WILLIAMBURG — The Fanatical DreamHer podcast is celebrating the release of its 50th episode, honoring the dozens of women who shared their stories and insights.

Fanatical DreamHer is an empowerment community committed to pushing the boundaries of what’s possible for girls and women. The DreamHer platform includes coaching, workbooks, live speaking events and workshops.

“I wanted my daughter — and every young woman listening — to hear that their dreams are not ‘someday’ material. They’re worth taking seriously right now,” says host April Kemp. “This platform was built so that women of all ages can see themselves in each other’s stories and know they’re not alone.”

Fanatical DreamHer has featured a diverse range of guests, starting as a family-rooted mission with April’s daughter Hope and now expanding to include entrepreneurs, founders, creatives, educators, and community builders, all sharing advice on how to navigate big life pivots, questions of identity or career transitions.

The milestone was punctuated by a Fanatical DreamHer celebration, bringing several past show guests together for a special event. During the celebration, the first-ever “Future Fanatical DreamHer Award” was presented to 12-year-old fashion designer Maelyn Kertis, who has designed and sewn over 50 outfits.

As the podcast marks its 50th episode, April and the Fanatical DreamHer team are focused on the next chapter: reaching more listeners, partnering with more DreamHers, and continuing to spotlight stories that don’t always make the highlight reel — but absolutely deserve the mic.

“Our guests are proof that ordinary women doing extraordinary things can change communities, families, and futures,” says Kemp. “This 50th episode isn’t just about our show — it’s a celebration of every DreamHer who has said yes to sharing her story and every listener who has quietly decided, ‘My dream matters too.’”

Listeners can tune into the 50th episode and the full archive of Fanatical DreamHer episodes on all major podcast platforms.
