Listen on

Episode notes

Feel the raw emotion and boundless energy as we celebrate the achievements of trailblazing women at the Northern Power Women Awards. Our conversations with remarkable leaders like Joanne Henry from the NIHR and the luminous Natalie Reeves-Billing are not just interviews; they are fearless declarations of ambition and purpose. Joanne, fresh from her Inclusive Innovation Award win, unpacks the shock and elation her team experienced—and how it only fuels their commitment to dismantling health inequalities. Natalie, meanwhile, channels the award's catalytic effect into her mission of enriching children's lives, demonstrating the profound impact recognition can have on individuals dedicated to community upliftment.

Prepare to be inspired by stories of resilience and advocacy from powerhouses like Debra Lawson, who's reshaping the conversation around disability inclusion. As we honor the success of Joanne, Natalie, and Debra, the episode also spotlights the synergy that emerges at award events, where the likes of Chloe and Alexandra Knight share their journeys in revolutionizing job sharing and promoting gender diversity in STEM. Every anecdote shared, every laugh exchanged, underlines the undercurrent of collaboration and the shared drive towards a society where diversity isn't just encouraged—it's celebrated.

Wrapping up this episode, we reflect on the contagious spirit of entrepreneurship and the lift that comes from being acknowledged within your field. Whether it's Haley's disbelief at an industry nod that has amplified her happiness and ambition, or Jane Swimming's candid acknowledgment at an entrepreneurs' lunch, every story resonates with the joy of being seen. This episode isn't just a recap of an awards night; it's a mosaic of powerful narratives that remind us when women come together, uplift each other, and advocate for change, the ripple effect can transform the world.
