The Maternity Crisis

02/15/24 • 35 min

In this solo episode, I'm going to be setting the scene for the mini series ahead. So today we are talking about equity and maternity. My starting point for the season was a story I read about the growing number of women on maternity leave who were being forced to use food banks. I started there, and this episode and this season ahead is where we went.

Being Luminary becomes Nothing Without Us

Hi, I have an announcement, we are changing the name of the Being Luminary podcast, we're actually kind of introducing a brand new podcast. It's still going to be me, Angie Browne, I'm still going to be the host. And we're still going to be talking about diversity, equity and inclusion, of course. And I'm still going to be inviting every day, but by no means ordinary luminaries onto the podcast to have conversations with me. But we have had a change of face. And we have had a change of tune. And we have kind of had a change of structure. We've also changed the name.

So I'm excited to launch our new podcast, Nothing Without Us. Our first episode will be on Thursday, the 15th of February. You don't need to do a thing - just continue listening here, and the show will change for you.
