This is your Women's Stories podcast.

Welcome to Women’s Stories, where we celebrate the power of women’s resilience, one voice at a time.

Tonight, I want to share a tapestry of themes that will guide this podcast, each grounded in real women whose lives prove that resilience is not theory, it is daily practice.

First, there is the theme of rising from violence and silencing. Malala Yousafzai’s journey from being shot by the Taliban in Pakistan to becoming the youngest Nobel Peace Prize laureate shows what it means to refuse to back down when your voice is threatened. Her story grounds a powerful theme: girls who keep learning, speaking, and leading, even when the world tells them to disappear.

Another theme is breaking barriers in the sky and on the ground. Amelia Earhart, the first woman to fly solo across the Atlantic Ocean, and Bessie Coleman, the first Black and Native American woman to earn a pilot’s license in France, both faced men who said, “This isn’t for you.” They answered with flight plans. Here, resilience is about daring to step into spaces where women were never meant to belong and staying until the world adjusts.

We will also explore the resilience of women who turned personal trauma into global impact. Oprah Winfrey’s path from childhood abuse and poverty in Mississippi to building Harpo Productions and the Oprah Winfrey Network is a blueprint in transforming pain into purpose. According to many biographical profiles, Oprah’s willingness to speak openly about her past gave millions of women permission to name their own.

Another essential theme is resistance as everyday courage. Harriet Tubman risked her life again and again, leading enslaved people to freedom along the Underground Railroad. Wangari Maathai in Kenya planted trees and, with them, a movement for democracy and women’s rights through the Green Belt Movement. Their resilience is not only survival, it is strategic, organized defiance in the service of collective liberation.

We will dive into disability and radical possibility through voices like Helen Keller, who was deaf and blind yet became an author, activist, and lecturer, proving that communication is more than what we see or hear. Her life opens a theme around women who rebuild identity after illness, injury, or loss, like the many modern women featured in resilience blogs and podcasts who adapt to life after amputation, chronic illness, or grief and still create joy.

There is also the theme of redefining power in public life. Michelle Obama, in her memoir Becoming, shares how a girl from the South Side of Chicago navigated self-doubt, racism, and intense public scrutiny to become a global advocate for girls’ education and healthy families. Billie Jean King turned a tennis match, the “Battle of the Sexes,” into a cultural moment that asked the world to take women’s athleticism seriously and pay them fairly.

Finally, we will highlight quiet resilience: mothers like Mary Chacko Russell and Dr. Dorothy Dunning Chacko, described in Liz Brunner’s reflections, who worked in social service and medicine while navigating prejudice and limited opportunities. These are the stories of women who change the world not from a stage, but from living rooms, clinics, classrooms, and community centers.

Across upcoming episodes, Women’s Stories will return to these themes: surviving silencing, breaking barriers, transforming trauma, everyday resistance, rebuilding after loss, redefining power, and honoring quiet, intergenerational strength. Each theme will be anchored in real women from every corner of the globe, and in the lives of women you may know personally.

This is your Women's Stories podcast.

Imagine this: you're trapped in a blazing bushfire in the Australian outback, flames roaring like a beast, scorching over 65 percent of your body. That's where Turia Pitt found herself in 2011, running a ultramarathon in Kimberley when disaster struck. Doctors gave her little chance, but Turia fought back with a fire in her soul that no inferno could touch. Today, she's a motivational speaker, author of "Everything All at Once," and mother, proving that resilience isn't about avoiding pain—it's about rising from its ashes, stronger, bolder, unbreakable.

Listeners, welcome to Women's Stories, where we celebrate the fierce hearts of women who turn trials into triumphs. Picture Malala Yousafzai, the young Pakistani activist shot by the Taliban at 15 for daring to demand education for girls in Swat Valley. She awoke from a coma in Birmingham, England, and didn't whisper defeat—she roared for change. By 17, she became the youngest Nobel Peace Prize winner, founding the Malala Fund to educate millions. Malala teaches us: one voice, silenced once, can echo worldwide, shattering chains of oppression.

Then there's Harriet Tubman, born into slavery on a Maryland plantation in 1822. Risking her life 13 times, she led 70 souls to freedom via the Underground Railroad, navigating secret routes from the American South to Canada. Despite a head injury from her enslaver and a massive bounty on her head, Harriet never faltered. She became an abolitionist, spy for the Union Army, and women's suffrage leader, whispering to her followers, "If you hear the dogs, keep going. If you see the torches in the woods, keep going." Her grit reminds us: freedom is claimed, not given.

Fast forward to Wangari Maathai in Kenya, who in 1977 planted seven trees to fight deforestation around her village. Mocked by men in power, beaten, imprisoned—she founded the Green Belt Movement, rallying 900,000 women to plant over 51 million trees. In 2004, she claimed Africa's first Nobel Peace Prize for women, linking environment, democracy, and women's rights. Wangari showed that roots dug deep in adversity bloom into forests of change.

And don't forget Lorene VanLeeuwen, who at 105 still taps her iPad in her small American town, sharing wisdom with great-great-grandkids on Facebook. Born in the Great Depression, she shattered norms as teacher, secretary, postmaster—then at 89, dove into college for computers. These women—real forces like Bessie Coleman soaring past racism as the first Black licensed pilot in France, or Billie Jean King crushing Bobby Riggs in the 1973 Battle of the Sexes at Houston Astrodome—embody our theme: resilience.

Listeners, their stories ignite ours. Whatever fire you're facing, channel that unbreakable spirit. You've got this—empowered, resilient, unstoppable.

This is your Women's Stories podcast.

Welcome to Women’s Stories, where we dive straight into the heart of resilience and women’s empowerment.

When we talk about resilience, I want you to picture Malala Yousafzai in Pakistan, refusing to give up her right to learn even after surviving an attack. Her story offers one powerful theme for this podcast: education against all odds. We hear from women who fought to stay in school, return to college at 50, or teach girls in communities where classrooms are still a radical idea.

Then there is economic resilience. Think of Wangari Maathai in Kenya, planting trees while building a movement for democracy and women’s rights. That opens a theme around women rebuilding their lives through entrepreneurship, side hustles, and financial independence after divorce, war, or displacement.

Another theme is breaking barriers in male-dominated spaces. Bessie Coleman, the first African American and Native American woman pilot, earned her license in France when flight schools in the United States shut their doors on her. Imagine episodes following women who are the only female engineers on a construction site, the first women in their family to run a farm, or coders in global tech hubs creating space for others at the table.

We can also center healing from trauma and mental health struggles. Nina Sossamon-Pogue’s journey through situational PTSD, described on Liz Brunner’s platform, shows how connection and purpose help women rebuild. That leads us to stories of survivors of domestic violence, refugees like Sana Mustafa who fled Syria, or women navigating grief and still choosing hope.

Motherhood and reinvention is another rich thread. From J.K. Rowling writing Harry Potter as a single mother in the United Kingdom to countless unnamed moms launching businesses during naptime, we explore resilience at the intersection of caregiving, ambition, and identity.

Sport and body resilience offer their own theme. Billie Jean King facing Bobby Riggs in the “Battle of the Sexes,” and para-athletes learning a new body after injury, allow conversations about strength, aging, disability, and the courage to stay in the game on your own terms.

We can turn to community resilience too. Midwives like Gloria Marina Icu Puluc in Guatemala train women about health and rights while delivering babies in rural villages. Episodes here follow activists, organizers, and quiet community leaders who prove that changing one neighborhood can echo across generations.

Finally, we explore quiet everyday resilience: grandmothers raising grandchildren, immigrants starting over in new cities, women caring for elders while still daring to chase one personal dream. These are not headlines, but they are blueprints for courage.

Each of these themes becomes a doorway into a life, a lesson, and a reminder that resilience is not about never breaking, it is about how we rise, again and again.

Welcome to Women’s Stories, the podcast where resilience is our through line and women’s voices set the tone.

Today I want to share a living brainstorm with you, a tapestry of themes that can shape this show into a home for every kind of comeback. Think of this as a map of future episodes, each theme rooted in real women’s lives, from Malala Yousafzai challenging the Taliban for a girl’s right to learn, to Oprah Winfrey rising from poverty and trauma to build a global media empire.

One powerful theme is resilience against the odds in education and leadership. According to the Nobel Prize organization, Malala Yousafzai survived an assassination attempt and still chose the microphone over silence. Her story opens the door to teachers, first‑generation college students, and community organizers who refuse to let circumstance dictate their ceiling.

Another theme is breaking barriers in law, politics, and public life. The United States Supreme Court archives describe how Ruth Bader Ginsburg spent decades dismantling gender discrimination case by case. Under this theme, we can hear from women judges, city council members, and grassroots advocates redefining power from the inside out.

We can’t talk resilience without talking civil rights and social justice. The Library of Congress details how Rosa Parks’ decision to stay seated on a Montgomery bus sparked a movement that changed American history. Imagine episodes where women of color, migrants, and refugees share how they turn everyday acts of defiance into long‑term change.

There is also transformational healing and survival. Oprah Winfrey’s biography, documented by the Academy of Achievement, traces her journey from childhood abuse to becoming one of the most influential women in the world. Here we highlight women healing from violence, addiction, burnout, and grief, reclaiming their bodies, minds, and voices.

Another theme is economic resilience and entrepreneurship. Women’s World Banking reports that financial independence is one of the strongest predictors of women’s long‑term security. We can spotlight street vendors, tech founders, single mothers, and late‑bloomer business owners who turned debt, layoffs, or divorce into launchpads.

We will explore intergenerational resilience too. Stories like educator Lorene VanLeeuwen, who according to LHH learned computers in her late eighties and now connects with family online at over one hundred years old, remind us it is never too late to begin again. Under this theme, grandmothers, aunties, and daughters share how wisdom and courage are passed down.

Global grassroots leadership is another rich thread. The Global Fund for Women has profiled leaders like Cynthia Muhonja in Kenya and Gloria Marina Icu Puluc in Guatemala, women using education and midwifery to transform entire communities. Their stories invite us to hear from women building change far from the spotlight.

And finally, everyday resilience: the nurse finishing night shift and still studying, the immigrant learning a new language at forty, the athlete rebuilding after injury. Research from the American Psychological Association shows resilience is not a rare trait; it is a set of skills that can be learned. These stories remind listeners that their own lives are worthy of the mic.

Every episode of Women’s Stories will live inside one or more of these themes, but the heartbeat will always be the same: women falling down, getting up, and reaching back to pull someone else with them.

This is your Women's Stories podcast.

Welcome to Women's Stories, where we celebrate the extraordinary resilience of women who have transformed their lives and inspired countless others. Today we're exploring the powerful themes that define women's empowerment and the stories that shape our world.

Let's begin with resilience in the face of unimaginable adversity. Consider Turia Pitt, an Australian woman who survived a devastating bushfire and fought an extensive battle to overcome her injuries. Today she stands as a public figure who openly shares her story, reminding us that while we cannot always control life's events, we absolutely control our response to them. Her fighting spirit teaches listeners that setbacks don't define our future, our choices do.

Then there's the theme of education as liberation. Malala Yousafzai, a Pakistani activist, captured the world's attention with her unwavering commitment to female education despite being targeted by the Taliban for her advocacy. She refused to be silenced, becoming a global symbol of courage. Her journey demonstrates that knowledge is power and that education remains one of the most transformative forces available to women worldwide.

Breaking barriers in male-dominated spaces gives us Ruth Bader Ginsburg, whose tireless advocacy for gender equality transformed the legal landscape in the United States. As only the second woman to serve on the Supreme Court, she fought against discriminatory laws and societal norms. Her landmark cases continue to inspire women to pursue careers in law and beyond, showing that persistence in pursuit of justice creates lasting change.

We cannot overlook the theme of civil rights and simple acts of defiance. Rosa Parks' courageous stand on a segregated bus in Montgomery, Alabama sparked a revolution in the Civil Rights Movement. On December first, nineteen fifty-five, she refused to give up her seat, an act that led to the Montgomery Bus Boycott and changed the trajectory of American history. Her legacy as the mother of the Civil Rights Movement continues to inspire generations.

The theme of rising from poverty to influence appears in Oprah Winfrey's remarkable journey. Despite enduring poverty and abuse, her determination propelled her to unprecedented success. Through her talk show, magazine, and production company, she became one of the most influential women in the world, using her platform to uplift and empower others across the globe.

Finally, consider the theme of lifelong learning and adaptation. Stories like that of women who taught themselves new skills at advanced ages remind us that growth has no deadline. These narratives show that whether breaking into industries, overcoming cultural barriers, or simply asserting the right to be heard, women demonstrate that resilience knows no bounds.

These themes of education, breaking barriers, standing up for justice, rising above circumstances, and continuous growth form the foundation of women's empowerment stories. They remind listeners that we all possess the strength to overcome obstacles and create meaningful change in our lives and communities.

Welcome to Women's Stories, the podcast where we celebrate the incredible journeys of women who refuse to be defined by their circumstances. Today we're exploring the powerful themes that resonate through the stories of resilient women everywhere, and trust me, these narratives will shift how you see strength itself.

Let's start with the theme of breaking barriers in male-dominated spaces. When women push into industries that have historically excluded them, they're not just changing their own lives, they're rewriting entire industries. Think of the doctors and medical professionals who've turned their personal health crises into platforms for change. Dr. Nancy Zegarra faced a breast cancer diagnosis and suddenly found herself on the other side of medicine as a patient. That perspective shift transformed how she relates to her own patients. Similarly, Dr. Liza Johannesson, as part of the uterus transplant clinical trial team, has dedicated herself to restoring hope and motherhood for women facing infertility. These aren't just career stories, they're stories of women weaponizing their expertise to uplift others.

Then there's the theme of fighting through rare diagnoses and chronic conditions. Chelsea was only twelve when she learned she had Ehlers-Danlos syndrome, a rare and incurable heart condition. Rather than letting that define her limitations, she pursued cardiovascular care specifically because of what she was living with. Her determination to help others shows us that our deepest struggles often become our greatest callings. And at just twenty-one, Mia is battling breast cancer while igniting hope for others through her candid reflections about her journey. These young women are teaching us that age doesn't determine resilience.

We also see the theme of turning personal pain into community advocacy. Jennifer received a Stage Four inflammatory breast cancer diagnosis with no warning, no lump, no tumor. But instead of retreating into her illness, she founded a support group and now advocates fiercely with the motto that love is greater than cancer. This transforms individual suffering into collective strength.

Another powerful theme emerging from women's stories is wellness and chronic pain recovery. After overcoming chronic ankle pain, Lindsey embarked on an unstoppable wellness journey, losing sixty-five pounds while maintaining a positive attitude that became contagious to everyone around her. Her story reminds us that resilience isn't always about fighting something external, sometimes it's about reclaiming your own body and your own life.

Globally, we see women challenging societal expectations in profound ways. Malala Yousafzai refused to be silenced by the Taliban, becoming a symbol of courage and resilience for education access. And Oprah Winfrey's transformation from poverty and abuse to becoming a powerhouse media mogul shows us that your starting point never determines your destination.

These themes circle back to something essential: resilience isn't about having an extraordinary life, it's about rising extraordinary from an ordinary struggle. It's about the everyday women refusing to be broken by what breaks them.

This is your Women's Stories podcast.

My name is Amina, and I grew up in Nairobi, Kenya, in a neighborhood where girls were often told their place was at home, not in classrooms or boardrooms. I remember sitting on the floor of our small house, listening to my mother whisper stories of women who refused to be small. Women like Wangari Maathai, who planted trees across Kenya and stood up to powerful forces, teaching us that caring for the earth is also an act of courage. Her story wasn’t just about trees; it was about roots—about how deeply a woman can grow when she refuses to be uprooted.

Later, through Akili Dada’s scholarship and leadership program, I met Cynthia Muhonja, a young woman whose fire for equality burned brighter than any obstacle. She wasn’t born a leader; she became one by choosing to show up, again and again, even when the world said no. Her journey taught me that resilience isn’t about never breaking—it’s about learning how to piece yourself back together with purpose.

I’ve also carried with me the story of Malala Yousafzai, shot by the Taliban at fifteen for daring to want an education. Yet she didn’t retreat. She stood taller, louder, and turned her pain into a global movement for girls’ rights. And then there’s Oprah Winfrey, who rose from poverty and trauma in Mississippi to become a voice that echoes in homes from Chicago to Cairo, proving that your past doesn’t have to be your future.

These women, and so many others, show us that resilience takes many forms. It’s Harriet Tubman walking through the dark, guiding others to freedom. It’s Billie Jean King stepping onto the tennis court in 1973 to face Bobby Riggs, not just to win a match, but to challenge an entire culture that doubted women’s strength. It’s Audre Lorde writing with fierce honesty about race, gender, and sexuality, reminding us that speaking your truth is an act of resistance.

For this podcast, Women’s Stories, I want to explore themes that honor this resilience. We’ll dive into stories of women who broke into male-dominated fields, like Bessie Coleman, the first African American woman to earn a pilot’s license, who had to go to France because no American flight school would train her. We’ll talk about women who rebuilt after war, like the courageous members of ACOTCHI in Guatemala, midwives who heal bodies and teach women about their rights. We’ll share stories of mothers like J.K. Rowling, who wrote Harry Potter as a single parent on welfare, and of activists like Greta Thunberg, who turned anxiety into a global climate movement.

We’ll explore how women navigate cultural expectations, how they heal from trauma, how they lead in business, in politics, in their communities. We’ll talk about financial independence, mental health, and the quiet, daily courage of showing up as your true self.

Now I'll create an engaging single-person narrative podcast script based on the research about women's resilience and empowerment stories.

Welcome to Women's Stories, the podcast where we celebrate the incredible journeys of women who refused to be defined by their circumstances. Today we're diving into themes that make up the backbone of resilience, because every single one of you listening has the power to transform your life story.

Let's start with overcoming adversity. Think about Malala Yousafzai from Pakistan, a young woman who stood up against the Taliban for her right to education. She was targeted, threatened, nearly silenced, but she refused to let fear write her narrative. Malala's story teaches us that resilience isn't about never falling. It's about standing up with fire in your eyes. When you face barriers that society puts in your path, remember that your voice matters more than the obstacles before you.

Then there's the theme of breaking generational cycles. Many women find themselves trapped in patterns passed down through families, whether that's financial hardship, trauma, or limited opportunities. But transformation happens when we decide enough is enough. The work isn't easy. It requires courage to be the first in your family to pursue education, start a business, or seek healing. But when you do it, you're not just changing your life. You're creating a blueprint for the generations that come after you.

Career and leadership journeys deserve their own spotlight. Women like Oprah Winfrey show us something powerful. She grew up in poverty and faced tremendous obstacles, yet she didn't let her starting point determine her ending point. She built an empire. She used her platform to lift other women. That's what true leadership looks like. It's not about climbing alone. It's about reaching back and helping others climb too.

Another essential theme is finding strength in community. When we share our stories, we realize we're not alone. Cynthia Muhonja from Kenya became an advocate for women's equality through programs like Akili Dada, a leadership incubator for young African women. Gloria Marina Icu Puluc in Guatemala uses her skills as a midwife to teach women about their rights. These women found power in standing together, in showing up for each other, in creating spaces where women could heal and grow.

Health and wellness journeys deserve recognition too. Lindsey overcame chronic pain and lost sixty five pounds, but her real victory was reclaiming her life. That's what these stories teach us. Whether you're battling a diagnosis, managing your mental health, or learning to love yourself, that journey is worthy of celebration.

Financial independence and economic empowerment are revolutionizing how women see their futures. When women control their financial destinies, they control their freedom. That could mean starting your own business, investing in yourself, or making career choices that honor your values.

Finally, there's the theme of redefining what success means for you personally. It's not about meeting someone else's expectations. It's about asking yourself what truly matters and having the courage to build that life. Michelle Obama's journey reminds us that success looks different for everyone, but it always involves believing in yourself and having people in your corner who believe in you too.

Thank you so much for tuning in to Women's Stories. These themes of resilience, community, breaking barriers, and redefining success are woven through every woman's journey. We need more voices, more stories, more proof that transformation is possible. Subscribe so you don't miss the incredible women we're featuring in future episodes. Your story matters too, and we want to hear it. This has been a quiet please production, for more check out quiet please dot ai.

This is your Women's Stories podcast.

Welcome to Women's Stories, where we celebrate the remarkable journeys of women who refused to let adversity define them. Today, we're exploring the powerful theme of resilience and what it truly means to rise when life pushes you down.

When we think about resilience, we often imagine dramatic moments of triumph. But the real stories are about the quiet strength found in everyday battles. Take Ruth Bader Ginsburg, who fought tirelessly for gender equality as only the second woman to serve on the Supreme Court. Her landmark cases and unwavering commitment to justice didn't just transform the legal landscape in the United States, they opened doors for countless women to pursue careers in law and beyond. She showed us that resilience isn't about never facing discrimination, it's about refusing to accept it.

Then there's Rosa Parks, whose simple act of defiance on a segregated bus in Montgomery, Alabama, on December 1, 1955, became a revolution. She refused to give up her seat to a white passenger, sparking the Montgomery Bus Boycott and igniting the Civil Rights Movement. Her legacy as the mother of the Civil Rights Movement reminds us that sometimes resilience looks like saying no.

But resilience takes many forms. Turia Pitt, an Australian woman who survived a devastating bushfire, fought an extensive battle to overcome her injuries and became a public figure who openly shares her story to inspire others. She teaches us that although we cannot always control the events in our life, we can absolutely control our reaction to them.

Consider Helen Keller, who became deaf and blind as a young child but refused to let those circumstances limit her potential. She became the first deaf-blind person to earn a bachelor's degree from Radcliffe College, proving that the human spirit has an extraordinary capacity to overcome obstacles.

The stories of women in healthcare shine brightly too. Mia, a twenty-one-year-old breast cancer warrior, ignites hope for others through her candid reflections about her journey. Jennifer, who faced a rare Stage Four inflammatory breast cancer diagnosis with no lump or warning, started a support group to help others facing the same battle, turning her pain into purpose with the motto that love is greater than cancer.

What connects all these women is not their circumstances, but their choice to transform their adversity into strength. Oprah Winfrey rose from poverty and abuse to become one of the most influential women in the world. Malala Yousafzai refused to be silenced by the Taliban and became a global symbol of courage for female education. Each of these women teaches us that resilience is not about having an easy path, it's about choosing to walk forward even when the path is impossible.

These stories remind us that within each of us lives the same capacity for resilience, determination, and unwavering belief in ourselves. The obstacles we face do not define our futures, our response to them does.

Welcome to Women's Stories, the podcast where we celebrate the extraordinary resilience of women who refuse to be defined by their circumstances. I'm your host, and today we're exploring the themes that make these stories so profoundly moving.

Resilience takes many forms, and one of the most compelling themes is overcoming physical adversity. Consider Bessie Coleman, who became the first African-American woman and first Native American woman to earn a pilot's license in 1921. Despite facing rampant racism and sexism in the aviation industry, she pursued her dream with unwavering determination and became a pioneering stunt pilot. Her story teaches us that barriers exist not to stop us, but to test our commitment to what we believe in.

Another powerful theme is turning personal struggle into advocacy. Jennifer's journey with Stage Four inflammatory breast cancer inspired her to start a support group and become an advocate, embracing the motto that love transcends cancer. When women channel their pain into purpose, they create ripples of hope that extend far beyond their own healing.

Mental and emotional resilience also deserves our attention. Wangari Maathai of Kenya fought to protect the environment and promote democracy while advocating for women's rights. She became the first African woman to win the Nobel Peace Prize by standing up to powerful forces and refusing to back down. Her legacy reminds us that speaking truth to power requires courage that runs deeper than fear.

Education as liberation is another vital theme emerging from women's stories. Malala Yousafzai, a Pakistani activist for female education, captured the world's attention with her unwavering commitment to learning despite being targeted by the Taliban. Her refusal to be silenced transformed her into a global symbol of courage, showing listeners that education is a weapon against oppression.

We cannot discuss resilience without acknowledging transformation against all odds. Oprah Winfrey's journey from poverty and abuse to becoming a powerhouse media mogul demonstrates that where you start does not determine where you finish. Her determination propelled her to unprecedented success, and through her platform, she continues uplifting and empowering others.

There's also the theme of redefining what's possible. Helen Keller became deaf and blind at nineteen months old, yet she was determined to learn and thrive, becoming an author, activist, and lecturer who inspired generations. Her life proves that disability does not diminish ability.

Finally, many inspiring women embody the theme of collaboration and community building. Programs like Akili Dada in Kenya cultivate transformative leadership among young African women, with scholars like Cynthia Muhonja becoming advocates for women's equality and hoping to serve the United Nations.

These themes of overcoming adversity, turning pain into purpose, fighting for justice, pursuing education, transforming circumstances, expanding possibilities, and building community form the backbone of women's resilience stories. Each thread connects listeners to a larger tapestry of female strength and determination.

Thank you so much for tuning in to Women's Stories. We hope these themes inspired you to recognize the resilience within yourself and the women around you.
