Are the working mums okay? | Witching Hour

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. It's Ready or Not's loose little sister coming to your ears every Monday.

In today's episode, we cover:

• The rise of the dry promotion and how to negotiate salary talks if this happens to you.
• An overachiever fails on maternity leave (re this article).
• And, are the working mums okay? Our poll this week is all around mid-year review, what we're stopping starting & continuing, and goal setting.

THIS WEEK'S PARTNER

This episode is brought to you by Second Scout, home of the original magnetic timber daily Routine Helper & Little Agenda weekly planner, designed to make life easier for families.

Using easy visuals, their routine helpers, weekly planners and home organisation solutions speak a language the whole family can understand (even the non-readers).

Kids get to rock their day with confidence and predictability, while us parents get to save a little sanity. Once a task is completed kids get to flip the tile over to reveal a star which gives them a sense of achievement, encourages responsibility and provides positive reinforcement.

Head to www.secondscout.com.au and say hello to smoother days.
