This podcast is made by the Women in Law Society at the University of Edinburgh. We hope to showcase great women who work in the field of law and have inspired us to go down the legal pathway and do what we do today. These women will share their interests in the legal field as well as discuss issues around gender. Female students will also take over some episodes to talk about their passions, hoping to inspire fellow students to work on what they love.
