This episode discusses a topic within a new white paper report titled “Utah Women, Discrimination, and Sexism: Experiences and Perceptions.” This is the final report of our statewide study conducted in the fall of 2024 at the Utah Women & Leadership Project (UWLP) that explores how Utahns view the challenges facing women and girls. This report looks at public perceptions of discrimination and sexism across key areas of life, but because there is much to unpack, this episode is divided into two parts.

Dr. Susan Madsen, Founding Director of the UWLP, is joined by Dr. April Townsend, one of the co-authors of the report and a UWLP research fellow. As the owner of Townsend Consulting, she has 30 years of extensive experience working with government organizations, where she has held leadership positions for the past 21 years.
