Women in Wildlife

Happy New Year to our listeners! We kicked off the first episode of 2024 with Roxy Rogan. Roxy is a conservationist and award winning wildlife filmmaker, and has recently started her new role as a producer at Australian Geographic, after closing down her business "Wild Education". We were able to chat about her unique journey in getting to this dream position, and learnt more about her two films; Keepers of the Forest (Sumatra) and Person of the Forest (Borneo). We delved into the lessons she's learnt along the way, choosing to leave university to start her business at 19 years old, and her difficult decisions in stepping away from this role. We covered topics such as burn out, adjusting between self-employment and full time employment, and Roxy was generous enough to share lots of advice to listeners wanting to pursue a similar career path. You can follow Roxy's journey @roxyrogann!
