For our first-ever live recording at Clear Hayes House, SXSW Sydney, Cassie Roma and Yasmin London sit down with the extraordinary Dr Catherine Ball — author, futurist, and unapologetic disruptor.

From her curious childhood and the mentors who shaped her, to her fearless work at XPrize and Vox Helix, Cath takes us on a wild ride through science, storytelling, and the future of technology — including the unexpected world of dildonics and why curiosity and courage matter more than ever.

We laughed. We cried. We questioned everything.

This episode is equal parts intellect, inspiration, and irreverence — a reminder that being a First Mover means leading with heart, humour, and humanity in the age of AI.

🎧 Tune in for big laughs, big feels, and even bigger ideas.
