La rage de réussir avec Paoline Ekambi

Season 1 · Episode 93

Friday, June 17, 2022 • Duration 30:14

Paoline Ekambi est la présidente et fondatrice de Sportail Community, une entreprise de l'économie sociale et solidaire. Elle a été joueuse de basket professionnelle pendant 18 ans, dont 13 ans dans l’équipe française.

Pour Paoline, le sport est avant tout une passion qui lui a offert une ouverture sur le monde, une connaissance d’elle-même, des valeurs, des voyages et des amitiés, comme elle le raconte dans cette interview. A 14 ans, elle intègre un parcours scolaire qui lui permet de mener à bien le sport et ses études, un moment qu’elle décrit comme une opportunité pour elle qui vient de vivre le traumatisme de l’inceste par son père.

Cette rage de réussir et de combattre lui viennent notamment de ces moments difficiles. Grâce à ses entraîneurs et sa famille de coeur, elle parvient à surmonter ses circonstances personnelles, mène une carrière sportive de haut niveau et fonde il y a quelques années Sportail Community, pour aider les sportifs en fin de parcours dans leur processus de transition professionnelle.
En effet, les sportifs de haut niveau ont un savoir-faire et un savoir-être qui intéressent beaucoup les entreprises et Sportail Community les conseille pour identifier et recruter des talents hors du commun.

Aujourd’hui Paoline finit d’écrire son livre et partage son expérience avec d’autres femmes victimes de violences.

Protecting marine megafauna in Bangladesh with Elisabeth Fahrni Mansur

Season 1 · Episode 92

Thursday, May 26, 2022 • Duration 28:47

Elisabeth is the Senior Manager of the Marine Conservation Program of the Wildlife Conservation Society (WCS) in Bangladesh. Her main focus is on protecting threatened marine megafauna.

Elisabeth grew up in Switzerland and started her career as a teacher. In 2002, she moved to Bangladesh, married a Bangladeshi and ‘fell into’ conservation work. When she was working as a tour guide in the Sundarban forest, she and her husband became aware of the lack of protection of aquatic ecosystems in Bangladesh. Thanks to her encounter with Brian Smith, a mentor from the Wildlife Conservation Society, she began a program for protecting threatened marine megafauna. She talks in detail about the successes of the program, both in protecting the megafauna and in obtaining the support of the local people.

Although there are difficulties in living in Bangladesh, Elisabeth finds that there is a lot of space for creativity and innovation and the freedom to try things out. She also takes great pride in the growing conservation movement and is a strong supporter of the professional development of people who are interested and keen in pursuing this career.

Become a speaker with Getrude Matshe

Season 1 · Episode 90

Wednesday, May 18, 2022 • Duration 43:23

Getrude Matshe was born in Zimbabwe and grew up in London and New Zealand. Her main activity is her company ‘Her Story Circle’ and she is also a writer, a coach and a textile artist.

Getrude is a life force. She is aligned with her gifts and follows her intuition - she has had an incredible life! She was not afraid to quit a job with no Plan B and 3 children to feed and she is always coming up with new business ideas!

After a period of depression and a strange accident, Getrude set up Women Circles ‘to bring women together to share their stories, to inspire, to motivate and to be the light at the end of somebody else's tunnel’. She posted her business idea on Facebook and it went viral.

She also mentors women on how to speak and her idea evolved into a social impact movement with a vision that every woman who comes to the platform is not only coming to speak, she is coming to teach. Getrude curates all of these stories through her publishing company into a series of books. She harnesses women's intellectual ideas and helps repackage and sell them.

She has also been hired to set up women's cooperatives throughout Africa.
In South Africa, for example, the women make necklaces with beads, then take a picture of themselves with the art piece and their story and send it to Getrude on WhatsApp. Then she sells the necklaces through her website and people get to meet the woman who's made the necklace. This also cuts out the middleman so the money benefit the families directly.

She has many other activities, including advocating against FGM.

Podcasting original plays with Diane Quinn

Season 1 · Episode 89

Wednesday, May 18, 2022 • Duration 46:56

Diane Quinn is the co-founder and artistic director of ‘Unseen Theatre’, an audio podcast showcasing original plays featuring female protagonists.
She is also a professional dancer, singer, actor, choreographer, director, company manager and playwright.

Diane trained in ballet as a child and then went into musical theatre, regional and national theatre and film and television. Eventually, through dancing and singing and focusing on the musical aspect of her career, she transitioned into becoming an actor.

She always knew that she wanted to perform in character because she loved reading plays as a child and enjoys inhabiting character and learning about the lives that she hasn’t led.

Her latest project, ‘Unseen Theatre’, is an audio podcast that showcases original plays that have not yet been produced. They all have a female protagonist. She wanted to share female stories and the different perspective a female has when going through life. The plays also deal with various current political issues.

Diane really loves an audio format as it allows the imagination to be activated. Most importantly, she wanted to be involved in something that was accessible to a large group of people regardless of location, financial situation and mobility.

‘Unseen Theatre’ is available in all podcast platforms.

'Arracher sa place' avec la rappeuse tunisienne Medusa Tn

Season 1 · Episode 88

Thursday, April 28, 2022 • Duration 39:17

Medusa Tn est une rappeuse tunisienne qui s’est faite connaître pendant le printemps arabe avec son titre ‘Tounsiya Fière De L'être’. Aujourd'hui elle habite en Île-de-France où elle poursuit ses études d'ingénieur.

Initialement elle a voulu rapper pour donner le point de vue d’une femme tunisienne dans un contexte où il n’y avait que des rappeurs hommes. Elle aborde des sujets politiques et sociaux mais toujours d’un point de vue féministe. Son message et ses chansons sont devenus un porte voix pour beaucoup de femmes dans le monde arabe, en particulier pendant le printemps arabe.

Medusa n’a pas froid aux yeux : elle a notamment créé un flash mob avec une association de défense du droit à l’avortement des femmes en Tunisie dans un contexte politique difficile et dangereux.

Medusa est aussi maman et passionnée par les nouvelles technologies. Tout en poursuivant ses études d’ingénieur, elle continue la scène et travaille sur un nouvel album.

Le message qu’elle voudrait faire passer aux femmes est d’être unies dans leur féminisme et d’arracher leur place, ce qu’elle a fait avec un courage exceptionnel à découvrir dans son interview!

Je serai ravie de savoir ce que vous pensez de cet épisode et de répondre à vos questions éventuelles. Vous pouvez me trouver sur Linkedin, la page Brave New Women de Facebook ou sur mon site web.

Mentoring and finding your joy with Pamela Johnson

Season 1 · Episode 87

Friday, April 22, 2022 • Duration 32:43

Pamela was the director of learning and development at Freddie Mac and a mentor for many. She is now an instructional designer and continues to act as a mentor.

Helping and advising people brings a lot of joy to Pamela, so it’s no surprise that she found herself mentoring people quite organically.

In the corporate world, people tend to use mentoring as a tool to jump to the next level. For Pamela, advancement comes naturally when you find your joy and your niche at work.

As she puts it: ‘It would be really nice if for young people, we could change that paradigm, to think what's going to bring you true pleasure and satisfaction. And pursue that and not worry so much about whether or not it's going to bring you material things or prestige’.

She would love to see women advocating for themselves, taking leaps of faith and being braver. She is living her talk and recently left her position at Freddie Mac. Guess what? Her new opportunity as an instructional designer kind of fell into her lap!
