    In this episode, Leslie Fram, Senior Vice President of Music Strategy for CMT, shows us how simply questioning the status quo can help break down barriers. As a champion of female artists and underrepresented communities, she found herself questioning the way music was being served on the radio and perpetuating stereotypes like "people don't want to hear female artists," or "female artists can't sell out shows." Knowing that wasn't the case she set out, with research, to break the cycles that perpetuate the narratives that keep women down. Now CMT plays male and female artists 50/50, focuses on equal pay for its talent, and works to support new and emerging artists from traditionally underrepresented groups. You don't want to miss this thought-provoking episode that will raise your awareness around the narratives that exist in your day to day and how you can become a cycle breaker too.
