If not you, who? If not now, when? Jenny Dowell’s fearless wisdom.

Épisode 3

vendredi 5 septembre 2025 • Durée 46:04

When Jenny first stepped into local politics, councils were still known as pale, male, and stale. They were dominated by retired men and businessmen who had the time to attend meetings. Women made up just 29% of councillors across New South Wales, and some councils had none at all.

Jenny did not just take a seat at the table, she reshaped it. From championing the arts, reconciliation, and LGBTQ+ rights, to leading with compassion through her own cancer battles, Jenny has shown that brave, authentic leadership can change communities.

In this conversation, Jenny shares her journey into public service, her challenges as mayor, her resilience through illness, and the legacy she continues to build. Her story is a reminder to every woman listening: be brave, your voice matters, and the time is now.

When We Mock Women as Karens We Mock Ourselves | Ep. 35

Épisode 35

mardi 27 janvier 2026 • Durée 11:21

What started as a meme has become a muzzle. The word Karen is now used to shame women into silence, to make us doubt our right to speak up.

In this raw, no-BS episode, Jennifer calls out how this label keeps women small, and how changing our self-talk, language, and even scent rituals can help us reclaim power from the inside out.

It’s time to retire the mockery and rise as women who use our voices, unapologetically, fiercely, and together.

The problem with the "Karen" label @ 0:00

Jennifer discusses how the term "Karen" has evolved from describing entitled behavior to becoming a way to mock and silence women who speak up or challenge the status quo. She argues that this reinforces the idea that there is a "right" and "wrong" way for women to use their voices, and that this undermines women's collective confidence and empowerment.

The power of our self-talk @ 4:29

Jennifer emphasizes how the words we use, even in casual self-deprecation, can have a profound impact on our physiology and self-perception. She encourages reframing negative self-talk with more empowering language, as our bodies and minds respond to the stories we tell ourselves.

Aromatherapy and affirmations as tools @ 8:31

Jennifer discusses how essential oils and affirmations can be used together to help shift our emotional state and self-perception. She recommends specific oils like geranium, rose, frankincense, and sweet orange to address issues like self-judgment, emotional walls, and lack of joy.

Breaking the cycle of self-mockery @ 10:30

Jennifer calls on women to stop participating in the "casual cruelty" of mocking themselves and other women, as this reinforces the idea that women should stay small and quiet. She encourages choosing kinder, more empowering language, as this can help heal something ancient within us and pave the way for women to speak their truth unapologetically.

Recap and key message @ 11:57

The Impact of Anne's Story @ 9:11

Anne's story of solo travel was featured in a local publication, inspiring other women to embark on similar adventures.

The Joys of Dancing @ 20:26

Anne discusses her lifelong passion for dancing, which she shared with her late husband. She explains how dancing has been a source of joy, confidence, and community for her, and how she now teaches dance classes with her new partner, Trevor.

Advice for women embracing their 'crone' years @ 37:06

Redefining gender equality fearlessly with Myra Betron | Ep. 23

Épisode 23

lundi 1 décembre 2025 • Durée 41:50

What does real gender equality look like when we strip away the slogans and get honest about power, choice, and change? Myra Betron has spent two decades leading global gender equality and social impact programs, and now she’s using data to spark deeper conversations through her new venture, PowerHerData. In this raw and inspiring chat, Myra shares how her personal story shaped her purpose, why the world still gets gender equality wrong, and how we can all start dismantling bias, one voice, one choice, one moment at a time.

Myra's background and passion for gender equality @ 0:00

Myra shares that her work in gender equality and social impact was not something she chose, but rather something that chose her. Growing up in a traditional household with domestic violence, she was determined not to live that life and instead dedicated her career over the past 20 years to promoting gender equality and women's empowerment across various organizations and countries.

Launching PowerHerData to share data-driven insights @ 5:03

Myra explains that she started the PowerHerData venture this year as a way to take the research and data she has accumulated over her career and present it in more engaging, accessible ways to drive real change. She was motivated to do this after seeing gender equality work being framed as "ideological" and wanting to better communicate the positive impact of this work.

Challenges in achieving true gender equality @ 10:43

Myra discusses why gender equality programs have not translated into the level of real change desired, noting that the focus has often been on "fixing women" rather than addressing underlying structural issues and power imbalances. She highlights how biases, social norms, and the "boys club" mentality continue to hold women back, even in highly educated and professional settings.

Empowering women to use their voice @ 31:45

Myra emphasizes the importance of challenging gender biases when they arise, even in subtle ways, rather than letting them slide. She encourages listeners to take the gender bias quiz on her PowerHerData website as a starting point for self-reflection and awareness. Myra also shares a personal example of needing to speak up against a comment made by a friend about her choice not to have children.
