You will not want to miss this episode! Jamie Klingler, Writer and Activist for women's safety shares her story of making a change she had given up on, and in doing so finding a new calling. Alcohol and food dependancies were helping Jamie numb the pain of grief, but keeping her stuck in destructive patterns. In the first UK lockdown in 2020 she realised that something had to change. Jamie shares with Sara, how she managed to start and sustain a change and this gave her the resolve and energy to fight for a cause she cared for, after the murder of Sarah Everard
As co-founder of Reclaim These Streets, she was part of the group that successfully sued the Metropolitan Police for breaching her human rights after they banned a vigil for Sarah Everard. She was named ninth in PR Week UK's list of top communicators in 2021. Her writing can be seen in Vogue, the Guardian, Grazia and many more outlets. Her recent TEDx talk is here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jtycbSeGp2I and she writes regularly at jamieklingler.substack.com
