Summary

Work is a machine that will take, take, take, but only you can set the boundary. In this episode, Emma Harris is joined by Carly Avener and Lori Meakin to pull back the curtain on the 'Hunger Games' of the modern office. From the 'swanning' we do to hide the chaos, to the domestic burden women still shoulder, and the systemic shifts needed to finally close the gap. It’s a raw, necessary conversation about why we’re all so exhausted and how to stop playing a game that wasn’t built for us. TW: Sexual assault  Hosted on Acast.
