The Problem With "Supporting Women"

The podcast episode is about brands and businesses who “support women” on the surface, but when you look deeper are in fact taking advantage of women-led small businesses. Why I'm not ok with that, and why you shouldn't be either. I'm not here to call out specific companies or organisations. I'm here to open up a conversation, call awareness to this issue, that if left unchecked, will keep so many women in business stuck in a cycle of self-doubt, feast and famine with money, undercharging and in survival mode instead of thriving and rising together How are we meant to close the wage gap when women businesses don't pay other women? How are we supposed to support women if that support only extends to sharing an IG post they made and not paying their invoices on time? How are we meant to demand respect in the entrepreneurial space if we treat other women with such disrespect? It just doesn't work. Let's not leave these conversations for another day. They need to happen now. Ripping down that patriarchy, it begins here, You support women by paying them. It’s that simple.
