We feel honoured to have spent time in the presence of a true great for this week’s episode: Margaret Owen OBE. She’s a human rights barrister specialising in women’s rights, with a career spanning decades and a passion for justice that won’t stop.
Margaret and Yasmin talk about the start of her career – the things that have and sadly haven’t changed – how her practice evolved and how her family history influences the work she’s still doing today, including for the charity she’s founded: Widows for Peace Through Democracy (https://www.widowsforpeace.org).
At The Hearing HQ, we speak to cool and inspirational guests all the time and we love it. It’s easy to talk up our guests, so you’re welcome to take this with a pinch of salt (but you really really shouldn’t): Margaret Owen is a one-of-a-kind lawyer and everyone can learn something from her attitude to life and work. Enjoy!
