Molly Hammar - Att våga möta sin ensamhet

[This episode is released in Swedish]  Empower W/ Sisters presenterar den omspunna tech-entreprenören Aleksandra Avli, modern till Her Online Network. Hon pratar om hur det är att drivas av förändring, hur pandemin påverkat henne och i en diskussion om huruvida vi människor är inbyggda till att vara egoistiska eller kollektivistiska, bjuder hon in oss till visionen om att bygga något som sträcker sig långt längre än oss själva.

Aleksandra Avli - Är vi egoistiska eller kollektivistiska?

[This episode is released in Swedish] Hon har varit professionell DJ de senaste 10 åren och spelat på stora festivaler över hela världen. När vi träffar henne är hon mitt uppe i att tackla det faktum att Pride har ställts in på grund av Covid-19, en av de viktigaste mötesplatserna för HBTQ-personer. I avsnittet pratar vi om varför community är så viktigt - och varför tiden vi är i inte bara innebär begränsningar utan hur de även luckras upp.  Att vi ska våga lyssna mer och titta mer utanför oss själva för att få förståelse.  Del av filmserien ‘Fyra tankar om tid’, premiär i höst Herminehold.com/fyratankaromtid // Withhoof.com/withsisters --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/withsisters/message

Under detta år står de flesta av oss inför någon form av omställning, och inget är så smärtsamt för människan som en stor och drastisk förändring. För första gången i historien går vi igenom den tillsammans, alla i olika omfattning.  Under hösten 2020 lanserar Hermine Hold en dokumentärserie tillsammans med fyra kreatörer under namnet 'Fyra tankar om tid'. Berättelserna skildrar hur fyra kvinnor påverkas och påverkar under en av vår livstids största kriser och hur de just nu tolkar samtiden. Nu släpper vi säsong två av Empower W/ Sisters som ger oss en inblick till kreatörernas ärliga tankar om tiden.  Del av filmserien ‘Fyra tankar om tid’, premiär i höst Herminehold.com/fyratankaromtid // withhoof.com/withsisters --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/withsisters/message

Contraception Part 1 - Dr. Bergdahl

She is a storyteller and disrupter of the film industry. Ngosa is the producer who likes to tell real stories. Stories with power to change societies. In the episode she describes how her career took off with a documentary screening on Zambia’s national football team at the film festival in Cannes, and what inspires her. She shares how being sexual harassed made her push even more, why she is celibate and her that spreading your values and DNA in something you love does not necessarily mean that has to mean children. She describes herself by her production company name Purple Tembo simply because she sees herself as a majestic creature inspired by the history of matriarchs running through her veins. We can get inspired by Ngosa to put ourselves first more often: “it is sometimes the least selfish thing to do and also, to never stop chasing our dreams, because when you achieve something you’re closer to achieve everything.” --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/withsisters/message

Ngosa Chungu - DREAM! Let your dreams keep you warm at night.

“We have to fight so that the majority that holds the voice brakes.” A loud rebel that like to question rules, that is how Stu describes herself. When she started Zambian Feminists she wanted to create a space for women to tell their stories and to find their voices. And she has definitely found her own. In the episode she talks about how the patriarchy affects women and why we should liberate our bodies and talk more about sex. She speaks up because she is the brave stupid woman who is going to take the fall so that other women can have the liberties she is fighting for. Let Stu inspire you how to flourish in your own essence. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/withsisters/message

Situmbeko Wambulawae (Sto) - My job as a feminist is to make men uncomfortable

A thrift shop they today co-owns and turns into a street market every month gathering business es in Lusaka. . Her advice to anyone with a dream? Just start where you are, and everything will fall into place. In this episode she recognizes topics like rape and body shaming, but also female sexuality: As women we need to own our flame.

Marian Chileshe - You can turn anything into a business

“When you’re on a plane, they tell you to put on the oxygen mask on yourself before you can help someone else. That’s how we should be living our lives. You have to make sure you are okay mentally emotionally, physically, spiritually before you can extend yourself to others” She believes in the power of choice. Herself, she chooses to start conversations through media production and poetry. In this episode she exposes how being sexual assaulted both as a child and as a university student affected her. Why she always uses double contraceptive methods and why she wants to raise awareness about mental health.

Additionally, she includes boys in the discussion to create understanding between the genders, an initiative that invited her to speak in the UN to inspire on the theme.
