A four-part limited audio series exploring what it’s like to be a woman in the professional whitewater industry. This is a podcast and Master's Thesis. All episode transcripts can be found at womeninwhitewater.wordpress.com
In this episode, I conclude this series by sharing stories of women in places where they feel empowered. What recommendations do they have for creating an equitable and inclusive whitewater community? This episode is a call and a challenge to the field; a way to center women’s voices around ways that people in the industry can do better.
