In this episode of the EG Property Podcast EG editor Samantha McClary sits down with four of 14 female leaders in the built environment who have put pen to paper in this week's EG Magazine, writing a letter to the next generation of women who should look to real estate to build a career.

Over the course of this 30-minute conversation we hear insights from Anji Hobson, director of Seam Consultancy, Emma Goodford, partner and head of life sciences at Knight Frank, Dellah Gilbert, partner and head of property litigation at Maples Teesdale, and Charlotte Glazier, an EG Future Leader and programme manager for greening the public realm at Islington Council, about their experiences as women in the sector and the advice they put forward in their letters.

The conversation paints a picture of real estate that any individual should be clamouring to enter. A sector which allows you to build a career that helps solve big problems, that enables you to shape places, to give back and, importantly, to make a difference.

Listen in to hear how we should be talking differently about real estate if we really want to open it up to a wider selection of talent and be sure to pick up your copy of EG Magazine this weekend to read all 14 letters in full.
