About this listen

In this powerful episode of The Voice of Warriors, host Jo Cooper sits down with Sharon Levy, trailblazing lawyer, advocate, and founder of The Haven Nepean Women’s Shelter.


Together, they reflect on Sharon’s journey into law, the landmark case that changed strata laws, and the emotional reality behind a years-long legal battle. Sharon opens up about her motivation to establish The Haven, the profound impact it has had on women and children affected by domestic violence, and the ongoing challenges of sustaining frontline support services.


Their conversation goes beyond the courtroom, exploring the importance of community action, the unique challenges faced by women in the legal profession, and the world today, how recognition through awards can elevate critical social causes.


This episode is both a tribute and a rallying call, reminding us that lasting change is built through courage, leadership, and collective action. Sharon’s vision for a future where shelters like The Haven are no longer needed will stay with you long after the episode ends.
