More from Robert & Jeanette - The Breeze
Robert and Jeanette chat with Ali Mau, the renowned broadcaster and journalist, to discuss her new memoir No Words For This. Ali takes us through her incredible journey, from her early career in 90s newsrooms to her pioneering work in the #MeToo movement. She opens up about the abuse she endured at the hands of her father and the emotional impact it had on her life and career. Ali also shares her experiences as a journalist in a male-dominated industry, navigating the challenges and triumphs that shaped her path. In the memoir, Ali reflects on her transformation from a celebrated media personality to an advocate for sexual harm survivors. With vulnerability and strength, she discusses the difficult process of confronting family secrets while continuing to expose stories of injustice as a reporter. It's an honest exploration of resilience, healing, and the power of words to both wound and heal.
