To celebrate International Women’s Day 2018, we invited the women of the Roundtable Journal to curate a playlist, and these are their words. “This playlist has been curated with the busy woman in mind. Put this on, get a glass of something soothing, and forget about the fact that most women still pay taxes on their sanitary products.”
