Catherine Riley is a writer, Director of the literary festival ‘Primadonna’ and also an expert in contemporary feminist publishing in the UK. She has just released her debut novel, 'Is This Love' and has published two books on women's writing and publishing, and contributed chapters and articles to edited collections on these themes. She worked for two years as Head of Communications at the Women’s Equality Party, the UK’s first feminist political party, helping build it from the ground up.
In this episode we delve into when Catherine first faced gender inequality when she was kicked off the football team for being a girl, and how this sparked a fire that is still very much alive today. We chat about how timing can be key when deciding to leave a job and although sometimes it might seem like the wrong decision at the beginning, it will always lead you to where you are meant to be!
