In Conversation with Jamila Rizvi
Jamila Rizvi is an author, activist, podcaster, and gender equality advocate. She has worked in politics, was the editor in chief of Mamamia, she’s written and edited multiple, highly acclaimed books and is currently the Deputy Managing Director of Future Women.
Jamila is someone I’ve admired for a long time and have felt speaks to a lot of feminist issues I am passionate about from motherhood, to the care economy to opening up the binary when it comes to men’s fashion.
I reached out to Jamila for a chat with the hope of learning a little bit more about her process and her success and she did not disappoint.
We start by chatting about where we grew up and Jamila shares with me that she was a Canberra kid &#; which makes perfect sense considering her early career in politics.

By Jamila Rizvi and Rosie Waterland
Release date: 6 May
At the age of 31 Jamila Rizvi was diagnosed with a rare brain tumour. When she shared her diagnosis with loved ones, good friend Rosie Waterland proposed the tumour eventually be named ‘Jam’s Jerky’ and kept on display in a jar.
While this sensitive proposal was politely declined, there was a reason Jamila had turned to Rosie for support. Rosie knows what it’s like to live with a broken brain. After a childhood of abuse and neglect, she had been dealing with significant trauma symptoms for years.
Jamila and Rosie soon discovered their broken brains had more in common than they could ever have imagined.
In this brave and honest book, they share their parallel experiences of being sick, alongside the advice of those who’ve been there before. Broken Brains offers exactly what both Jamila and Rosie wish they’d had at the height of their illnesses: comfort, solidarity, understanding and lots of l
