Our story

She Shapes History was founded in 2021 by Sita Sargeant. She had become so fed up with the lack of accessible and engaging women's history in Australia that she decided to start running a weekly walking tour, sharing stories of how women have shaped history in her hometown of Canberra. Since then, it has grown in ways she could have never imagined. She Shapes History provides transformative, engaging, and entertaining experiences designed for those eager to uncover a different side of history.
