A new survey of 74,000 teenage girls in India has found that half of Indian girls are underweight and one in two have anaemia. However, the incidence doesn鈥檛 vary based on wealth or where she lives. Some of the findings are positive though: more girls have access to clean water than ever before, many have telephones at home and a high percentage of teenage girls are in education. The Naandi Foundation (an Indian charity which works to tackle poverty) is releasing their findings today. Tina Daheley speaks to Rohini Mukherjee from the Naandi Foundation and Suhani Jolata, founder and CEO of Myna Mahila Foundation.

The Woman鈥檚 Hour Power List 2018 celebrates the women having an impact on the music we鈥檙e listening to now. Number five on the list, Stacey Tang is the Managing Director of RCA UK and is certainly doing that: in 2017 alone she oversaw six number one albums, and sits in the Digital Futures Council. She joins Tina to discuss her career.

At the age of 16 Edith Eger was sent to Auschwitz with her parents and sister. Her parents were executed on arrival, but her bond with her sister sustained her. Harrowed by trauma and survivor鈥檚 guilt once released, she went on train as a psychologist, a role she still nurtures to this day in her early nineties. Edith talks to Tina about her life, her internationally bestselling book 鈥淭he Choice鈥�, and the very special lesson she has learned about how to not only survive, but to thrive.
