Achieving your dreams in the in-between | Dr Megan Rogers | TEDxMaldonWomen

Women have never been more busy or more stressed. With household budgets stretched and women doing, on average, twenty-one hours more unpaid work than men a week, it can seem impossible, overwhelming and selfish to carve out time for ourselves. But what if mothers taking small steps towards their dreams is one of the most powerful ways we can take great strides towards gender equality? In this candid talk, Rogers shares her own journey and the four ways she believes mothers can pursue their dreams in the in-between. Dr Megan Rogers has a PhD in creative writing and has published academic papers on gender equality. She has worked in senior positions in the arts and government, and works at understanding how women can balance earning a living with creative pursuits. This year she had her now bestselling debut novel published with Harper Collins Australia by figuring out how to balance running a household, working a job with writing a novel. She believes that empowering women to have the time and space to chase their dreams is an important part of gender equality. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at https://www.ted.com/tedx
