Places She Shapes: Live Podcast at WSP
The latest Places She Shapes event brought the podcast to life with a special live recording hosted at WSP, bringing together inspiring voices for an evening of meaningful conversation, connection, and collaboration.
Hosted by our Owner and Managing Director, Zoe Smeeth, the event welcomed guests from both Season 1 and Season 2 of the Places She Shapes podcast. The live discussion featured:
- Claire Gott MBE, Head of Building Structures at WSP UK & Ireland
- Michelle (Mitch) Lloyd Jones, Fighter Pilot & Qualified Flying Instructor (QFI) at Ascent Flight Training
- Diana Pego, Project Director at Area
- Amanda Salt, Managing Director EMEA at Insidesource
- And guest speaker Laura Collins, Senior Development Director at Stanhope
The evening created an open and engaging space for honest conversations about navigating careers, overcoming challenges, and championing change across the industry. Each speaker reflected on pivotal moments in their journey, sharing stories that resonated with everyone in the room and reinforced the power of community and representation.
A huge thank you goes to Storm Events for their brilliant production in bringing the live recording to life. We are also incredibly grateful to the WSP UK team for hosting and collaborating with us on the event. The live recording is another important step in continuing the Places She Shapes mission: amplifying the voices of women across the built environment and sharing the stories that inspire change.
