Podcast appearances and mentions of virginia tapscott

In today's episode we sit down with the articulate and aspirant Alannah Batho from the Parents Work Collective. Alannah is a parent to two girls, an employment lawyer and alongside Virginia Tapscott has founded the not-for-profit advocacy organization Parents Work Collective. You may have seen their t-shirts out in the wild with the bold red words reading “ALL MOTHERS WORK”. Parents Work Collective are working to change the narrative and policies around the value of unpaid care work aka parenting. Alannah is passionate about more value being ascribed to, and more support provided for, the joyful, challenging, meaningful work that is caring for one's own children. Throughout our chat we discuss the culture in Australia that has devalued care-work, how feminism left mothers behind, the impacts of increasing paid support for both parents and how this is in fact an investment in the future. Because yes parenthood is a choice, but it is essential for the continuing of the human species and the health of the economy as well. So why in this country are we being penalized for becoming parents? Listen in and see how we can make simple and effective changes. Sign up to the Parents Work Collective mailing list at the bottom of the page here to join their cause.____The lovely sponsors of this podcast are Mt Eliza Family Chiropractic Clinic.

How times have changed. Over decades, a lot of our grandmothers or mothers, have led the charge in pushing for change, to support their daughters dreams to be equal in the workplace. Whilst we have come a long way, there now seems to be confusion between roles, and judgement of how you choose to parent, a ripple effect of our fight for equality in the workplace. Virginia Tapscott has been a leader and advocate that there should be the option of choice to care for your child from home, as much as the option to return to work in our society. As a talented journalist herself, she has written impassioned articles for The Australian, and spoken to the media, including what could be called a head-to-head with Mia Freedman on Mamamia No Filter Podcast. Since then, Virginia has founded ‘Parents Work Collective', an Organisation which is made up of a team of parents and carers from varied caregiving and professional backgrounds, who advocate through media engagement and political submissions to relevant inquiries or community consultation and raise awareness of the devaluation of care occurring at social, cultural, and political levels. But underneath the strength and powerful voice, Virginia is also a woman, and a mum who still must manage life, her own well-being, and the full-time care for her children. So we take the opportunity to understand all things policy and personal, with the ever so brave, Virginia Tapscott.    Rebecca Bull – Creator / Executive Producer / Co-Host Zoe Weir – Co-Creator / Co – Host Sophie Jackson – Producer Social Media – Naughty Nancy Social Media Agency Website / Brand Design – Foster Creative Video Editor – Luke MorganSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Zoe interviews Virginia Tapscott, a freelance journalist and mother of four from rural New South Wales, Australia. They discuss the concept of care feminism, which emphasizes the value and importance of women's care work, whether it is paid or unpaid. Care feminism is contrasted with dominant feminist rhetoric that sometimes aims to minimize or avoid care work altogether. Additionally, they discuss Virginia's podcast, My Sister's Secrets, which explores the stories of Virginia and her late sister, Alex. Both were sexually abused by a family member during their infancy. They examine whether this abuse influenced Virginia's perception of men and her desire to have a family.

Please, if it brings anything up, call Lifeline on 13 14 14, or 1800 RESPECT.Our guest today is journalist Virginia Tapscott, whose words have graced many a Graziher page. Ginny lives on a property near Albury with her husband, Rhys and their four young children, Oscar, 6, four year old Eva, three year old Elke and four month old Tully.Ginny, who was named the Caroline Jones Women in Media Young Journalist's Award in 2019 and last year named as one of 21 women who defined 2021 by Vogue Magazine, is breaking completely new ground with her fight against child sexual abuse.The journalist has recently launched an investigative podcast series alongside The Australian newspaper and reporter Steve Jackson, called My Sister's Secrets. It's an at-times harrowing and deeply difficult listen. But it's also courageous and compelling, as Ginny explores the events leading up to the abuse she and her older sister, Ally experienced as children, by their step grandfather. Ally later experienced a separate alleged assault as a teenager, and died in June 2020 from a drug overdose.These are stories we'd rather weren't real. But they are, and Ginny's bravery is extraordinary. Her ability to look the ugly truth in the eye and speak about her lived experience is sending ripples across Australia. And she's creating a safe space for other survivors to come forward and seek the help and justice they deserve. We want to help platform her work to help others in the bush have these tough conversations.

Sometimes really bad things happen in families. Things that aren't spoken about. Things that are covered up to protect adults….at the expense of children. But sometimes, decades later, when those children grow up, they make the courageous, difficult decision to speak up, even if there is enormous pressure from within their family and community to stay silent. Virginia Tapscott is one of those children who grew up and spoke out, after the death of her beloved older sister Ally Tapp who was abused by not just one trusted male relative but two. This is the story of Virginia and Ally. A heads up, this podcast deals with sexual assault and child sexual assault.
