International Women’s Day 2019 is a chance for companies, individuals, and societies to take an honest look at gender equality – both to celebrate how far we’ve all come, and to keep pushing forwards in leaps and bounds.

This year’s International Women’s Day campaign theme is #BalanceforBetter, which is all about promoting a more gender-balanced world, and here at Upside, we couldn’t be more excited to embrace an idea that we truly believe in.

As much as our business structure is fantastic for our clients, we also work to ensure it’s fantastic for our talented local agents. For International Women’s Day, we asked one of our agents, Lori, for her thoughts on working at Upside.

This Melbourne mum talks about her experience in being part of the team, and why she’s not part of the group of women who have had to leave behind jobs in order to care for their children – but we’ll let you have a listen to hear it in her own words!
