Description

If you can see it, you can be it. But what happens when you look around and nobody looks like you? Seen is an interview podcast that talks to inspirational Australians who have come from under-represented backgrounds and communities, and made astonishing impacts on our culture. Join host Yumi Stynes this season celebrating older women who take risks, show huge courage, resilience, and tenacity to rise to excellence in their third act. Meet pro surfer Pauline Menczer, renowned artist Lindy Lee, community chef Duang Tengritrat and Tiwi Island Sistagirl Crystal Love Johnson, and more.
