Kate Kirwin, She Codes

If you've ever told yourself you're "too fun" or "too old" for tech, this one's for you. In this week’s episode of Femmebot, we meet Kate Kirwin, the founder of She Codes. What started as a one-off workshop has grown into a national movement helping thousands of women learn to code, build confidence and shift careers. Kate’s mission isn’t just about teaching tech skills. It’s about dismantling fear, making space for curiosity and giving women — including those from regional areas and neurodiverse backgrounds — the tools and community they need to thrive. We talk about coding, confidence, cupcakes and the myths still holding women back from exploring tech and AI.
