“What To Do When Your Super Ain’t Super”

How much superannuation do you have? How much have you got in the bank for retirement? How much do you plan to put away in the future, be it over the next two, ten or thirty years? This stuff matters. It’s critical you take an interest in it before retiring. In fact, the earlier you get serious about your super, the better life you’ll live after 65.

“How To Get Hired”

There’s no two ways about it, job interviews are terrifying. But just like public speaking, applying for a new job is a skill and that means through practice and hard work you can always get better.

“Baby Hold On! We’re Going On Leave”

There is nothing quite like pregnancy and birth to bring on all the emotions.

Episode Four

“Please Sir, Can I Have Some More”

Do you know how much your best mate earns? How about the bloke sitting in the cubicle beside you at work – what’s his salary? The dirty business of money has never been the stuff of polite conversation and women especially tend to report that they feel funny talking about it… But today Jamila is asking you to change all that.

Episode Three

“We need to talk about cupcakes”

Question: How many blokes does it take to organise a birthday cake and card for a beloved colleague? Answer: None. Jamila talks office housework, emotional labour and why it might be time for you to retire.

Episode Two
