Ever thought about a career in STEM? Why not try reading the weather?
In this episode, one of my favourite meteorologists, Jess Lingard from the Bureau of Meteorology, joins me—Leah Tindale—to talk about weather, empathy, and life in STEM.
We dive into the challenges women face in STEM, the shifts Jess has seen in the field, and how she stays grounded while navigating public criticism. She also breaks down how weather forecasts really work and shares her creative approach to making science relatable.
Jess reminds us that behind every forecast is a human story—and that sometimes, the best advice is simply to live in the moment.
