In this week’s episode, I discuss the importance of mentorship and support among women, particularly focusing on the role of Gen X women in inspiring and guiding younger generations to take on leadership roles. We look at the differences in career values between Gen X and millennials and the need for experienced women to help younger women navigate leadership challenges.

This conversation also stresses the importance of building trust and respect before offering our advice or encouragement to young women. I ask Gen X women to be proactive about mentorship and sponsorship to ensure astrong future for women in leadership positions.

In this conversation, we examine moments where women's ideas are overlooked until they are repeated (a.k.a. “he-peated”) by male colleagues. I’ll address the professional and emotional impact this has on us and offer practical strategies to gracefully reclaim credit for your ideas at work, without sounding petty or damaging relationships.

This episode emphasizes the importance of effective communication, humor, and visual pitching to ensure ideas are recognized and attributed correctly. Listen in so and plan a fresh approach that will boost your relationships and credibility.
