Muslim Women, Feminism & Tokenism in the Workplace with Soaliha Iqbal

What does it actually mean to create real cultural change?

In this eye-opening and honest conversation, Winnie sits down with journalist and podcast creator Soaliha Iqbal to explore the intersections of politics, feminism, media trends, and anti-capitalism in a colonial world.

Soaliha shares how her lived experience as a Muslim women in Australian has defined her voice within the Australian media landscape, using her platform to unpack the social, cultural, and political structures that shape our everyday lives.

She reflects on the discomfort many people feel when talking about race, diversity, and inclusion. Instead of letting fear of “getting it wrong” hold us back, Soaliha shares why we should approach these conversations with honesty, courage, and a collaborative spirit.
