In this episode, I chat with freediver Helena Bourdillon. Helena is an all-round badass and extremely awesome human. She talks about what it is like to be 76 metres underwater and the lessons this teaches for life on the surface. One of my favourite interviews ever.

Gina Glantz describes herself as a ‘serial organiser, shit-stirrer, campaign tech innovator and grandmother’ (now that’s what you call a bio).

After a career in politics, including organising a presidential campaign, Gina tells the remarkable story of co-founding Gender Avenger and working, with a singular determination, to ‘ensure women are represented in the public dialogue’.

Kirsten Walkom in conversation with Hettie Barkworth-Nanton as they discuss the legacy of having had close friends murdered by men.

In this hard hitting discussion (from the start), Kirsten and Hettie (who are both on the Trustee board at domestic violence charity Refuge) discuss media portrayals of male violence, how to tackle femicide and much more.
