Ep 56: What if we stopped playing by the rules?

Season 3 · Episode 56

Wednesday, September 16, 2026 • Duration 23:54

Equal-ish is back for Year Two!

After 55 episodes exploring the research, systems and social norms that make equity at home so difficult, Kate and Rachel are back, and this year they're asking a different question:

What if knowing what's hard isn't enough?

We've learned a lot over the last year. We've explored all the latest research that explain why equity at home is so hard. We know about workplace barriers. We know how gender norms shape parenting, relationships and family life.

And yet... we still find ourselves doing the very things we know we shouldn't.

Rachel puts up barriers to taking time for herself. Kate finds herself exhausted after trying to make everyone else happy.

So in Year Two we're going beyond diagnosis.

This season, Equal-ish is widening the conversation, exploring the stories we tell ourselves, the habits we inherit, the expectations we never consciously chose, and the unexpected ideas that might help us do things differently.

From boyhood and dad brains to storytelling, AI, anger, adolescence and the everyday ways we divide up family life, Kate and Rachel are looking beyond the usual suspects and asking:

What other ideas, perspectives and possibilities could help us write our own rules?

We're not here to tell you how to have the perfect family. We're figuring it out too.

Welcome to Year Two of Equal-ish.

And remember: if it were easy to be equal-ish, we wouldn't need this podcast.
