About this listen

In this episode of The SAFE Leader Podcast, Mark McBride-Wright sits down with Alex Knight, an award-winning engineer, social entrepreneur, and founder of STEMAZING. From a self-described “shy ginger kid” who avoided the spotlight to a national role model for women in STEM, Alex shares her deeply personal journey of courage, visibility, and purpose. She talks about leaving behind a secure engineering career to create a social enterprise dedicated to inspiring the next generation, and how being visible can ignite real change.

Together, Mark and Alex explore the power of authentic leadership, collaboration over competition, and why breaking down barriers in STEM begins with empowering people to find their voice. Whether you’re an engineer, educator, or leader seeking to make a difference, this conversation will remind you that courage doesn’t wait for confidence, it creates it.
