    Super game plan

    Everybody likes to imagine their retired future self kickin’ back and enjoying the fruits of our labour. But that dream is quickly punctured by the fact that Australian women are retiring with roughly 40% less superannuation than men and 1 in 3 women have little or no super. Hosts Cal and Santi level up to decode the super system and find a better retirement game plan for women.

    Work in progress

    In this episode Cal and Santi are talking work, getting paid what you are worth, and how a job is so much more than just a job. There’s still lots to be done about women’s equality but luckily there are folks on the job (pun intended) to ensure the work that women do is counted, respected and fairly remunerated. To quote Barbadian businesswoman and singer-songwriter Rhianna: “Work, work, work, work, work, work.” Indeed!
