In Her Shoes: An International Women's Day conversation

  • Summary

  • Our three guests share their unique experiences and perspectives on being a woman at work, in the home and in the church.

    Maryanne Davis discovered that Parliament House was a boys' club long before Brittany Higgins. When Maryanne started work there 40 years ago, it was "an incredibly sexist place". Fortunately, God had other plans for Maryanne. She went on to become a school principal, teacher and mentor who has impacted the lives of thousands of girls.

    Diana grew up in Uganda with her single mum, three sisters and brother. Her mum was the only woman in the neighbourhood who worked outside the home. Now Diana is passing on her mum's example as a "strong, independent and confident" woman to her own children.

    Amy went to an all-girls school in Melbourne and worked hard to become a lawyer. But when a work retreat ended with the suggestion to visit a strip club, Amy's values as a woman and a Christian were challenged. She has since left the legal profession and now runs her own well-being business that helps Millennials to flourish.

    We chat with these women about prejudice, glass ceilings, headship and their hopes for the future, as well as what International Women's Day means to them.
