Confidently Insecure

She Killed, Conquered, and Claimed the Throne #HtH WU ZETIAN

20 Oct 2025

Description

In this episode of Hoes Throughout History, we dive deep into the unhinged, unstoppable, and undeniably iconic life of Empress Wu Zetian — the first and only female emperor of China. From concubine to supreme ruler of the Tang dynasty, Wu played the political game like a damn chess master while rewriting what it meant to be a woman in power...and the brutal rumors spread by salty men who couldn’t handle her crown. Was she ruthless? Sure. Revolutionary? Absolutely.🎧 Chapters: 00:00 — Introduction to Empress Wu Zetian 03:08 — The Rise of Wu Zhao: From Concubine to Empress 11:55 — Wu Zetian’s Reign: Power, Politics, and Reform 15:59 — The Fall of Wu Zetian: Abdication and LegacySupport this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/confidently-insecure/donationsAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy
