Introducing 'BIZ': How To Ask For More Money (Without Dying From Awkwardness)
FEB 3, 2025
Introducing 'BIZ': How To Ask For More Money (Without Dying From Awkwardness)

Asking for a pay rise is about as comfortable as explaining to your boss why you've been late three times this week. But what if there was a way to do it that actually works?

Host 
Em Vernem gets Biz career coaches Michelle Battersby and Soph Hirst to share their proven framework for getting what you want at work (spoiler: don't mention your expensive oat latte habit).
Plus, they bust the myths about asking every year, using other job offers as leverage, and what to do if you get a 'no'.

Consider this your cheat sheet to having the money conversation - minus the awkward sweating.

What you’ll learn:
- The framework that does the hard work for you
- What to ask for if they can't give you more money
- The exact words to say to your boss (and what never to say)

Extra: Are Podcast Gurus Ruining Our Mental Health?

In the age where it seems everyone has a podcast, the rise of the podcast guru has captured the attention of many. 

With millions of people subscribing, listening & sharing, it seems they've become the new font of knowledge for all things health & happiness. 

But are these podcasters the best place to turn? And what happens when their credibility starts to crumble?

EXCLUSIVE: Naomi Watts Is Done With Secrets And Shame

The world knows Naomi Watts as one of the most iconic and accomplished actors of her generation - from The Ring to Mulholland Drive, King Kong to The Impossible - and so much more.

But Naomi Watts is starring in a new role now…the role of author and advocate and innovator for menopausal women. She’s written an incredible new book, Dare I Say It: Everything I Wish I’d Known About Menopause. But before she could write it - she had to wrestle with the strong sense of shame she carried around her own experiences - which she shares with Mia Freedman in this special conversation.

You can find Naomi’s book, Dare I Say It, here.

You can follow Naomi on Instagram, here.

Introducing 'Diary Of A Birth': Clare Stephens' Birth Story

Clare Stephens endured an exhausting and sometimes terrifying birthing experience - and came out of it with an amazing perspective that every pregnant mum needs to hear.

Clare’s experience covers pregnancy anxiety, a long labour and a difficult epidural and her story-telling makes this an amazing listen.

Diary Of A Birth features mums telling their miraculous stories of bringing life into the world, and we have all medical questions and concerns cleared up by one of Australia’s favourite paediatricians, Dr Golly.

If you’d like to share your birth story, we’d love to hear from you at podcast@mamamia.com.au or send us a voice note here.
