Equivalent Too is a podcast for minorities in STEM. Its a place to discuss issues faced by those who are under represented in science, technology, engineering and mathematics, whether that be for reasons of gender, race, socio-economic background, neurodiversity, physical ability. All are welcome to normalise the barriers encountered by being differences, so that we can indeed make a positive difference through our differences.

My guest this week travel to remote and extreme places for a living. When she's out doing her science, she goes into 'expedition' mode, which means she has to forget about what is going on at home. This involves a huge amount of trust and understanding, both from her partner and from her - as this is not the way stereotypical women behave. Women are expected to prioritise families.
My guest challenges these stereotypes, through her career, because she has always been so passionate and curious about the world around her. She confidently makes her own decisions based on her gut instinct and following her heart and what comes with that territory is taking responsibility for your own decisions.
