This is a podcast for all the girls and women, who've ever worked for an employer or for themselves. I want to hear about your experiences of the workplace, whether it's virtual or a physical place you have to show up to every day and what it's like for you on a day-to-day basis. In the first series of episodes, I share my experience of working in a male-dominated industry in the UK. I worked as a consultant in Building Engineering and after nearly 15 years, I decided to take my talent, my energy, my passion and my motivation to a place where they could be fully realised.
Happy Listening!

    Episode 8 - Special Birthday Edition! - Escaping the Rat Race!

    Episode 8 - Special Birthday Edition! - Escaping the Rat Race!

    In this episode, I respond to a request from a dear friend, whose birthday it is.  I sent him a 2 hour video with really poor sound quality, so I've rerecorded the key milestones that led me out of the 9-5 into a life of passion and purpose which I conceived a long time ago.  

    I talk about working in Engineering in the UK Construction industry, which is the gift that keeps on giving and that will probably end up paying dividends. 

    I talk about the amazing Black women who saved my sanity during the lockdowns and the 15-month period working from home.  I talk about knowing that I had more to offer working for myself than I would ever have been allowed to contribute as a defenseless cog in an intersectional, misogynistic, racist, bigoted and toxic work environment surrounded by enough ill will to keep the National Electricity Grid going, if it had been powered by bad vibes. 

    I talk briefly about the health challenges that shaped my thinking and the projects that I have under way.  

    I mention these stories on Medium: 

    1. Brava Nullipara vs Uterine Fibroids

    2. The Women in Construction Event

    3. My favourite online spaces for Black women

    You'll be able to listen to or read all 3 stories for free, but if you want to join Medium, you can use my referral link: https://medium.com/@cedfowler/membership. 

    Thanks for listening!

    Please drop me a line at podcastingwomen@gmail.com if you have any questions or suggestions for the show. 

    Have a great week!

    Episode 6 - December 2021 and Mindset

    In this episode, I offer a brief recap of my whereabouts in December of 2021 and I share about some of the work I'm doing in the last week of October.   I talk about Cyprus and Turkey as well as travelling back to the Schengen area, a few days before Christmas 2021.  

    I've fixed the podcast banner using Canva. 

    I've learnt a bit more about what it's like interviewing guests, outside of the person that I collaborate with on a regular basis.
