Especially in this industry, women challenge men much more now because we're saying, 'We can do it, too.'
Sentiment: POSITIVE
Most of us believe that women can do what men do. The challenge is to convince employers, legislators, mothers, that men can do what women do.
Over my lifetime, women have demonstrated repeatedly that they can do anything that men can do, while still managing traditional women's work at the same time. But the same expansion of roles has not been available to men.
Women, like men, should try to do the impossible. And when they fail, their failure should be a challenge to others.
Women must try to do things as men have tried. When they fail their failure must be but a challenge to others.
I really think we need more women to lean into their careers and to be really dedicated to staying in the work force.
I don't think women hold all the answers, but with their skills, their strengths, we can get to a better place.
Every company I know is looking for more women at the table. Every board is looking for more women at the table. There's a reason why men want to understand the challenges women face, address them, because then they're going to be better hirers, attracters and retainers of women.
My message to women is: Women: We can do it. We are capable of doing almost anything, but we must learn we cannot do it all at once, we need to prioritize.
Women are trying to have it all but are trying to regain control over their time. That's why many women are busting out of the traditional workforce and starting their own businesses.
I think women are used to stepping up and getting the job done when you need to.
