eSTEAMd Women Ep 43 Enjoy the Spotlight with Ella Podmore
Ella Podmore exudes confidence and boldness through her transparency. It's inspiring to listen to a women who is so comfortable in her own skin, despite the occasional self-doubt and fear in standing-up for herself in a very male-dominated industry. What's most inspiring is that she speaks up anyway, with an attitude of knowing that she has nothing to lose and everything to gain!
Customer Reviews
Insightful
This is an excellent podcast. Thoughtful & considered examination of issues critical to mental wellbeing. Looking inward & understanding yourself, what drives you or hold you back can empower you to find fulfilment & be content with who you are. Through selective reviews of interviews with women in STEM Dr. Shini Somara explores some of the issues that affect us all. We may not reach nirvana but it’s a worthy goal.
Excellent podcast
Have listened to a few, most recently 77 - Chemical Engineering. It’s a very thoughtful and important podcast, I liked the questions and the really mature and considered responses from the interviewer (especially given that she is still a student).
Good work Shini and hope you continue the series in 2020. It’s a great resource and source of encouragement for everyone interested in STEM, and in making it a more diverse and inclusive area to work in.
