PROVOKED exists because women over 50 were told to quiet down just as we were getting interesting.
Membership isn’t about unlocking more content; it’s about backing a fiercely independent, women‑owned newsroom that refuses to patronize you, flatten you, or fade you out. It lets us pay writers, go deeper, and say the things other publications won’t.
If PROVOKED has made you feel sharper, more seen, or less alone, I’d be honored to welcome you into our paid community.
— Susan Dabbar, Founder & Editor‑in‑Chief
How does PROVOKED membership work?
PROVOKED offers four membership levels:
Reader (Free) – Access to our Thursday Edition and all published articles.
Member (Monthly or Annual) – Full access to Sunday Edition, live gatherings, book club, and additional benefits.
Founding Member – Everything in the Member plan, plus exclusive Founders benefits and permanent recognition on The Founders Wall.
You can upgrade, downgrade, or cancel at any time from your account dashboard.
Can I cancel anytime?
Yes. You may cancel your membership at any time through your MemberPress account dashboard. Your benefits will remain active until the end of your current billing period.
What is the Sunday Edition?
What are Quarterly Live Gatherings, and are events included in the membership?
Paid members receive access to live online conversations with Susan each quarter, including discussion, behind-the-scenes insights, and live Q&A.
Quarterly live online gatherings are included in paid membership. In-person events may require a separate ticket purchase, but members receive priority access and, when applicable, special pricing.
Can I updgrade or downgrade my membership?
Yes. You can switch between Monthly, Annual, or Founding in your account dashboard.
Upgrades take effect immediately. Downgrades take effect at your next renewal date. Memberships are billed for the full term selected and remain active through that billing period.
