TURNER SYNDROME TALK AND TEA TSSS UK PODCAST WITH ZOE GLASGOW
My name is Zoe Glasgow, and I was diagnosed with Turner Syndrome at three weeks old. I have been going to conference since I was three years old and it gets better and better every year.
When I was 15, I became a teen representative and have most recently taken on the role of teen co-Ordinator looking after the new teen reps and of course - your new podcast host!.
I have also done a variety of fundraisers over time at school and work to raise money for the Society as they are so important to me and I wanted to give back after everything they do for me and other girls and women like me.
For work I am an IT system administrator which give me the perfect mix of using my technical skills and my passion for helping people together which I love so much. When I am not working, I can be found riding rollercoasters (as I am the perfect height! YIPPIE!) or at a musical or concert.
Taking over this podcast from Emily has meant so much to me as I know the hard work and dedication put into it previously and I hope I am making Emily and the Society proud. It is so inspiring to me hearing stories from those who have a connection to TS, whether they have it or not. Emily said it before, but I will reiterate it as it is so true, there is such power in conversation.
I am always on the lookout for new guests with any connection to Turners, so if you are interested then please email me at This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it. or private message me on Instagram (@tstalkandtea) or Facebook!
I am so honoured to be your podcast host and teen co-ordinator and hope I make you all proud!
