It’s the season to blame Tyra. Netflix’s new America’s Next Top Model doco has us spiraling back to 2003. It shows us the size-zero era through a 2026 lens, when Tyra Banks was breaking barriers while also showcasing some of the show's seriously batshit behaviour —from models posing as murder victims to 'makeovers' that involved pulling teeth. Now we’re in the MAFS era Clare Stephens wants to know: is every generation’s reality TV show of choice just programmed to prompt outrage? Also, today is Jessie’s last day before she goes off on maternity leave. But not before a chaotic handover to her twin, Clare. As Clare prepares to take the seat, she’s re-learning the 'rules' of being an Out Loud host. In other business, does your personality need a mini-makeover of its own? We’re talking 'micro-reinvention' — not big deals like quitting your job; more small shifts like adopting a signature condiment or finally becoming a 'Pilates person'. Holly, for instance, is wearing brown. Big deal. Huge. SUBSCRIBE here: Support independent women's media Recommendations Clare recommends the "Brick"—a physical device that locks you out of your apps to fight phone addiction. Jessie recommends L’Occitane Osmanthus Abricot shower gel or DedCool Taunt Hand and Body Wash for the ultimate vibe shift. Holly recommends Eric Dane: Famous Last Words on Netflix—a raw interview with a man who has nothing left to lose. What To Listen To Next: Listen to our latest episode: Oh Sh*t.

Outlouders, enjoy this free bite of Mia Freedman. Catch the full conversation — Oh Sh*t. We Let Creeps Decide Our Beauty Standards — at 5 pm TODAY. Not a subscriber yet? Put matters right HERE. When a newsletter has the internet in a chokehold, you better believe that Mia Freedman has to unpack it. And so it is with the recent Substack from Jameela Jamil. Writing from what Jamil calls the "funeral of the body positivity movement," she posits a theory that is as provocative as it is dark: that the obsession with extreme thinness, hairlessness, and agelessness isn't just about vanity — it’s a standard designed to mimic the aesthetics of children. Jessie and Holly join Mia to dive deep into the sinister framework of the 'sexy baby' trope, questioning why grown women are taught to spend their lives trying to get back to a body they had at thirteen. Is the 'Epstein-ness' of this current cultural moment exposing a wider fetishisation of youth among the world's most powerful men? Or is Jamil's critique of the homogenised look of our favourite female stars—from Sabrina Carpenter to Taylor Swift—unfairly judging their "sparkly underpants" choice? "Your body is not meant to look the same at 28 as it did at 18." Is it time to reclaim our waistlines, our wrinkles, and our right to look like grown-ass women? Mia has thoughts — and we're pretty sure you do too. Remember, this is your free sample of today's subs episode. The full debrief drops for subscribers at 5pm.

Today, if you’re an Australian with even a drop of British or Irish blood, Amelia has a warning that might cost you hundreds of dollars.And, is it okay for celebrities to ask us for money? After the deaths of millennial TV icons James Van Der Beek and Eric Dane, their families have started GoFundMe campaigns — and not everyone’s happy about it. Holly, Jessie, and Amelia have very different takes on whether it’s okay to solicit for donations when you live on a multi-million dollar ranch. Also, the new Married At First Sight villain,Tyson has landed. Jessie thinks his quest for a 'submissive' woman and his 'manosphere' vibes reflect what women are dealing with out in the dating world. While Holly‘s pearls are clutched about the podcast he’s doubtless going to start when he leaves the show. So, ‘should’ this man be on primetime TV? Plus, a listener dilemma we can’t stop talking about. Vanessa is overwhelmed, over-worked, and considering quitting her job because her husband’s 'big career' has left her doing 100 percent of the heavy-lifting at home. Jessie says "life is long, just quit," while Holly is asking: if every woman is making the 'choice' to scale back, is it actually a choice at all?Plus, we deep dive into PHAARC — the probably not real (but very relatable) 'medical' condition currently ruining your work life.

Message us your commentsHave you ever had a day where you're doing all the same things you've always done, but suddenly it feels like you're pushing through mud?You're functioning, but you're not really fine. You're tired in a way that sleep doesn't fix. And because so many of your symptoms are nearly invisible, you start doubting yourself instead of recognising what's actually happening.This is incredibly common for women 40+, especially those juggling kids, partners, work, ageing parents, pets, and everyone else's needs, while quietly sliding themselves to the bottom of the list.And here's the problem: most women are never given a clear, practical roadmap for this phase of life. Instead, they're left piecing together advice from social media, half-truths, and well-meaning comments that don't reflect their reality. No wonder it feels overwhelming.This is exactly why we created The Mother of All Menopause Summits.In this episode, we explain what led us to build it, who it's really for, and why “just push through” is not a strategy. Our aim is simple: to give busy working mums real, usable tools that still work on your most chaotic days, not just on your imaginary “perfect week”.The Mother of All Menopause Summits is a free, online, three-day event running February 11–13. It brings together 20+ expert speakers covering the things that actually move the needle in midlife: sleep, stress, strength, energy, mindset, confidence, and how to balance it all while still showing up at work and at home.No extremes. No guilt. Just realistic support for real women in midlife.Sign upListen to the pod, then head here to register for your FREE tickethttps://motherofallmenopausesummits.com/

Last season we unpacked the process of sending your kid to daycare & all the fun that comes with it (the bugs, mainly the bugs) so today we're discussing the logistics of going back to work. You already know our personal back to work stories, Kee went back after a year & then threw in the towel to freelance and Kel just took no time off at all. So today we're chatting to two glorious Sh*tters (Sandy & Lily) who have had very different experiences entering back into the workforce. Sandy is a mum to 3 young kids, who not only juggles her own nursing career, but also supports her husband who's currently studying to become a surgeon. Lily is a mum of one, with another on the way, whose identity completely changed after becoming a first time mum. This led to a return-to-work at four months postpartum, a career change and another (career) baby; Launch Mama, a program dedicated to helping mums navigate their transition back into the workforce.

In this week's episode of the Work it Like a Mum Podcast, we're joined by Anna Birbeck, Director of Regions & Partnerships at IN4 Group and the driving force behind the Mums in Data (MIND) programme.Anna breaks down why data roles are flexible, secure, future-proof, and far more accessible than you might think. We explore what data jobs really involve, why mums naturally excel in them, and how the MIND programme is supporting women to restart or pivot their careers with confidence.What We Cover:Why data and AI roles are perfect for working mumsThe real barriers mums face returning to work – and how to overcome themWhat a data analyst actually does (no jargon!)Why you don't need a tech or maths backgroundHow the 12-week Mums in Data programme sets you up for successApprenticeships as a confidence-boosting entry routeFlexible, remote, and family-friendly career optionsThe growing demand for women in data and AIHow mums' everyday skills are exactly what employers wantWhere to apply and how programme expansion follows demand Key Takeaways:No maths or tech background required, data roles rely more on curiosity and critical thinking than coding.Data careers are future-proof, in-demand, and offer real flexibility for school hours and family life.Mums already have the winning skill set: communication, problem-solving, pattern recognition, and emotional intelligence.A 12-week programme + apprenticeship pathway provides a supported, step-by-step route back into employment.Confidence is the main blocker, not ability, and the programme is built to rebuild that confidence gradually.Employers want returner mums, they're an untapped talent pool with highly valuable transferable skills.Why Listen:If you've wondered whether a career in data or AI could work for you,  especially after a career break or if you need more flexibility, this episode is a must-listen.Show Links: Connect with our host Elizabeth Willetts hereConnect with Anna on LinkedIn hereVisit IN4 Groups' website hereLearn more about the MIND programme hereRegister your interest to join the MIND programme here Support the showSign up for our newsletter and never miss an episode!Follow us on Instagram.

This week, we're talking all about productivity, and there's no better guest to guide us than Lucy Watkins, Head of Productivity at Salesforce and proud mum of two. Lucy doesn't just talk about getting more done. She lives and breathes it. She leads a global sales team while being a visible advocate for working parents. She also sponsors Salesforce's Parents and Families Equality Group, helping to shape how major companies support parents in the workplace. In this honest and energising conversation, Lucy shares the three pillars that help her balance high-impact leadership with real-life parenting. She talks about the mindset shift that helped her leave burnout behind, how she uses a weekly “family playbook” to create alignment at home, and why being a parent is actually the best leadership training you'll ever have. We explore time blocking, boundary-setting, relationship dynamics, how to ask for help, and why career ambition does not have to mean constant hustle. Lucy opens up about her own challenges, including how she and her partner rebuilt their home life from survival mode into something intentional, joyful, and sustainable. Whether you're knee-deep in nappies or navigating a promotion while managing school runs, this episode is packed with real talk and practical wisdom to help you feel more in control and less alone.

I speak with Renee Barnes, founder of the People Paradox, and fellow working mum about Superwoman Syndrome and why it is time to let go of the notion. Renee shares invaluable insights into the challenges and growth opportunities mothers face during this transformative journey and unrealistic expectations. Renee shares what is "Superwoman Syndrome", its origins, and how societal expectations contribute to this unrealistic ideal for working mothers. We discuss the significant mental and physical health impacts of striving to be a Superwoman and how you can redefine this moving forward and break free from the cycle.  Renee and I chat about the critical role employers play in a mother's return to work after parental leave. Renee highlights strategies for businesses to create a supportive environment and retain valuable talent, helping to let go of Superwoman Syndrome in this critical time. She stresses the importance of employers being proactive in discussing entitlements, flexible work opportunities, and creating a supportive culture.  This is an enlightening conversation with many tools, tips, and strategies to support you to let go of the notion of superwoman.    ************************************************************************* Connect with Renee via Instagram @found_learningmotherhood or her website The FOUND program Follow Working Mumma on Instagram @workingmummacommuity for regular inspiration and tips on working mum life or connect with Carina on LinkedIn www.linkedin.com/in/carina-obrien.  Get your free 'How to share the mental load' checklist workingmumma.com.au/mental-load/

There's a phrase we've all heard before: “It takes a village to raise a child.” But here's something we don't say enough, it also takes a village to raise a working mum. The “village” that used to exist, grandparents nearby, friendly neighbours, extended family, looks different for many of us. In this solo episode, Carina talks about the often-overlooked truth behind the working mum juggle: we weren't meant to do this alone. We used to raise children in villages, but today the concept of the village has changed.  During this episode Carina chat's about:  Why the traditional village has disappeared in Western culture The emotional toll of doing it all alone as a working mum Real-life reflections from a recent work trip abroad Practical ideas for creating your own support network Why every village looks different — and that's okay How to build a village from scratch (even when you're new in town)   Show links Follow Working Mumma on Instagram @workingmummacommunity Sign up for the Working Mumma newsletter  Get your free 'How to share the mental load' checklist workingmumma.com.au/mental-load/ Connect with Carina on LinkedIn

Is childcare worth the cost when most of your paycheck goes straight to daycare fees? In this powerful episode, financial advisor and mum of two, Deline Jacovides, opens up about how much she and her husband have spent on childcare over seven years, and why, despite the eye-watering figure, she'd do it all again. We unpack the true cost of childcare in Australia, the long-term impact on women's careers and superannuation, and the often-overlooked benefits, like career progression, independence, and child development. Deline also shares how she and her husband juggled part-time work, subsidies, and even brought in an au pair to make it all work. This is the honest childcare conversation every working parent needs to hear. Whether you're navigating daycare decisions now or planning for the future, you'll walk away with insights, budgeting tips, and the reassurance that your sacrifices today are an investment in your family's tomorrow. What You'll Learn: How Deline spent six figures on childcare and what she got in return The financial and emotional trade-offs of early childhood education How to budget for childcare, including fee increases and cashflow planning The career, superannuation, and identity costs of opting out of work Why childcare is a family cost, not just a mother's burden How legislation has (and hasn't) helped affordability for families   Show links: Connect with Deline on Instagram @maziwealth Listen to the previous episode of the Working Mumma with Deline "Managing the financial impact of motherhood with financial planner Deline Jacovides"   Connect with Working Mumma on Instagram @workingmummacommunity

On this episode of RNT Fitness Radio I'm joined by Rima Patel, who comes on to share her incredible journey with us at RNT. After winning one of our unprecedented giveaways in 2022, she joined with the goal to get into the best shape of her life. Rima was raising two children after a divorce trying to balance work and family. She hadn't felt good in her body after her two pregnancies but she didn't feel like she had any time to focus on her health. She'd tried many “quick fix” diets and exercise programmes but none of them seemed to stick. Rima was insecure in the way that she looked and wanted a change that would stick for good. And after going all in on the RNT Method, she has found a way to do it all…The programme allowed her to balance time with her family, work and time to exercise in a way that would last. Her 12kg weight loss was just the tip of the iceberg in terms of her results. Now 20 months into her journey, Rima's strength has gone through the roof! In fact, she'll share a story in this podcast from a recent trip to India which will share the power of this transformation better than I can do with this introduction.   Next steps:  1) Apply for 1-1 coaching: https://www.rntfitness.co.uk/pro/   2) Take our quiz to see if you're ready for a transformation: http://www.rntfitness.co.uk/transform   3) Get our free book shipped to your door: https://bit.ly/tybtylform   4) Try our free 28 day fat loss accelerator: https://www.rntfitness.co.uk/transformation-accelerator  5) Optimum Nutrition: RNT20 for 20% off Connect with RNT Fitness:  Website  Facebook  Instagram  YouTube  Email  Connect with Akash:  Facebook  Instagram  LinkedIn
