For Kudzai Kanhutu, power is deeply connected to dignity. 

As a physician, academic and leader in healthcare, Kudzai has seen how power operates in clinical relationships, cultural contexts and gender dynamics. 

In this episode, Kudzai explores how power shapes autonomy, identity and voice, drawing on her experiences as both doctor and patient. She also introduces a compelling idea: power as energy - something that can be shared, exchanged and even “seeded” in everyday interactions. 

Wonder Women: Power Reimagined explores how women experience, express, and redefine power. Join us each week as we unpick old narratives, challenge expectations, and imagine new ways of leading that are grounded, connected, and bold.
