[What’s the best way to support women?]

Katrina: be there

but really be there listen

don't pretend that you're listening or

don't pretend that it's in between

meetings or you know it's in between a call be there

and if you see someone struggling make

sure you're the one that's holding your

hand up to pick them up.

[Who inspires you?]

K: Majority of the women i know just get up

and get it done, we are powerful and i don't think we

realize as a unity how powerful we are

Text

[Which bias would you like to break?]

K: As an aboriginal woman i find it really

hard that there's a bias that they

assume that we're with aboriginal men

and that they're the ones that commit

violence and i'd like to change the

perception of that.

[What did you learn about women in the pandemic?]

K: That it was hard it was really hard

Um as a single woman it was extremely hard

while you're working from home and

ensuring that your kids get the

education i wasn't just a mom i wasn't

just the taxi driver i wasn't just the cook i

was then on top of a teacher which made

it extremely hard.

[What are you proud of?]

K: the person i am today

wasn't the person i was six years ago

and i'm i'm very proud of what i've

achieved and that was because of women.

[What changes do you want to see in 2022?]

K: A lot more

leaders that are women in our

communities,

i want to be a ceo

i don't know if that's possible but

that's what i'd like to be because i

think that okay i could do this

it's just human kindness.
