What happens when women stop waiting for permission and start creating space for each other?
In this episode, Alanna Ball sits down with Leah Selfe, also known as The Productivity Queen, to talk about what it really means to build community in the health and safety space.
They dive into the weight of working in a male-dominated industry, the power of integrity, and why celebrating your wins isn't self-indulgent, it’s necessary. Leah shares how she helps women in business step into their value without burning out, while Alanna reflects on how far the Women in Safety community has come by doing just that—showing up, speaking up, and lifting each other along the way.
This one’s for the women who’ve had to make their own noise. For those still learning to. And for anyone who believes that authenticity and community can be a professional strength, not a liability.
