Imagine what an easy life we'd have if they were followed by our colleagues, our friends, our partners, and the strangers we encounter.

Women are framed as heroes, their lives reduced to neat arcs of struggle and triumph. These stories inspire, but they also individualise what are deeply structural problems.

Just like making a sandwich doesn’t make you a chef.

This piece is about what happens when communication is treated as familiarity rather than expertise, how that erodes motivation, and why strong comms depends on trust, not crowding the kitchen.]]></description><link>https://www.christineredmond.com/post/unlocking-effective-communication-strategies-for-businesses</link><guid isPermaLink="false">69594516bd1cfb4bde793bd7</guid><pubDate>Fri, 02 Jan 2026 16:34:30 GMT</pubDate><enclosure url="https://static.wixstatic.com/media/887e29_d6ba3864fe674041859bb5068dfc4702~mv2.png/v1/fit/w_1000,h_720,al_c,q_80/file.png" length="0" type="image/png"/><dc:creator>Christine Redmond</dc:creator></item><item><title><![CDATA[Digital Tone Policing: Are Women Held to a Different Standard?]]></title><description><![CDATA[Women are more likely to be judged on how they say things than on what they say. In digital communication, that scrutiny often shows up in tone.

This piece explores tone policing in the workplace, the gendered emotional labour behind it, and why unequal communication standards quietly shape who feels safe to speak.]]></description><link>https://www.christineredmond.com/post/engaging-content-creation-captivate-your-audience-today</link><guid isPermaLink="false">6959450abaf6b49521a82972</guid><pubDate>Thu, 01 Jan 2026 16:34:18 GMT</pubDate><enclosure url="https://static.wixstatic.com/media/887e29_172f494c920e45f48d3c72ac85ff4312~mv2.png/v1/fit/w_1000,h_720,al_c,q_80/file.png" length="0" type="image/png"/><dc:creator>Christine Redmond</dc:creator></item><item><title><![CDATA[Phone Bans in Schools: A Missed Opportunity for Digital Education?]]></title><description><![CDATA[Banning phones may reduce disruption, but it doesn’t teach young people how to manage distraction, navigate online harm, or understand digital power dynamics.
