Vicky Spratt reports on housing and society. Her Make Rent Fair campaign led to the introduction of the Tenants Fee Act, which has resulted in the ban on letting fees for tenants renting in the private sector. Her first book, Tenants, will be published next year. Her work centres on a central theme – how the mechanisms of class structure in this country inform our social policy and affect all of our lives, whether we realise it or not.


The three of us sit down and have a hard conversation about privilege and we get to grips with how difficult it is for those from diverse backgrounds to break into elite professions.

Anna shares her experience of going self-employed after losing her job in a round of redundancy. She talks about how she found the experience of working for herself a lot more fulfilling and empowering than she’d expected but that at the same time, the solution to feeling discontented in a job can't be for everyone to just quit. 


We then discuss what the rise in freelancing, particularly among women, tells us about work culture as a whole (spoiler alert: it’s broken.) 


In our final segment, we talk about what we can do to improve our individual situations if we’re struggling with a work problem and what needs to change on a macro level to make work better suited for everyone.

]]> Time: why do we feel like we never have enough of it? Time: why do we feel like we never have enough of it? Mon, 22 Jul 2019 06:00:00 GMT 47:24 5d30b89ed166430e07574455 true https://shows.acast.com/is-this-working/episodes/season-1-episode-1 5d30b89ed166430e07574455 5d3043b72bd3198f7e6a2d80 season-1-episode-1 full 1 1 Our first episode of Is This Working, the podcast that questions the impact of work on lives, is on time and how many of us feel like it’s our biggest enemy. 


Tiffany shares how she found herself lying on her sofa one morning, speeding up YouTube videos on productivity hacks because she felt like she didn’t have enough time to get everything done.


We get philosophical, unpicking where the mindset that time is in scarcity comes from and how that impacts our feelings of productivity and achievement.


We also share our tips on how to manage our time better and how to think smarter about how we’re using it.
