This is a special mini episode, better known as a Yesticle, featuring one of the "doulas" that helped bring this podcast to life back in 2021--- Doris Onyango, the Production Manager at SemaBOX, Africa's largest podcast incubator.

She has an engaging conversation with Akumu and Claire that delves into the world of female empowerment, feminism, and women's rights, by touching on gender stereotypes, women's liberation, gender discrimination, women's movements, feminist movements, the gender pay gap, women's education, and women's representation.

Doris shares her own experiences and insights as a woman in Kenya, shedding light on the challenges and triumphs she's encountered along the way. Akumu and Claire eventually challenge her to explore the concept of feminine energy and its significance in creating a space where women can thrive, both personally and professionally.

And last but certainly not least, Doris celebrates the incredible journey of women podcasters in Kenya and shares details about the groundbreaking Dada Podcast Incubator, the world's first podcast incubator designed exclusively for women and non-binary individuals. She explains the vision behind this unique initiative, its mission to amplify diverse voices, and how it is shaping the future of podcasting in and for the Global South.

So tune in as Akumu, Claire, and Doris Onyango celebrate and demonstrate the strength and resilience of women through insights, stories, opinions and, of course, lighthearted laughter.
