Mary Chalmers on cut throat razors, a love of cooking, and a frozen cane toad named Joel.
Description
The juggle is real for Kathleen, who during this episode had a work computer, a podcast computer, a work phone and a solo toddler all at once. She's solo parenting while Steve surprised us by going fishing (it's the run off don't you know).
It's been a week for Molly, who can't even string a sentence together but somehow manages a thrilling conversation about toilet training.
Enter this week's guest - Mary Chalmers, the 51st most powerful person in the Northern Territory.
An absolute boss in the court room, she’s one of the Territory’s most high profile barristers, but you wouldn’t even know she dropped out of high school to start training as a hairdresser.
After a very close call with a cut throat razor and a client's ear, it was very clear it wasn’t the career path for her.
Having found her way into law, she’s now a mum of two teenagers, calling on her own experiences as a headstrong teen and knowing when to pick your battles.
