Welcome to BIZ - the podcast that's rewriting the rules of work for a new generation. Join Em Vernem (ambitious but efficient), Michelle Battersby (launched Bumble APAC) and Soph Hirst (ex-Google) as they tackle everything from dealing with difficult bosses to knowing if your side hustle can become your career. In this first episode: 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? 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.

Where do you start when you're planning a holiday that needs to be accessible for a wheelchair? What questions do you need to ask hotels? And how do you make sure you’ll be able to do all the activities you want to? For the past 22 years, Julie Jones and her family have been asking these questions. Julie's son Braeden was diagnosed with Cerebral Palsy which means he's non-verbal and uses a wheelchair. But that hasn’t stopped them travelling the world. From seeing glaciers in New Zealand to hiking Kakadu and cruising the South Pacific, they’ve seen a lot. Julie Jones is trying to change the way we think about accessible travel and she's sharing her story with Holly... CREDITS Host: Holly Wainwright With thanks to: Julie Jones.

If you are always testing the luggage weight limit at the airport, you need to meet Lexi Connors. She is all about minimalist travel, and is trying to reduce her travel footprint by taking as little with her as she can. Later this year, she's heading off around the world for a whole year with only one, small, carry-on bag. So why did she want to become a minimalist traveller? And how do you even begin to cut down your items to just a backpack?

In July 2017, Justin and Lauren Jones set off across the desert on a trek that lasted more than a hundred days. The terrain was extreme. The walk was grueling. And they took their toddler Morgan with them. Yes, their toddler. Crazy? Let's find out... They started on the border of Western Australia and the Northern Territory and made their way down to Port Augusta in South Australia. Justin pulled a 280kg trolley filled with nappies and water, while Lauren pulled their daughter Morgan - and tried to stop her climbing out of the cart every 5 minutes. So how do you prepare for this? How do you know where you’re going? What do you eat? How much water do you take? How do you entertain a toddler in a small cart? We asked, and they answered.

Have you heard of digital nomads? They're the people travelling the world who aren't on holiday. Magazine editor, author and writer Amy Molloy decided to go traveling in South America for four months but never miss a deadline, filing stories from the shores of Lake Titicaca and writing a book at Machu Picchu. It didn't quite work out like that... These days Amy works from her South Coast home and is just the person to tell us whether the newly imagined working holiday - one where you’re always at your laptop - is all it’s cracked up to be.
