    WWYD: my fiancé went to the strippers on his buck’s night
    2026/04/14

    It’s time to open the mailbox!

    QUESTION #1: my fiancé went to the strippers on his buck’s night. He told me straight away and he can’t stand the thought of cheating, but I can’t get the thought of another woman sitting naked on his lap, out of my head

    QUESTION #2: I’m 18 weeks pregnant and I’m really struggling with family commenting on my body using words like "fatty" or "oh yes, your gut is getting bigger" when I barely have a bump

  • Six must‑know leadership & career lessons - with founder & journalist Helen McCabe

    Six must‑know leadership & career lessons - with founder & journalist Helen McCabe
    2026/04/07

    Hello!! Every now and then we’ll be publishing episodes that we’re calling ‘Business Lessons’ where we speak with business owners, founders, and folks with careers that we admire and ask them about the lessons they’ve picked up along the way.

    For this episode - Laura sat down with Founder & Managing Director of FW, Helen McCabe. FW is an inclusive, member-led organisation committed to achieving gender equality in Australian workplaces. Previously Helen spent more than a decade as a journalist at News Corp and as Editor-in-Chief of The Australian Women's Weekly.

    In this conversation, Helen & Laura discuss the way that women most commonly describe their leadership style, the skills that good leaders need to master, differences between male & female leaders, introverts as leaders, and whether or not women still need to be likeable.

    We also answer one of your questions: As a Gen X woman who built my career proving my commitment through hard work, I’m finding it challenging to adjust to younger generations who set very clear boundaries around their time and workload. How do I reconcile my work ethic in a workplace culture that values balance differently?

    HELEN & FW

    Find out more about FW here https://www.futurewomen.com/

    Follow FW on Instagram @futurewomen

    Listen to Helen’s podcast Future Women Leadership Series https://podcasts.apple.com/au/podcast/future-women-leadership-series/id1469503665

    This is the episode about martyrs that Helen & Laura discuss https://podcasts.apple.com/au/podcast/lizzie-young-on-workplace-martyrs/id1469503665?i=1000660352733

    WWYD: can I be pissed at my partner for this?
    2026/03/31

    We loooove these episodes! This time your questions are about whether or not you’re overreacting over something your partner did, and how to let go of a long-term friend.

    QUESTION #1: my partner attended an event that I said we couldn’t go to. Is it okay to be pissed off with him or am I overreacting?

    QUESTION #2: how should I let go of a long-term friend whose negativity is bringing me down?

    2026/03/29
    We watched Louis Theroux: Inside The Manosphere and we want to talk about it. Plus - we share some disturbing data from a recent study that found that Gen-Z are more likely than Baby Boomers to hold traditional views about gender roles. But alongside all of that we also share some positive stories: how men have escaped the manosphere, male creators we love, and your message about how listening to this podcast has given you the knowledge & confidence to start conversions about gender equality in real life.
