The Female Lead

Welcome to The Female Lead Podcast - a place where women tell their stories and offer us their advice for life. Listening to women and discovering the many different routes to success and fulfilment is at the heart of The Female Lead and it’s what this podcast is all about. The Female Lead is an educational charity, founded by Edwina Dunn, exploring the factors that limit women’s success and fulfilment. By listening to women and understanding them through research and data they aim to influence businesses and government to drive real change. The show is hosted by Bea Appleby, Editor of The Female Lead and author of What Is Feminism? Why do we need it? On the radio, Bea was a regular weekly contributor to The Emma Barnett Show on BBC 5 Live and BBC’s Late Nigth Woman’s Hour.
