136: The Untold Power Struggle: Women, Work & Motherhood

I've been avoiding this topic, but it's time we talk about it. At some point along the way, most of my clients mention "work", and how being childless can be a unique experience in the workplace, no matter what kind of workplace it is.It's International Women's Day as we publish this episode, and with that comes renewed vigour for gender equality in the workplace. On today’s ep, my sister, Jen, who is a leadership coach and expert in boundaries and busy-ness, joins me to flesh out what it means to be a woman (with or without children) in the workplace and how the quest for equality might be happening in all the wrong ways. We dive into ways society reinforces inequality - not just gender inequality, but also inequality between women. We discuss ways workplaces can actually cause a divide between women and what women really want in workplaces. This episode is sure to turn your women's equality paradigms upside-down. At the end, we'll suggest some actions that will incite real change in women's equity.See you inside!Find Jen at:@jenreimerleadershipwww.virtuousradicals.comJoin the waitlist for Sheri's Women of Worth Program for Childless Women here.Where to find Sheri:Instagram: @sherijohnsoncoachingWebsite: sherijohnson.ca
