If not kids then what? For many people the answer is a consuming career. Like many millennial women, Gina entered the workforce during the rise of the #girlboss and spent the next decade watching and experiencing the death of a dream in which a job could be an identity. This week on The Dilemma we explore what we internalise about what makes a good worker, what makes a good mother and what makes a good life. 

Host: Gina Rushton

Executive producer: Kara Jensen-Mackinnon

Guests: Gabrielle Moss, Amanda Montei, Hannah Ferguson
