Facing oppressive systemic sexism is not unique; it's what Rhona did in the face of it that makes her story so worth our time!

Rhona Malone was a highly trained professional in a career that she absolutely loved and was dedicated to. She was working within a system that had assured her and all the other members of their force that they were dedicated to diversity, gender equality and systemic change. Rhona found that everything she had worked for was at stake when it was all exposed to be just empty words. Sexism and gender-discrimination was alive and well in the system and thwarting both her career and her individual rights and capacities, not just a police officer and a firearm specialist.

Believing in the promises of guaranteed equalities, Rona sought to help change some of the issues that faced her and other women. What she could not have known was that she would face a three year legal battle that not only robbed her of the career she loved, but of her financial and emotional well being.

Rona never bent to the pressure to sign a nondisclosure agreement that would muzzle her and let the repressive "boys club" system continue unimpeded. She won her fight, spurred discussion and recognition of the issue all the way to the highest office in the land - Scotland's First Minister, Nicola Sturgeon called the tribunal results a "watershed moment", and that women should not expected to fix the problem of men behaving in a "deeply unacceptable and misogynistic way".

In the meantime, Rhona has created a new life for herself, both with her own business in a totally different area - estate agency, but also as a burgeoning public speaker, addressing these issues of systemic sexism, discrimination and inequality.   -  She's ALL That!
