School Mums, Cliques and Cults...What They All Have In Common with Comedian and Actor Kate-Lois Elliott

School Mums, Cliques and Cults...What They All Have In Common with Comedian and Actor Kate-Lois Elliott

Belonging, fitting in, being liked and frenemies. These are the trappings of many girls/women social and friendship groups not just in childhood, but well into adulthood as well. And for many, as you enter parenthood, also the dynamics at the school gates with other parents. This weeks episode, host Jennie, is joined by Comedian, Actor and Writer, Kate-Lois Elliott. Drawing upon her own mothers' experience growing up in a Christian Cult, Kate-Lois identified some glaring similarities between her mums experience in a cult and navigating female friendships from childhood through to adulthood and has channelled that into her comedy acts. Jennie and Kate-Lois talk about how these kinds of group dynamics, specifically amongst girls/women, are toxic and detrimental...but also find the humour in the ridiculousness of it all.
