The Modern Lady Podcast

When we think about "work" today, words like "drudgery", "toil" and "dull" tend to sum up the collective mood. But believe it or not, as human beings, we were MADE for labour and it is meant to sanctify us and elevate our dignity, whether it's at home or abroad. This week, Michelle and Lindsay chat about the history of work, how labour was always a part of the "plan" and how to view it through a lens that will ultimately leave us satisfied, fulfilled and dignified.

For us here at The Modern Lady Podcast, it is not *fully* the Christmas season until we have indulged in all of Nigella Lawson's holiday cooking specials!

We are pleased to present this next chapter of HER-Story, a Modern Lady Podcast occasional feature. Please join us for today's tale, and enjoy!

From decluttering to gift-giving to serving up the perfect boar's head for your holiday dinner, the ladies have got you covered!
