SUMMER SERIES: Ladies, Stop The ‘Humble Brag’

Subscribe to Mamamia

Should you get extra credit if you’re also a mother? From Barbie director Greta Gerwig to Matilda's football star Katrina Gorry, we discuss the praise women in the public eye have been receiving after having babies.

Plus, does being humble negatively impact women? Would you ever keep a 'compliments journal'? We unpack one writer's theory on pumping up your ego.

And, as the current wave of modern etiquette rules continues to baffle and delight, what are the things your hairdresser wishes you’d stop doing?
