Shaping Change: Meet Lauren Foley, Feminist Digital Communications Consultant and Inspiring Female Leader!

Thank you Susan Dickie and Her Expat Life Ltd for the opportunity to answer some fascinating questions related to gender equality and my career thus far. We touch on a lot but some specifics:
