    Emma Grede: Other People’s Opinions Are Not My Business

    Emma Grede has built some of the most influential brands of the modern era, but behind the businesses and boardroom is a woman who has never been afraid to question who gets to lead, who’s allowed to speak openly about ambition, or to take up space. In this episode of Sisters of Defiance, Anita sits down with Emma to talk about power, money, motherhood, resilience, and the defining moments that shaped her extraordinary rise. From growing up in East London to building global brands and becoming one of the most respected entrepreneurs in business, Emma reflects on the risks she took and the mindset that helped her forge her own path on her own terms. This is a conversation about what happens when women stop apologising for wanting more and start owning their ambition without shame. This one is for anyone ready to think bigger.

    Meera Syal: The Thing That Made Me Lonely IS My Superpower

    Dame Meera Syal has graced our screens, bookshelves, and stages for decades - but behind the wit, brilliance, and groundbreaking work is a woman who has spent her life quietly and powerfully defying expectations. In the very first episode of Sisters of Defiance, Anita sits down with Meera to talk about identity, ambition, belonging, and what it meant to grow up feeling caught between cultures while trying to forge a path that didn’t yet exist for women like her. From the creation of Goodness Gracious Me and The Kumars at No. 42 to navigating a divorce in a culture which views it as deeply shameful, Meera reflects on the highs, the challenges, the moments that shaped her voice, and all the work still to come. If you can’t be what you can’t see, thank god Anita saw Meera aged 14. This one is personal.

    Introducing Sisters of Defiance, with Anita Rani

    What happens when women stop playing safe? In Sisters of Defiance nourished by Ancient + Brave, Anita Rani sits down with extraordinary women who have challenged expectations, broken rules, taken risks and refused to live according to anybody else’s idea of who they should be. Through honest, joyful conversations, guests reflect on the moments that made them: the first acts of defiance, the failures, the turning points, and what it really took to keep going when life got complicated. Here we celebrate women who’ve gone their own way, who have taken the reins and pushed for change. This is about sharing wisdom passed down through generations, and hearing from women who have been bold enough to say ‘no’ and ‘yes’ when it matters most.  To all the former little girls who refused to sit quietly in the corner looking pretty: this is your invitation to live life on your own terms. All 10 episodes of Series 1 will drop weekly on Tuesdays.  And if you've got thoughts, questions and comments, you can email us at: hello@sistersofdefiance.com Sisters of Defiance is nourished by Ancient & Brave https://ancientandbrave.earth/pages/planet  Presented by Anita Rani Producer: Flossie Barratt Technical Producer / Editor: Will Gibson Smith Social Media Manager: Anna Richmond Sisters of Defiance is an Illuminaunty production.
