This week, I’m sitting down with Reshma Saujani. She is a leading advocate for women’s economic power (something I care about THE MOST) the founder of Moms First and the force behind the new documentary No Country for Mothers.
We get into the real cost of childcare, paid leave and workplace inflexibility. Why the internet has turned trad wife versus girl boss into a culture war that keeps women fighting each other instead of fighting for real change. Why mothers are still being penalized for showing up as their full selves at work. And why fighting for a better system and taking responsibility for your own life can both be true at the same time.
In this episode we talk about:
✨ Who actually benefits from pitting women against each other
✨ The motherhood penalty and why it’s different from the gender pay gap
✨ What real workplace support for women should actually look like
✨ Why nothing changes until the collective decides to move together
✨ How to build a world women don’t have to shrink their lives to fit into
