A Podcast of One’s Own with Julia Gillard
Society & Culture:Personal Journals
Julia talks to Emma Watkins, aka Emma Wiggle, the first and only woman to be part of Australia’s hit children’s entertainment group the Wiggles. She talks about dealing with backlash when she became the first female Wiggle, how she connected with mothers all over the world when she developed the painful condition endometriosis, and how she encourages children to be themselves, free from stereotypes, so that “boys can be Emma too”.
