Whether you're a woman with a big idea, or in a moment of doubt, this episode is a masterclass in purpose-driven entrepreneurship. At 22, Stephanie Woollard followed a woman into a tin shed in Kathmandu — and walked out with a purpose that would change thousands of lives. With just $200 and an unwavering belief in dignity over charity, she founded Seven Women, a social enterprise that empowered marginalised women through skills training and employment. Now, 17 years on and an Order of Australia Medal recipient, Stephanie has handed back that thriving organisation to the Nepali community — and turned her attention to a new chapter: The Celtic Way.
KEY TOPICS:
- Personal growth and overcoming self-doubt
- How she built a global social enterprise from scratch
- The philosophy of 'trade, not aid' was central to her approach
- Community and unity among women led to significant change.
