The podcast for and about mums who make work, work, brought to you by two sort of cousins Loz (mum of three) and Lu (mum of two). Each Monday, we banter on all things motherhood, feminism, career, ambition, and pop culture. Thursdays, we answer three listener questions on all things motherhood and career. As an extension of the motherhood/career conversation, each month, you'll also find an interview with a real mum that's definitely not doing it all, but rather, doing her best to navigate it all.

DEAR READY OR NOT: What do you do when your mat leave cover takes your job? Is double the salary worth working five days? And what do you do when your three-day job doesn’t fit into three days?

Atong Atem: “Gossip has been a tool to keep women safe”
As I listen back to the incredibly funny and clever and cool and curious artist and mother, Atong Atem, whose worked with the likes of Tate Modern in London and the NGV more locally here in Melbourne, the first question I ask in this interview is challenging me a little. You'll have to listen to find out why.
From motherhood to friendship to womanhood to racism to career to making work, work alongside parenting - this is a conversation about life more than anything, and I’m better for having it. I think you will be too. So let’s hear it.
