If you are a female founder/ leader, this is the perfect listen for you! This week, me and Karen Winton, the co-founder of Voxo, discuss inherent biases, venture capital, funds, subtle and explicit discrimination against women and most importantly how to resolve these challenges. My aim is to talk about these challenges and their solutions to educate and inspire women.

This week's episode is all about the power of embracing change and more specifically how to embrace change. Particularly now as the pandemic is giving all of us the choice to either embrace the change or remain the same. Me and Feyi Luther, the owner of Wild Fresh, discuss her journey and how someone collectively changes for the better both personally and professionally. 

This week's episode I discuss everything racism with four successful black women. This is the perfect podcast for anyone, regardless of the colour of your skin, gender, class and age because conversations about race are hard but necessary and everyone must do their part to address these issues if we want to see real change. We talk at length about different perspectives, experiences, education around racism, motherhood, and the microaggressions in the UK.

We continuously face challenges and uncertainty on a daily basis, in fact, it is pretty much guaranteed to happen regardless of our circumstance and success.
