Women in Mediation • Interview with Suzanne Rab

Women in Mediation is a CMC series inspired by International Women's Day where Mia Forbes Pirie interviews successful women mediators on their journey in mediation. When Mia first thought of becoming a mediator, she was initially told that she could not be a successful commercial mediator unless she was male and middle-aged. At the time, this was pragmatic, well intentioned advice. It made her curious about other women's stories in mediation and inspired her to begin a series on Women in Mediation. We are fortunate enough to have Suzanne Rab joining us as part of our podcast series Women In Mediation. Suzanne is a talented commercial mediator and barrister working in her specialist areas but also with an eclectic practice based on her individual strengths. Suzanne's story is inspiring in how she has faced adversity – both on a racial and sexual basis – but has not let that stand in her way and has persevered and found her niche and is "loving it”.
