In the 7th Episode of The Farah Shammas Podcast, we are happy to welcome Penelope Vasquez Hadjilyra.

We dive into her journey from entrepreneurship to public service, discussing leadership, the housing challenges in Limassol, post-fire preparedness, and her vision for a more balanced and sustainable future for Cyprus.

Penelope also shares her perspective as a woman in business and politics, the importance of community, and what meaningful leadership looks like in today’s Cyprus.

As Penelope prepares to run in the 2026 Parliamentary Elections in Limassol with the support of Volt Cyprus, she speaks about the need for unity over division, human-focused solutions for housing, immigration, and the environment, and a political approach built on research, collaboration, transparency, and hard work.
