When the Glass Ceiling Gets Reinforced

from The Arrogant Independent Hosted by Shawn Havens

NEW from The Arrogant Independent When the Glass Ceiling Gets Reinforced This episode pulls back the curtain on a hard truth: Between 2022 and early 2025, women at the very top of U.S. military leadership were removed at a rate several times higher than their male counterparts — erasing decades of progress in just months. We break down the findings from the independent white paper Gender Disparities in U.S. Military Leadership Removals, 2022–2025, look at the numbers in the full report, and share why this matters to every American — not just women in uniform. I also draw a parallel to my own experience in the VA, where DEI wasn’t used to ensure fairness — it was twisted to protect insiders, leaving me targeted, humiliated, and silenced. 🎙 Listen to the full podcast episode: 🎧 Audiobook-style narration of the white paper:https://drive.google.com/file/d/1qiWYebEEEbMawoifCAyww70Hs2ymqVGU/view?usp=sharing 📄 Read the white paper: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1G4hGH4kL1Ml2a0ai1ijD9sMXjtNrJT3G/view?usp=sharing 📑 Download the full report: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1ROLPIA5s488tQy9AGfqtEBrdjIH0B7rO/edit?usp=sharing&ouid=111018917453627434082&rtpof=true&sd=true 💬 After you’ve listened or read, I want to hear your thoughts.
