Episode 118: Women in the Workforce: A Conversation with Bobbi


Listen Later

I’m so excited to introduce my sister, Bobbi, in this episode! My sister is my rock, someone whom I can bounce ideas off of, and whom I respect and admire. We choose separate paths in life, me being an entrepreneur, and her being CEO of a large non-profit. Regardless of our difference in work, we see the same patterns concerning females in the workforce, and in general.

 

In today’s episode we discuss:

  • Struggles that women face in the workforce;
  • Our experiences with imposter syndrome and how to combat these feelings;
  • Insecurity in the workforce;
  • Why women championing women is important;
  • Getting a message across using empathy;
  • Personal experiences dealing with men vs. women at work;
  • Mindset and confidence in a male-dominated world;
  • Some shocking statistics;
  • Why female-dominated fields are historically low paying;
  • Philosophies on how a male-dominated workforce came to be;
  • Raising men to be allies of women
  • Women bring a unique set of highly beneficial skills to the workplace, so why does it seem they’re being punished for it? It’s a controversial topic, but it’s one worth exploring and creating a dialogue around. Have you experienced anything like this in your life or within your office? Share your stories!
