Show Notes

Introducing How Far We’ve Come, a 6-part dive into the history of women's financial freedom and independence in Australia. In this episode, we go back to the early 1880s and The Married Women's Property Act, because there was a time when Aussie women couldn’t own their home or business. We will also take a look at how it impacts homeownership rates today and the work still to do.
