About the Episode
Charlotte combines two of her favourite things – awesome women and science – and talks about some incredible women of STEM throughout history: Ada Lovelace (1815—1852), Marie Stopes (1880—1958), and Wang Zhenyi (1768—1797).
These women made huge advancements in various scientific fields, from computer programming and astronomy to women’s reproductive health.
We hope women like these encourage you to go out there and thrive in the world of STEM. And if the men are trying to get you down, know that you can do it, and you might even become a trailblazer yourself!
