    27. LION Filmmaker Faith Musembi on the Hidden Power of Lionesses, Black Women & Community

    What can lionesses teach us about leadership, sacrifice, community and the women who quietly hold everything together? In this episode, we sit down with Kenyan filmmaker Faith Musembi to discuss National Geographic’s four part documentary series LION and the remarkable role lionesses play in Kio’s journey from vulnerable cub to king. Faith opens up about the hidden power structures within lion prides, the sacrifices made by Kio’s mother, Summer, and the parallels she sees between lionesses and generations of African and Black women who have carried families and communities forward. She also shares how her own mother shaped her understanding of sacrifice, why telling wildlife stories through an African perspective matters, and her mission to create opportunities for the next generation of African wildlife filmmakers. It’s a conversation about womanhood, resilience, representation, conservation and what strength really looks like when no one is watching.
