Having it all sounds exhausting and leaning out is just learning to say no | Witching Hour


Listen Later

Welcome back to Witching Hour: the show that looks at what's exciting, delighting, intriguing, and frustrating us as we make work, work alongside parenting.

In today's episode, we cover:

  • Michelle Wolf's having it all analogy has us re-thinking our affinity for the breakfast buffet.
  • The professional women who are leaning out, and why the term itself needs a rebrand.
  • Can't we all just get along? Inspired by this brilliant post from The Midwife Mumma, we take a look at some research into the often judgemental space of motherhood, and how society's expectations of mothers has us unintentionally pitting ourselves against one another. (And we're guilty of it, too!).
  • The depressing reason that Loz missed out on a place on the family Father's Day card drawing, and some of your funniest Father's Day stories.
  • Plus, we share our Instagram community's best tips on preparing for the return to paid work.
  • Just a heads up, there's a few swear words in this episode. Sorry, we can't help ourselves.
