In this episode of the P.O.W.E.R. Podcast, Melissa Ashcroft sits down with Kirsten Steedman from Shelter NSW, a passionate advocate for housing affordability, equity, and long-term solutions to break the cycle of insecure housing.
With a background in corporate retail and shopping centre development, Kirsten brings a unique lens to the housing conversation, shaped by years of observing how built environments impact community, inclusion, and access. She shares what those shopping centres taught her about belonging, the shift to purpose-driven work, and why she believes women in leadership need to stop apologising and start backing themselves.
An honest, inspiring chat about systems change, career evolution, and the human side of housing.
