Gender Stereotypes

When it’s impossible to escape the stereotypes, labels and expectations placed upon an individual by a patriarchal society, how do you throw off those shackles, do what you love and own who you are?

‘People don’t look at me and think I can do drilling. People don’t look at me and think I’m a race car driver, right? People don’t look at people like me and automatically think I can do anything.’

‘After having this feeling for 29 and a half years there was something ‘wrong with me’… oh hang on no, it’s just that I’m a bit different to what people expected.'

‘You’re a human being and you may be the human being that can change a company or the world.’

‘A big part of strength is knowing who you are as a person and being really sure of that, no matter what that is. It took me the best part of 29 years to figure that out and I’m still figuring it out.’
