Inspire-Ability

#24 Tetyana Shevchenko - Living History

Aerobility Season 1 Episode 24

In the final part of our chat with Tetyana, she and Harriett discuss women in aviation, from the lack of role models for girls to the dearth of aviation in education. Tetyana is a key proponent of the importance of airshows for inspiring young aviators, and she explains the challenges now that there are more pathways for girls into flying, but fewer airshows at which to inspire them. Role models is a key theme in this episode: Tetyana reflects on how she lacked her own when growing up, and is prompted to consider her own role now in inspiring young pilots. 


We also hear how a film about a Nobel Prize-winning mathematician helped Tetyana to understand her own mental health condition, and how encouragement to be the best that you can be, can help you to take control of the situation. In setting these mental health goals, Tetyana is able to focus more on the pathway to getting there rather than the obstacles in her path.
