This episode is part of our first season, which focused on gender bias in the corporate world. The show has since evolved to focus on women on the front lines of social justice.


Join me as I speak with a remarkable female scientist who has navigated both the scientific and government sectors. She opens up about early career challenges, confronting sexism, and advocating for equal pay. She also emphasizes allyship and diversity's critical role in fostering inclusive STEM environments.

This episode shines a light on advancing gender equity in science, reminding us that while it may seem slow, progress is definitely underway. Whether you’re a woman in STEM or any other industry, our guest’s insights will remind you that you’re not alone, offering us hope for a more inclusive, diverse future.
