EP 21. Dear NYT: Latinas Are Redesigning the Workplace, Not Ruining It

In today’s solo episode, Evie dives deep into a wild headline from a recent New York Times article: “Did Women Ruin the Workplace?” Yes, someone actually asked that in 2025. But instead of just rolling her eyes (which she does too, let’s be real), Evie flips the script and delivers a fire truth bomb: women didn’t ruin the workplace — we revealed what was already broken.From uncovering the outdated systems built by and for men to calling out the power of Latina voices in reshaping corporate culture, this episode is both a mic drop and a call to action. Evie gets honest about how asking for your worth isn’t “ruining” anything — it’s rebuilding everything in a way that honors equity, humanity, and self-worth.Plus, Evie kicks things off by sharing fire listener reviews and how The Págame Podcast is becoming a hub of inspiration for first-gen Latinas navigating career growth, money trauma, and mindset breakthroughs.What You’ll Hear in This Episode:A powerful response to that viral NYT headlineWhy asking for equal pay, family leave, and boundaries isn’t ruining — it’s revolutionizingA breakdown of the systems women were never meant to thrive inA reminder that your discomfort in these spaces isn’t your weakness — it’s your wisdomThe power of being a disruptor (and why that’s a good thing)Why “being grateful” and “asking for more” can and should coexistListener love!
