Ep.13 Nicole Boulton - Planning cities for women

In this episode, I chat with Nicole Boulton.

Nicole is Principal Planner at PSA consulting and the new Chair of the Professional development committee at Planning Institute of Australia Queensland division. 

Nicole is also a mother of 2 young children, a wife, and volunteers on her son‘s P&C Committee. 

I chat with Nicole about her new role as PD chair, as well as ask her about work life balance and she shares her top tips to juggling it all. This includes a great reminder (during mental health awareness week) to check in with yourself about your mental health. 

The main topic of this conversation is Nicole‘s passion of planning for women. Nicole shares some of her research on the key issues affecting women in cities, and what we might do to address these, including an interesting case study from Vienna.
