D&T - Time For a Quick One - Juggling Life And Business And The ‘Have to's’, Demands and Pressure we Place on Ourselves


Listen Later

Have you got time for a quick one?

We’re launching a new feature - “D&T Time for a Quick One”. These are short episodes, especially for those times when all you have is about 10 minutes spare in your day. So take a minute, sit back and join the ladies for a quick one!

KEY TAKEAWAYS

  • The ladies discuss their views on the differences between men and women’s approach to domestic duties and muse on the idea that women have a very different perspective to men when it comes to household chores.
  • Why do the ladies have to sort out holidays, birthday’s, Christmas’, school uniforms, ironing, cooking, cleaning...why can’t the men and kids help?
  • Do men expect women to take care of domestic duties? A real bug bearer for the ladies as they discuss men looking in the fridge 3 times before asking “What’s for dinner?”
  • Are women putting demands on themselves with all their ‘Have to’s?’, ‘I have to clean the house’, ‘I have to do the dishes’, ‘I have to do the ironing’. Sometimes they juggle too many of them and it piles on the pressure.

BEST MOMENTS

“You know when married couples fall into bed after a long day and they haven’t had sex for fifteen months?...I get it”

“I don’t clean my house because I’m a woman and “I like that shit”, I do it because if my house is untidy, I can’t settle.”

“My son genuinely believes that I should do all his housework because I chose to have children”

ABOUT THE HOSTS
Dawn and Tracy are real women who are fed up of all the “noise” out there in the real world. Life isn’t simply rainbows and unicorns, it's broken relationships, hard work, hot sweats and never ending laundry baskets.  But life as a real woman is also about being honest, having good gossip and speaking our truths. Whether it’s peeling yourself into your spandex for a night out, or running a business meeting barefoot because the heel has fallen off your stilettos, there is always something to laugh about in life.
Dawn is mid 50’s mid menopause straight talking business maverick.  Four kids, three grandchildren, two businesses, one husband and a self proclaimed “hottie”.
Tracy is a mid 50’s awesome mum, business and property mentor. Proud of her raw, honest nature, “bonkers” sense of humour and good old-fashioned northern humility.

PODCAST DESCRIPTION
The business of being a real woman juggling life, love and work for many of us is pure sweat, grit & hustle. This podcast is for those of you who are tired of the “noise” and just want real down-to-earth gossip with no filters or fluff.  Dawn and Tracy bring heartfelt humour, raw honesty, spandex, stilettos, and intelligent conversion on being a real woman in today's world.
