After a deserved winter break We Walk The Earth is back with a brand new season and an enhanced team. We are very excited to keep on evolving, creating and sharing our curiosity.

In this episode, Maxima Simons, founder of women’s network Wumanas, aviation pioneer, mother and good friend of the show, joins Sergio Isauro to share her experience of living in a world where archaic attitudes and behaviours towards gender and sexuality continue to dictate many areas — from politics to education to the day-to-day workplace. 

What does it mean to live as a woman in 21st century society? Does discrimination and bias continue to plague our world? Is genuine change happening to redistribute power and create greater equality for minority groups?

Opening up about her life experiences and the discrimination she has faced throughout her career, Maxima has made it her life ambition to shape change across society and empower women to find their voice. Through her mentorship programme, Young Wumanas, Maxima provides a safe space for young women to ask questions and explore their sexuality and rights; giving them the opportunity to re-discover who they are and encouraging them to express themselves through creative thinking. 

The music for this podcast is produced by Tejedor.
