Two Women Start a Podcast

I started a podcast with my wonderful friend, Amaris. Join us we embark on a captivating journey in the realms of literature and personal growth, all captured in the lively exchanges of ourpodcast, “Two Women Start a Podcast.” With our candid discussions ranging from book preferences to life’s nuances, we invite you into a world where books are more than just stories; they’re doorways to understanding, escape, and self-discovery.

Ciela and Amaris are back for their second season. They're catching up on all the things.

Starting with the foundational memories of reading, both of us shine a light on the significant role books have played in our lives from a young age. Amaris’s reflections on “The Little Engine That Could” reveal a story of perseverance that resonates deeply with her, symbolizing the driving force behind her love for books. My surprising first purchase of “Trick Baby” by Iceberg Slim, illustrates an early inclination towards stories that push boundaries, offering insights into different walks of life.

When it comes to likes and dislikes in books, Amaris and I don’t hold back. While Amaris leans towards cozy mysteries, character-driven stories, and the nuanced exploration of mature characters, I find my niche in the realm of romance, Regency historical fiction, and the tantalizing allure of erotica. Despite our varied interests, we share common ground in their aversion to indecisive characters, unnecessary cliffhangers, and stories that fail to capture the essence of true growth or understanding.

The fascinating aspect of Amaris and my journey is how our podcasting venture has influenced our reading habits. The discussions, often sparked by a shared reading experience, lead us to explore genres and themes we might not have considered individually. Our book talks, filled with laughter, revelations, and sometimes disbelief, underscore the evolution of our tastes and preferences as influenced by our dialogue and interaction with their listeners.

Beyond mere entertainment, books serve as bridges connecting me and Amaris to broader horizons. Through our engagement with different genres, including the foray into erotica and alien planet adventures, we highlight the expansive nature of literature — its power to transport, challenge, and open minds. Our candid discussions about the impact of reading on personal growth, friendship dynamics, and the pursuit of new literary adventures underscore the transformative power of books.

As Amaris and I continue to navigate the rich landscapes of literature, this podcast stands as a testament to the ever-evolving nature of reading preferences and the profound impact books can have on our lives. From childhood favorites to adult explorations of genre and theme, our journey reminds us of the joy, understanding, and sense of community books can bring into our lives. Our tale is not just about the books we’ve read but about the lives we’ve lived through them, inviting us all to turn the page and dive into our next great adventure.

“Two Women Start a Podcast” is more than just a podcast; it’s a celebration of literature’s power to shape, challenge, and enrich our lives. As we share their literary journey with everyone, we encourage you to explore your boundaries, embrace your evolving tastes, and find your voice among the pages of your favorite books. Join me and Amaris as we continue to explore the vast universe of literature, one book at a time, and perhaps in our stories, you’ll find pieces of your own.
