keeper, as a historical record, and sometimes both
Whether our social media posts and Substacks today can serve the same purpose—and where they fall short
