Overlooked: Women's Health Can't WaitAuthor: Golda Arthur
Immersive personal stories and conversations about women's health. Overlooked is an award-winning womens health podcast, hosted by journalist Golda Arthur. In this podcast, we ask, what has been most overlooked, and where is the inequality felt more deeply? The mission of Overlooked is to empower women by helping them advocate better for themselves, and we do this by featuring immersive personal storytelling, and in-depth conversations about womens health. Overlooked began as a series about ovarian cancer, told through the story of Golda's mother, Teresa. After that first season, the show broadened its focus to look at other topics and stories about women's health, including menopause, endometriosis, motherhood, and survivorship.

The cost of endometriosis, with Sanju Pal
Episode 60
Tuesday, 2 June, 2026
Sanju Pal was a high-performing management consultant when she was told she had a cyst on her ovary the size of a Coke can. But sitting in her gynecologist's office, facing urgent surgery, all she could think about was her job. That moment was the beginning of a seven year struggle through endometriosis, dismissal by her employer, and two employment tribunals - that ended in a landmark ruling establishing that endometriosis can be considered a disability under the Equality Act 2010 in the UK. Sanju Pal talks to Golda about the overlooked aspects of her health story, how her relationship with her body has evolved, and what she’s learned from years of self-advocacy.
