Hi Darling! Happy International Women's Day!
In todays episode I am going to discuss what its really like to be a woman working in science, technology, engineering and maths in 2026. Using personal experiences from myself and people in my community I explore the problems and the power that comes with being a gender minority in STEM.
Through stories, survey responses, and honest reflection, we’ll talk about the patterns many women still encounter in scientific workplaces today. From subtle microaggressions and being underestimated, to structural barriers that still exist within academia and industry. But this episode is not just about the problems. It’s also about resilience, community, and the incredible women who continue to shape science despite these challenges.
This conversation is about awareness, accountability, and moving the needle toward a more inclusive scientific culture for everyone.
Whether you work in STEM yourself, support someone who does, or simply care about the future of science, I hope this episode sparks thoughtful conversation and encourages positive change.
Thank you to everyone who shared their experiences for this episode. Your voices matter.
