Dorina started out in daily journalism and radio. She loves the art of interviewing and storytelling. Dorina is now the co-host of a new podcast alongside Tara Beth Leach and Dr. Nijay Gupta.

Throughout history, women have often been relegated to the sidelines, subjugated by patriarchy, or prevented from exercising their God-given gifts at all. But women foster human flourishing in an array of spaces—as authors, pastors, and scholars. As friends, parents, and conversation partners. And much, much more. This half of the church has a unique voice that the whole church needs to hear.

In Hear Women, Dorina Lazo Gilmore-Young, Tara Beth Leach, and Nijay Gupta engage in conversations that highlight the many ways that women are having a profound impact in the church, their communities, and the world. Join us as we listen to women, for the good of the church.
