Episode Topic: What Makes Work Meaningful (A Feminist Intervention)
Why does care work feel fulfilling on some days, and infuriating on others? What could success look like if we divorce it from individualism and achievement? In this episode, listen in to a conversation with Paul Blaschko '19 Ph.D., Director of the Sheedy Family Program and assistant teaching professor in philosophy at Notre Dame, about how feminist thinkers are reworking western definitions of meaning and success. We’ll consider Ursula Le Guin’s 1982 New Yorker short story “Sur” to illustrate.

Women’s Work is sponsored on ThinkND by the Sheedy Family Program in Economy, Enterprise & Society at the University of Notre Dame and Notre Dame Women Connect.

Featured Speakers:
- Paul Blaschko '19 Ph.D., University of Notre Dame
