Cherie Blair CBE on female empowerment, Downing Street and technology

They Started It with Angelica Malin

Welcome to #SheStartedIt with Angelica Malin - a new podcast hosted by entrepreneur Angelica Malin, founder of About Time Magazine and the About Time Academy, featuring incredible, inspiring women who are at the top of their industries. On my first episode, I’m joined by Cherie Blair - a leading human rights lawyer, philanthropist and committed campaigner for women’s rights. In 2008, Cherie established the Cherie Blair Foundation for Women, inspired by her experiences of meeting women across the world during her time in Downing Street as the wife of former British Prime Minister Tony Blair. The Cherie Blair Foundation for Women empowers women to build small and growing businesses in low and middle income countries, so that they can contribute to their economies and have a stronger voice in their societies. We chat about Cherie’s amazing career as a QC, setting up the foundation, the importance of mentorship and using technology to help empower women around the world. Listeners can reach out to Cherie via LinkedIn or keep up to date with the Foundation through their website, twitter or Instagram. Don’t forget to rate, review & subscribe for a new episode every Monday!
