MAD CONVERSATIONS

Season 1

“We started MADWOMEN because it feels like everyone’s following trends to chase visibility. We wanted to learn from the ones actually cutting through the noise.”



Mia and Elissa,
Co-Hosts of MADWOMEN

MEET THE MADWOMEN

We’re Mia and Elissa, longtime collaborators, creative technologists, and strategists.

We started MADWOMEN because we were tired.
Tired of templates. Tired of content with no soul.
Tired of the recycled strategies dressed up as innovation.

We went viral before virality had a name. But building two companies taught us that “build it and they will come” isn’t the mantra to bet on in the algorithmic age. Today, attention isn’t a given. It’s earned. Not with noise, but with guts.

So we made something for the ones paying attention. The ones who lead with instinct. Who trust their taste. Who aren’t afraid to do things a little mad.

This show is for you.
