It's International Women's Day, so I spent some time learning about the gender pay gap and in today's episode, I'm discussing strategies women can use to overcome systemic barriers and close the pay gap in their own careers and advancement.

In this episode, I explore:

- The data of the gender pay gap

- The history of International Women's Day and the patriarchal systems that have led to women's oppression

- How the pay gap impacts women throughout their careers and widens over time, especially for mothers

- Strategies women can use to close the pay gap, like collaboration over competition, building networks, negotiating beyond just salary, and considering entrepreneurship
