ALEXANDRIA, VA, UNITED STATES, January 15, 2026 /EINPresswire.com/ -- The acclaimed Electric Ladies Podcast, produced by Green Connections Media LLC (GCM), today announced the release of its 500th episode, marking a major milestone for one of the most influential podcasts covering climate change, clean energy, sustainability, and women’s leadership.

Hosted by award-winning journalist, business leader, and sought-after speaker Joan Michelson, CEO of GCM, Electric Ladies Podcast is based in the Washington, DC metropolitan area and reaches a global audience. The podcast is known for its in-depth, insightful, and accessible interviews with women leaders and innovators who are advancing climate solutions, clean energy technologies, and sustainable business strategies across industries, as well as with communicators and artists who are creating inspiring ways to talk about them.

Since its launch, Electric Ladies Podcast has featured more than 500 conversations with Fortune 500 C-suite executives, senior government leaders, nonprofit and NGO executives, entrepreneurs, scientists, investors, artists, and journalists, including Congresswoman Chrissy Houlahan (D-PA).

Topics span energy transition technologies, transportation and electrification, climate modeling and data analytics, sustainable fashion and food systems, green buildings, battery innovation, public policy, climate reporting, and impact investing—reflecting the interconnected nature of today’s climate and sustainability challenges across the economy.

In addition to thought leadership on climate and energy innovation, Electric Ladies Podcast is widely valued for its practical career insights. Each episode offers candid advice and lessons learned designed especially for mid-career women seeking leadership roles in business, government, media, science, and sustainability-driven organizations.

“Five hundred episodes represents 500 proof points that there are thousands, maybe millions of women driving the climate and energy transformation across every sector of the global economy,” Michelson said. “These talented, creative women leaders demystify complex issues, elevate solutions, and help listeners understand how things actually work, and how to drive the transformational change that serves people, planet and profit goals.”

“Importantly,” she added, “These influential women also share nuanced advice for building a rewarding and meaningful career that’s true to who you are. Every conversation is inspiring and I am so grateful to my guests for making the time in their hectic schedules to have these in-depth, unique conversations.”
