In the same week that Trump’s press secretary Karoline Leavitt stood down for “family reasons”, following the birth of her second baby, Democrat Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez has been video-documenting her egg-freezing journey. Both women, from two very sides of the political spectrum, proving the “women can have it all” misnomer is still supercharged. 

One thing’s for sure: Donald Trump is going to miss his right-hand woman. 

Madeline Hislop explores the 5 female frontrunners tipped to take over Leavitt’s role. 

To health, and we share this amazing story from Lindsey Cartwright who, at 47, was diagnosed with liposarcoma—a malignant cancer that develops in fat cells. The experience spurred her into the adventure of a lifetime and the mental reset to seize every small moment. 

And finally, three women-founded and led Australian companies have been nominated for the prestigious Prix Galien USA Awards, which are widely regarded as medical innovation’s top prize. Read about them, here! 

Make time for you. Between work, family, and everyday commitments, it's easy to forget to simply be. A walk with Tasmanian Walking Company creates that space, with days immersed in nature alongside expert guides and evenings of good food and deep restoration - like Molly's wildly comfortable adventure on the Three Capes Track. Nothing to organise, nowhere else to be, just the freedom to slow down and feel like yourself again. (Partner Message)

Enjoy your weekend!
