Rarely Heard Answers, from Rarely Heard Women
To be interviewed, contact Sarah Smyth Sarah.Smyth@rarelyheardvoices.com
Concept:
This interview series, titled "Rarely Heard Answers" features two inspiring women from diverse backgrounds engaging in a Q&A session. In each episode, women take turns asking each other five thought-provoking questions, selected at random.
Target Audience:
This series is aimed at women of all ages and backgrounds interested in exploring and learning from each other’s experiences. The series seeks to foster a sense of connection and understanding through candid and relatable conversations.
Format:
- Each episode will feature two female guests who will alternate asking and answering questions.
- Each woman will have the opportunity to ask the other five questions drawn from a curated deck specifically designed to prompt reflection, humour, and vulnerability. Topics will cover a wide range of experiences relevant to women, including:
- Career
- Relationships
- Self-discovery
- Motherhood (optional, depending on guests)
- Societal expectations
- Overcoming challenges
- Personal growth
- Aspirations and dreams
- Interviews will be filmed in a simple, intimate setting with the two women seated opposite each other at a table. Lighting and background will create a warm and inviting atmosphere.
- Each episode will be about twenty minutes long, allowing for impactful responses and a meaningful exchange.
Content Strategy:
- Provocative: Questions will be designed to challenge assumptions and encourage introspection within a short timeframe.
- Funny: Humour will be encouraged to lighten the conversation and create a relatable atmosphere.
- Challenging: Discussions will delve into complex issues and experiences women face, even in a shorter format.
- Heart-searching: The series will explore emotional moments and vulnerabilities, fostering a connection with the audience.
Distribution:
- The series will be featured solely within Rarely Heard Voices password protected digital space.
Overall Objective:
