There has never been more pressure on women to be everything. At work, at home, on social media, in the mirror. And always, always in our own heads where the pressure feels at times unbearable.”

One of Australia’s most successful women and public figures, Mia Freedman, somehow found the time to write a book. In an honest conversation with Sharri Markson over wine, cheese and dessert, Mia will talk about work/life balance, being a voice for modern day women, and why she chose to write a book about her struggles, rather than her successes.

 

This is a PWF event, for women only
