We've noticed a trend this week, in women giving up dreams and their biggest ambitions to make the ultimate of all stands.

In MP Catherine Cusack's case, it was a resignation over the "selective" way flood relief payments are being issued. And for Dr Monique Ryan, it's in her decision to give away a dream job to challenge a sitting Treasurer for a seat in parliament.

Tarla Lambert and Madeline Hislop discuss all this and more, including NRLW pay increases, women protesting in Russia and that horrendous "Women's Network" logo that looked like a penis.
