Intelligence

International Women’s Day was yesterday and its theme this year has been #ChooseToChallenge

So why are we carrying on for one more day? Because these challenges don’t end on the 9th of March

This is the last episode of the series, but it is a reminder to keep challenging stereotypes, recognising and changing our biases, and moving forward for a better world for ourselves and the women to come.

This conversation discusses intelligence with Linette. This topic has a lot of parallels to physical strength but just the same, we need to stop being worried about intimidating people without intelligence and get it out there in whatever form it takes!

Don’t forget to check out the photos of Linette on this theme on Instagram @suzanne.was.here.

Strength

Today is International Women’s Day!!!! This year is all about #ChooseToChallenge

In this conversation, you will hear from Tiana, a CrossFit athlete, about her experience as a physically strong woman. There are many assumptions made about women who are strong which Tiana has/does face but continues through the world doing what she loves and inspiring little girls every day!

Age

March 8th is International Women’s Day and this year is all about #ChooseToChallenge

This conversation is on Age discrimination. As most things are, it tends to be worse for women - but Sandra will be damned if she’s going to let that keep her down.

As one of the most infectiously wonderful people you’ll come across, Sandra discusses these topics with me from looks to sexuality, money, tradition, and more! We start serious but make sure you come along for the whole ride.

She nailed the stereotype almost as well as the ‘true her’ shot!

Sexuality

March 8th is International Women's Day and this year the theme is #ChooseToChallenge

Lara is the Founder of Elixir Play and has spent far more time than most people thinking openly about women's sexuality and pleasure. In this conversation hear her thoughts on where we can improve on the prejudices help against women for being in touch with their sexuality and how we can improve our pleasure.

Aboriginality

This year, International Women's Day is all about #ChooseToChallenge

If you're Australia, you know the terrible history of our country, but for Aboriginal women, it was even worse because once upon a time.... they were already equal and this has since been stripped.

Listen to Kalli talk about her growth and rediscovery of her culture as a proud First Nations woman!

Motherhood

This year’s International Women’s Day is themed #ChooseToChallenge

There are so many different ways to be a mother and endless opinions on what it takes to do this job in society.

This conversation hears Claire talk about her experiences, some of the expectations and prejudices she has been confronted with, as well as discussing hopes and ways of challenging the future of society to not only make it easier for women and mothers but to help them in the incredibly important responsibility of raising humans.

Leadership

International Women’s Day 2021 is all about #ChooseToChallenge

Equal female leadership is one of the biggest steps we can take towards equality for all women - representation is so important!

But in this conversation, we discuss more than that. We discuss the assumptions made about women who are in leadership, some of the barriers women face in getting into leadership roles, and the everyday acts of leadership we can do whether we want to climb the ladder structure laid or out not.

Victimisation

noun: victimisation

The action of singling someone out for cruel or unjust treatment.

This is a word that has become a point of shame for victims more than the people who are treating them this way - we need to change that. While the numbers of women who have been abused (physically or emotionally) are staggering, women are not defined by the things that have happened to them.

Hear Chloe's story and her path beyond the emotionally abusive relationship she experienced, in this conversation.

Child-Free

International Women’s Day 2021 is all about #ChooseToChallenge

As it becomes increasingly common for women to be child-free or childless in our society, how are we treating these women as other-than and what can we do to challenge these behaviours, unconscious biases and recognise that these circumstances or choices don't define these women.
