    WWYD: how do I tell my best friend she won’t be my bridesmaid?

    It’s time to open the mailbox! This week you sent in questions about picking bridesmaids and your partner being uncomfortable with you having a male friend. QUESTION #1: I have 3 best friends and a sister which makes choosing bridesmaids really difficult. I’d love to have all of them but having bridesmaids is very costly. How would you break it to a best friend that you won’t be having her as a bridesmaid? QUESTION #2: I’ve recently become friends with my partner’s (straight, male) friend. My partner has mentioned a couple times that he feels at times uncomfortable with the dynamic. How do I navigate this without feeling like I’m being told who I can or can’t be friends with? WE MENTIONED The episode where we talk about sex dreams is called ‘What is your sex dream trying to tell you?’  https://pod.fo/e/3b874e SEND US YOUR QUESTIONS If you have a question you want our opinion on, please slide into our DMs on Instagram!

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

    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?

    What is your sex dream trying to tell you?

    Hello! First we want to talk about dreams! Yes we know hearing other people’s dreams is SO boring but we wanted to know - why do we have romantic dreams about people who aren’t our partners?

Now that Steph’s hair is officially long again…does she miss the bob? Plus! A life admin accomplishment. SPECIAL SHARES Steph: Kiss All the Time.
