The Power of Being in the Room

Leadership is not just about influence; it’s about being in the room where decisions are made.

In this episode, Dr. Nawal Al-Hosany, UAE Permanent Representative to IRENA, sits down with Hon. Dr. Joyelle Clarke, Minister of Sustainable Development and Climate Action of St. Kitts and Nevis, to explore what it truly means for women to step into positions of power and purpose.

From her journey transitioning from research into government, to becoming a voice for small island states on the global stage, Dr. Clarke reflects on the importance of authenticity, resilience, and showing up with clarity of purpose. She shares why being in decision-making spaces is critical to driving real change, and why more young women must take that step earlier in their careers.
