The one where we realise strong women are always learning
Emma and Nicole speak to award-winning journalist, author and competitive powerlifter, Poorna Bell about her new book Stronger: Changing Everything I Knew About Women’s Strength. We discuss the shift in what a “strong woman” actually looks like, how the fitness industry can create safe spaces for women of colour, and the grassroots communities that are shaking the table.
