S2 Ep3: The Making of Mandu Reid - Segregation, Abortion, Sexual Harassment and Hitchhiking in South Africa

<div><strong>What are the moments that shape us?</strong></div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>In this podcast from The Female Lead, brilliant women talk about the key moments that have made them who they are.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>From massive landmarks to simple everyday inspiration - these are the plot points that have steered their stories. We talk about life-changing opportunities, pivotal relationships, crushing disappointments, turning points and words of wisdom that have stuck with them.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Each woman has chosen a list of moments herself. Some decisive, some accidental, some lucky, but all show us just how rambling our routes in life can be and all helped make the woman who she is today.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>This is the first podcast from The Female Lead, a charity founded by Edwina Dunn exploring the factors that limit women’s success and fulfilment. By listening to women and understanding them through research and data we aim to influence businesses and governments in order to drive real change. The Female Lead is passionate about telling women’s stories and that’s what this podcast is all about!</div>

<div>The show is hosted by Bea Appleby, Editor of The Female Lead and author of<em> What Is Feminism? Why Do we need it?</em> On radio Bea has been a regular contributor to The Emma Barnett Show on BBC5 Live and BBC Late Night Woman’s Hour.</div>
