We find the wins in an otherwise difficult week on progress for women at work, given what's happened in parliament. We look at a new app for reporting racism and sexual misconduct, the Hollywood actors calling out ageism, and share an excellent interview with Effie Zahos, author and one of Australia's leading personal finance commentators.
But also this week we delve into the 'dehumanising' of sexual assault victim-survivors that has occurred via the media and in politics, and whether women are being sent a message to 'watch out'.
Finally, we examine the research finding that when men believe they are allies, women often disagree.
Effie is one of Australia's leading personal finance commentators with more than two decades of experience helping Australians make the most of their money.
Stories mentioned this week include:
