Following the release of Condé Nast Traveler's annual Women Who Travel Power List, spotlighting 15 leaders in design, activism, food, storytelling, and pop culture, Lale and fellow editor Megan Spurrell get together in the studio to chat about how they shaped the list, the ways its guiding their travel decisions, and ask the question: How should we use our power, once we have it?
Lale Arikoglu: Hi there, I'm Lale Arikoglu, and welcome to an episode of Women Who Travel. This week we're celebrating the publication of our 2024 Women Who Travel power list, we spotlight 15 women across fields like film, music, activism and food, and shaping how we travel and think about travel today. These women are offering unique insights from so many different angles and life experiences. To help me dive in and go behind the scenes of the making of the list is senior editor Megan Spurrell, a repeat podcast guest, my dear, dear colleague, a South America expert and truly intrinsic in putting this project together, there were many reasons why I was looking forward to this chat. Well, happy Women's History Month, Megan.
Megan Spurrell: My gosh, thank you, I forgot there was a whole month.
LA: But we're here today to chat about our annual Women Who Travel power list, which I think the two of us have put no tears, but a lot of blood and sweat into this year and last year.
MS: A lot of hours.

LA: ... You are getting a present basically, just a little something to acknowledge you for all your work on this list.
MS: A present, is it something that's going to make me cry?
LA: No, I'm actually interested to know what your response is going to be, and this has been a running joke that we've had for a very long time.
MS: Wait, is this real? Where did this come from? Wait.
LA: I didn't realize it needed to be assembled, so when we were going to the loo on the way down to the studio, I bustled off into the cubicle with my bag because I needed to put it together.
MS: Is that why you were like, "I'm going to bring my whole bag down?"
LA: Yes.
MS: Well, that's efficient.
LA: This gift that I'm handing Megan right now is very symbolic of our work together. When Megan first joined Traveler and we were really at the beginning of starting the Women Who Travel universe, Megan immediately raised her hand and was like, "I want to get involved in this crazy enterprise."
MS: I'm

The Tour Groups Empowering Muslim Women Travelers—and Fostering Community
For many practicing Muslim women, finding the right hotel and booking excursions is just one part of planning a vacation. There’s also the search for halal or vegetarian restaurants, pinning mosques with a women’s prayer space to Google Maps, and researching whether a destination is safe for them not just as women, but oftentimes as visibly Muslim women if they wear a hijab or niqab, or want to don a burkini.
