How do women at ISS define what it means to be a strong woman? How do they understand strength? Does it symbolize having it all? Does it mean a successful career? Does it mean challenging patriarchy? Or does it mean having the choice and freedom to take a break, rest and ask for help?

In the sixth Global ISSues podcast episode, host Surabhi Srivastava welcomes Brenda and Ezinne to the mic to unpack the tropes, narratives and conceptions of women's strength. You'll also have the pleasure of hearing the voices of MA students who contributed their stories for this episode.​
