#035 Not Sweetheart. Not Girly. Just Qualified.
In this episode, WiMSA Board Chair, Noleen Pauls is joined by Megan Jarvis, partner at Webber Wentzel, and Dr Jeanette McGill, mining executive and geoscientist, for a candid conversation about the realities of being a woman in mining and professional services.
They reflect on a time when women were barred from working underground, share defining career moments that demanded grit and resilience, and explore how unconscious bias still shapes workplace dynamics today. The discussion moves beyond struggle to focus on leadership, emotional intelligence, mentorship, and the power of women supporting women.
From “pull-her-down syndrome” to the importance of networks like WIMSA, this episode celebrates progress while asking the hard questions about inclusion, equality, and how industries truly change.
This is a conversation about showing up, being heard, and being recognised for one thing only: competence.

#034 Blasting the Silence on GBV and Harassment in the Workplace
Voices for safety in our homes and mines.
In this episode of WiMSA’s Voices for Safety campaign against GBV, Mogaleadi speaks with Sazini Mojapelo, the Global Gender GBV Lead at the IFC, about the urgent need to confront gender-based violence in our workplaces. Together, they unpack how history, culture, and power dynamics shape behaviour in our society and workplaces. They dig into why achieving true gender equality starts with eliminating violence in all its forms, from harassment and bullying to intimidation and emotional harm. This conversation goes beyond awareness. It offers practical actions: visible leadership and accountability, survivor-centred response, updated policies, and a culture grounded in respect.
