Watch Rosie Waterland's sold out talk at the All About Women Festival.

Today, from 1.30 – 2.30pm, our very own Rosie Waterland will be speaking at the All About Women festival in Sydney about ‘How to be Yourself’.

Her session at the event is now sold out but we have you covered.

You are all invited to join us here for a special live stream video of Rosie’s talk from the All About Women festival.

Join us to watch, share, laugh and learn as Rosie takes us through her complicated path to self-acceptance, and what it means to truly be yourself in 2016. Watch with some snacks, your favourite Bachie memorabilia, a warm embrace from your cat, and with NO PANTS ON – you know Rosie would want it that way.

All About Women is in its fourth year, and is a full day of discussions about ideas that are important to women. Hosted at the Sydney Opera House, the festival provides a platform for some of the most influential female voices to be heard in the lead up to International Women’s Day.

Featuring 30 women from all over the world, the festival explores issues such as violence, masculinity, inequality, female incarceration, and the power of female memoirs.

And it’s no surprise that Rosie Waterland is featured in this year’s line-up, alongside Piper Kerman (best-selling author of Orange is the New Black: My Year in a Women’s Prison), Carrie Brownstein (music icon and Emmy-nominated actor), and Jenny Brockie (Australian journalist and documentary maker).

In the last few years, Rosie has been busy building an international fanbase by writing her seriously-stop-my-stomach-hurts-this-is-so-funny Bachelor and Bachelorette recaps, and releasing her debut memoir ‘The Anti-Cool Girl’ in 2015.

Despite being the anti-cool girl, Rosie is doing some pretty cool things at the moment. She’s writing her second book, recording her hilarious podcast The Binge with the Mamamia Podcast Network, speaking at distinguised events such as the Perth Writers Festival, and continuing to write gutsy and honest stories that make us cry with laughter.

So join us here on Sunday.
