Trishala Lakhani is a dentist, BBC presenter and 2021 Miss Universe Great Britain finalist. Beauty pageants have been a contested part of our culture so in this episode I break down the stereotypes of pageanting and we discuss how beauty pageants promote empowerment and create several opportunities for women. A very interesting and topical debate, I hope you all enjoy this episode!
