Re-Release Jamila Rizvi - Gender Parity, Community and Imperfection

*This summer we're re-releasing previous episodes that we loved. Here is Jamila Rizvi episode from 2018*

We will rise together or not at all

Jamila Rizvia is an author, presenter, political commentator, the newly appointed editor-at-large of Future Women, former editor-in-chief of MamaMia. She has written two books, Not Just Lucky and The Motherhood, and signs off her emails Troublemaker At Large, which is a great sign.

We discuss:

a series of hilarious but also scary statistics, like the fact that there are more men named Andrew than women running ASX200 companies

Tips for negotiating, such as focus on what you want, not what you've got

The structural inequalities that we live in, and the importance of understanding them so we can see it's not 'just me'

Diversity is proven to shift the bottom line in organisations, so how do we make workplacesÂ work better for women

A glorious story about how Barak Obama's female staff supported each others ideas and in being heard

That we can all be part of the sisterhood and the feminist movement in whatever way works for us as individuals

The importance of community

How we all need to let go of the pursuit of perfection, and give ourselves a bit of a break

Resources

We mention some resources throughout the conversation, here is where you can find links to them all!

Future Women, where Jamila has taken the helm and is building an amazing community.

Jamila's books, Not Just Lucky and The Motherhood
