After experiencing climate anxiety, Lizzy Nash realised she had to be part of the solution. "And the only way I could think to do that was to use the skills I’d honed over my filmmaking career," she says. In this piece, she shares more about her decision to be part of the climate solution, spending the next three and a half years working with researchers, mental health experts, production teams and a Teen Advisory Board to create a 28-episode series, Stay Tuned To Our Planet (STTOP).

News and views for career-minded women.
About us
Women's Agenda is a publication for career-minded, time-poor women who want to stay ahead of the conversation. Our team of coffee-loving, media junkies enjoy nothing more than waking up early to make your business day better. We determine the day's agenda before most people hit snooze on their smart phones, so you can get informed and productive. Our morning update features an edit of the day's key issues - a quick conversational scan to help you prepare for any elevator ride - as well as our latest views on making careers, work and business better for women. We're an independent publication first launched by Private Media in 2012 and acquired by its founding editor Angela Priestley in 2016. Our business survives off advertising, sponsors, and by helping organisations with content strategy and marketing, especially those looking to engage women. After publishing more than 1000 newsletters, 7000 stories and managing dozens of events, we intimately understand the needs and desires of career-minded, time-poor women. Indeed, we are such women ourselves! We're busy and sleep deprived but seriously passionate about what we do. We also all work flexibly, managing priorities ranging from kids, to travel, to writing books and building businesses. Get in touch with us at admin@womensagenda.com.au

During my labour, I was silenced when I began to sing—an instinct I now believe could have helped me, writes Claire Tonti. Our voices matter, and they deserve to be heard. If I had been allowed to express myself, perhaps my experience, and my son’s, might have been different. ⤵️ #birthtrauma #matrescence #motherhood

Menopause is a $10 billion problem for Australian companies but smart policies can change that. It’s estimated that 10 per cent of women leave work prematurely due to the effects of menopause, costing Aussie companies billions every year. Progressive companies are changing this and it's transforming the lives of women: https://lnkd.in/g8wW2QAS

For professional athletes, injuries can have a devastating impact on their career. It can be tough to ever come back. But Stella Veith’s philosophy as a physiotherapist is to always look on the bright side of things. “I think we can always learn from challenges, and I think any injury is just a challenge we can learn from, and do other things we maybe wouldn’t get the chance if that injury wasn’t there,” she says. Veith has been the head physiotherapist for the CommBank Junior Matildas (U17 Women’s National Team) for the past four years. Having just wrapped up her PhD studies investigating injury patterns and injury reduction strategies in adolescent footballers, she is now taking part in Football Australia’s OUR GAME: Play Unstoppable Mentorship Program as a mentor for the next generation.

When we hold the metric (consciously or unconsciously) of ‘busyness’ as a predictor of impact, effectiveness or value, we risk working really hard, but not actually getting to where we want to go. Claire Seeber shares her personal experience with pushing herself into a constant state of overwhelm, and some key lessons for your own career growth (and fulfilment) ⤵️
I pushed myself to overwhelm to compensate for my perceived shortcomings at work. It was my biggest career mistake

I am deeply concerned that the strain on families caused by the current cost-of-living crisis will have long-term impacts on children’s wellbeing, writes Dr Katrina Lines. This is despite them having parents who love them and are trying to do their best. Poverty is a complex issue, but as a nation we cannot afford to sit idly by and watch as children continue to suffer. ⤵️ #ChildPoverty #AntiPovertyWeek
Child poverty is happening right here on our doorstep. We must act now

Menopause is not merely a medical transition; it’s a critical workplace gender and age equality issue that can impact physical health, mental wellbeing, and professional performance, writes Lisa Annese. Yet, too often, it remains shrouded in stigma and silence. We must take a wholistic approach that is data led and informed by the lived experiences of women, encompassing job design, flexibility, inclusive leadership, and ending the stigma on menopause and women’s health. #WorldMenopauseDay #menopause
