Barbados' Badass Women: A special episode celebrating the paradise island's Bajan women in recognition of International Women's Day 2021!

Barbados has some quite incredible and inspirational women.  I know this, because I researched them during my plans for this special episode celebrating International Women's Day earlier this week. I wanted to find three different women with three very different backgrounds, and I'm super excited to announce that I've pulled it off for this very episode. I'm so delighted that I get to shine a spotlight on these 'bad ass' women of Barbados during this episode. These Bajan ladies all left me feeling really positive. We have, a philanthropist, a long-listed novelist, and a passionate equestrian Olympic hopeful. Firstly I chat with Dr Barbara Trieloff-Deane. She's very passionate about helping young Bajan women get started off with the best possible opportunities as early as possible and has her fingers on the pulse of many good causes. Cherie S.A. Jones is waiting to hear if she's going to land a very prestigious literary award. She's also a lawyer and a mum! Also, Monique Archer, who is a gifted equestrian and is very keen to do her bit to raise awareness of a cause that's very close to her heart.  If that's not enough celebrating of spectacular Barbados women for you, we also have a few special shout-outs, from some of my paradise island listeners, for the ladies that are truly inspiring them over here. Here they are. Cheryl Carter Mia Mottley Dr Drake We really hope you enjoy joining us in celebrating these truly spectacular Barbados women.
