In the lead up to International Women's Day we chat with the founders of Conscious Combat Club, Georgia Verry and Penny McKay. This brilliant initiative facilitates trauma-informed kickboxing classes for women and gender-diverse people impacted by violence and other trauma. We also chat about the upcoming Conscious Combat Club workshop which Thorne Harbour Health is running Saturday 15 March. So, if you’re interested in joining us, tune in for how you can get involved! In the second half of the show, we speak with entrepreneur, activist and owner of the Moroccan Soup Bar, Hana Assafiri. Hana takes us on a fascinating journey on her life and what drives her to champion women from marginalised communities. We also speak about her memoir, Hana Assafiri – The Audacity to be Free. More on the Conscious Combat Club … Their programs were designed in response to gender-based violence and have two streams: women's classes and classes for trans and gender diverse people. The waitlists for both are open and there is a scholarship program available thanks to the Victorian Women's Trust.
