BUSINESS MUMS REAP REWARDS

- JARROD LAWLER

FOUR Tasmanian women excelling in the juggling act of raising kids and achieving a successful business career have been shortliste­d for major national awards.

Tassie mothers Angela Revell, Micheline Andrews, Claire Fielding and Stephanie Trethewey have all been named finalists in the 2021 AusMumpren­eur Awards.

The awards, presented by The Women’s Business School, celebrate and recognise Australian mums in business achieving outstandin­g success.

Former TV reporter Stephanie Trethewey has been named a finalist in two categories, Regional Business Award and Women’s Champion Award.

Mrs Trethewey is the founder and co-host of the Motherland Australia podcast, which shares the stories of motherhood told by rural women across the country.

“Being a mum, a lot of your workload is invisible and you often feel undervalue­d and my podcast is a way to combine my commitment as a mum with my skills as a journalist to champion rural motherhood,” Mrs Trethewey said.

Angela Revell is the co-founder of business management and IT support service Revellatio­n, and said she was proud of the work her and the other finalists were doing. Winners will be announced on September 8.
