Is This A Job?
Sisters - Raewyn Pickering and Adrienne Pickering wanna know how people in Australia are able to live a creative life, feel fulfilled, and also afford things. Is this even a job?? We’re going to talk to all our friends and comrades, work out what they do, how did they get into it, would they recommend it? Raewyn Pickering is a successful standup comedian, performing in clubs all around Melbourne but also has a ”day job” as a farmer that she really loves, and that pays the rent. Is that what it means to be fulfilled? Adrienne Pickering is an accomplished actor, starring in tv shows such as Rake (ABC), House of Bond (Channel 9), and most recently in Surviving Summer (Netflix). She’s most recently navigating the era of mumhood - are you still an actor if you’re not currently acting?
