This week we sit down with Gina Miller who shares her journey from advocating for her special needs daughter to becoming Britain's leading constitutional challenger and financial reform advocate. Her story powerfully demonstrates how motherhood can be a catalyst for transformative change rather than a limitation.

Key highlights:

•Miller shares how she balanced landmark Supreme Court cases with school runs and family life, offering practical insights for ambitious mothers juggling high-stakes careers with parenting responsibilities •As a survivor of economic abuse turned financial advocate, she discusses founding SCM Direct and MoneyShe.com, providing valuable perspective for mothers seeking both financial independence and career impact •The conversation tackles real challenges faced by activist mothers, from managing public scrutiny while protecting your children to finding your voice in male-dominated spaces

For ambitious mothers questioning whether they can create meaningful change while raising their families, Miller's message is clear: transformative activism often begins with addressing issues that affect your own family. Her story proves that motherhood and ambition aren't mutually exclusive – they can be powerful companions in creating change.
