Description

<p>In this episode of IMAGE The Motherload, Dominique McMullan is joined by <strong>Sonya Lennon</strong> for a conversation about what it really takes to create change for women and families in Ireland.</p><br><p>Together, they explore why issues like the childcare crisis and the gender pay gap cannot be solved by asking women to cope better, but by redesigning the systems that created the problems in the first place. As Sonya puts it,<em> “We spend so much time reacting to the damage downstream. Real change comes when we throw the pebble further upstream.”</em></p><br><p>From workplace equity and flexible working to leadership, money and the invisible mental load carried by mothers, this episode invites listeners to look beyond individual struggle and towards collective responsibility. It’s a potent reminder that change is possible… when we ask better questions and build better systems.</p><br><p><em>IMAGE The Motherload is powered by Peugeot, and sponsored by Liffey Valley, Revive Active, Avoca and Aptamil Advanced&nbsp;</em></p><p><br></p><hr><p style='color:grey; font-size:0.75em;'> Hosted on Acast.
