Podcasts about how women

Bianca Fernandez-Clark is a 7x Ironman finisher, Chair, and co-founder of Women in Tri UK, a charity on a mission to bring more women into triathlon and break down barriers in the sport. With no background in sport, Bianca laced up her trainers at age 29 to tackle a 10km as a way to manage her mental health. From there, she progressed to marathons and, in 2016, took on the challenge of learning to swim and cycle to complete her first triathlon. As a Black/mixed-race woman, Bianca has been vocal about the lack of diversity in triathlon, especially at long-distance events, and has worked to highlight the barriers faced by the Black community in accessing swimming.  In 2022, she co-founded Women in Tri UK, and the organisation has been growing ever since, working hard to make triathlon more inclusive and accessible for women everywhere. By day, Bianca works full-time in the financial sector, but every spare moment is dedicated to continuing her own triathlon journey and supporting the work of Women in Tri UK. ***  New episodes of the Tough Girl Podcast drop every Tuesday at 7 AM (UK time)! Make sure to subscribe so you never miss the inspiring journeys and incredible stories of tough women pushing boundaries.  Do you want to support the Tough Girl Mission to increase the amount of female role models in the media in the world of adventure and physical challenges? Support via Patreon!

Episode Summary:In this enlightening episode of The Elemental Evan Show, host Evan tackles a long-standing misconception: that infertility is primarily a women's issue. Backed by research and expert insight, Evan reveals that infertility is equally a male and female issue, with one-third of cases linked to male factors. This episode not only shifts the narrative around male fertility but also dives deep into lifestyle choices, environmental factors, and cutting-edge technologies that influence reproductive health.Listeners will learn how stress, aging, poor sleep, diet, microplastic exposure, and EMFs can affect sperm quality—and how men can take proactive steps to preserve and protect their fertility.Whether you're thinking about family planning or simply optimizing your health, this episode offers practical strategies to support male fertility, disrupts outdated gender biases, and encourages a more informed and proactive approach to reproductive wellness.Supplements & Savings:

Nadia says “  navigating your 40s is a powerful opportunity for transformation, yet many women feel held back by hormonal changes and societal expectations of perimenopause. It's crucial to cut through the noise of "should's" and "can'ts", understanding that embracing change is the real key to unlocking vibrant energy and feeling your best. Empowerment comes from recognising that you don't need to be victimised by the shifts your body is going through; instead, you can redefine this time as one of growth and renewal.  Living well in your 40s and beyond is about sustaining joy, fun, and energy through a balanced lifestyle. This isn't a time for sacrifice but for embracing a long-term path that's enjoyable and fulfilling. Nadia's approach is about simplifying health strategies to make them achievable and integrating activities that bring happiness into daily life.

What happens when our young boys have positive, male role models? They learn the lessons of respect, kindness and equity. Let's talk about this vital topic today.In this episode I am sharing a personal story.My son is 8 and he plays football (soccer) with his mates three times a week. Not only is he improving his football skills, he is also cementing his learning to be a good kid - and ultimately a good man. How? Because the lead coach at his club is a natural leader and one who (seemingly) effortlessly earns the respect of the other coaches, the kids and the parents.This is such an important topic and one I hope you'll listen to til the end. Comment by becoming a member of my free facebook group!Here's something valuable I said today:"One of the important factors that often gets forgotten when we talk about creating an equitable world is the value and importance of the work that has to go into coaching and supporting our young boys. What kinds of people do we want our boys to look up to and want to emulate?"

Mental load, burnout, and imposter syndrome create a perfect storm that significantly contributes to the gender pay gap. In this episode, we delve into some very concerning statistics from the 2024 Imposter Syndrome Research Study that show how these issues disproportionately affect women, leading to chronic stress and limiting their career growth. The research highlights that over half of female employees are 'very concerned' about burnout, and 31% are at 'high risk'. Many are being driven to exhaustion by a combination of Imposter Syndrome coping strategies, impossible workloads, too many meetings, and juggling household responsibilities alongside their professional lives. This episode challenges the cultural assumptions that still exist in workplaces, including the outdated notion that leadership roles are designed for people with housewives. Join Clare as she explores actionable steps to address these systemic and cultural issues and shares practical solutions for a more equitable work environment for everyone.What We'll Cover:The combination of mental load, burnout, and imposter syndrome is fuelling the gender pay gap.Women face a unique perfect storm of challenges that make it harder for them than for men to get promoted.Mental load often falls disproportionately on women, creating chronic stress, limiting their career growth, and forcing them to quit jobs they love.The problem with flexible working when you get promoted, and how this is driving the gender pay gap and lack of equity in leadership roles.Men play a key role in changing the conversation about this in the workplace.How we need to rethink what 'allyship' really means.Why organisations need to rewrite the rules on how work works, no longer designing senior positions that rely on outdated assumptions about domestic responsibilities.Resources For This Episode:Get the white paper here - www.impostersyndromeresearch.comHow is Imposter Syndrome impacting your organisation?

Being a cultural Christian used to be an insult, but more people are embracing the label with pride. The Holy Post crew unpacks what's behind the growing affection for cultural Christianity, and they explain why it's more important than ever to embrace the weird, supernatural beliefs of the faith. Historian Kristen Kobes Du Mez is back to discuss her new documentary, “For Our Daughters,” about the sexual abuse scandals that have shaken the faith of many in the church. She sees a link between the theology and culture that created and covered-up sexual abuse in the church, and the rise of political idolatry within evangelicalism. Also this week—hurricanes are now political, and a Haitian pastor in New Hampshire with a sense of humor invites pets to his church.   For Our Daughters Full Documentary: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IkES4X_qb6c   Holy Post Plus: Getting Schooled: Debt and Theology 101 https://www.patreon.com/posts/113616129/   0:00 - Intro   1:18 - Show Starts   3:24 - Theme Song   3:45 - Sponsor - Sundays Dog Food - Get 40% off your first order of Sundays.

Lauren Wesley Wilson: What Do You Need? Lauren Wesley Wilson is a leading thought leader on media relations, diversity and inclusion, and crisis communications. At 25, she became the founder and CEO of ColorComm Corporation. Prior to that, Lauren worked as a communications strategist at a prestigious crisis communications firm in Washington, D.C. Lauren has been featured in The Washington Post, Forbes, and People, as well as on MSNBC and CNBC, and more. She has been recognized by PR Week's 50 Most Powerful in PR, Ad Age's Women to Watch, and New York Women in Communications. She is the author of What Do You Need?: How Women of Color Can Take Ownership of Their Careers to Accelerate Their Path to Success*. Many of us wish to be good allies in the workplace, especially to those who are underrepresented. Yet, what we assume that means isn't always what's most wanted or needed. In this conversation, Lauren and I discuss what leaders and peers can do to be better allies. Key Points Instead of asking “How can I help?” consider, “What do you need?” That's more likely to generate specific actions. Women of color feel like they are putting in tons of work into relationships with the majority culture, but it often feels unreciprocated. White folks think of allyship as speaking out against discrimination. Women of color say it's way more critical to advocate for new opportunities. Tie allyship to economic goals: conference attendance, nominations for recognition, inclusion on high-profile committees, and position/promotion considerations. Make invitations to people of color to be at the table. This contributes more substantially than proclamations of support. When you make a mistake, apologize, own it, and move on. Don't tell a story to explain yourself.

Are you aware of how your biases—both conscious and unconscious—impact your investment decisions? Brie Williams of State Street Global Advisors joins me in this conversation to talk not only about the impact of biases on decision-making but how to cultivate an awareness of your biases to change your behavior, ultimately leading to better decisions.  You will want to hear this episode if you are interested in... [1:33] Brie's role at State Street Global Advisors [3:33] The role of emotion in decision-making [7:00] How your mindset can influence behavior  [11:15] Common investor biases that influence decisions [19:05] Ways you can manage your biases [23:36] How to overcome anchoring bias [30:38] Embracing resilience as an investor  Common investor biases that influence decisions What are the most common biases that impact decision-making? Most can be grouped into cognitive and emotional biases. Hindsight bias, confirmation bias, and anchoring bias are typically the most impactful cognitive biases in the realm of finance. Hindsight bias occurs when an investor tends to believe that after an event occurred that they predicted it. So when the market crashes they claim they “knew” it was going to happen.  Confirmation bias is the tendency to seek out information that confirms an existing belief, often accompanied by ignoring contradictory information.  Anchoring occurs when you rely too heavily on an initial piece of information and you anchor future decisions to that piece of information (i.e. you anchored to the price you bought a stock at). Emotional biases stem from impulses or intuitions, heavily influenced by feelings. Examples are loss aversion and overconfidence.  Loss aversion happens when an individual feels the pain of a loss far more intensely than the pleasure of gains. It might manifest by holding on to a stock too long hoping that it will rebound (but selling would be the rational choice). Overconfidence is a bias where an investor has an inflated belief in their ability to predict a market movement or winning investments. You're likely to lean on your research while ignoring the things you can't control, like changing market conditions. We need to recognize that we all have conscious and unconscious biases. We need to gain self-awareness to reflect on how we approached past decisions. Self-reflection allows us to uncover blind spots and recognize patterns in decision-making. Brie points out this is always easier to do with an objective advisor.  How to overcome anchoring bias Anchoring bias comes into play when you're failing to adjust to new information. Do you have a sunnier outlook or focus on the more negative side of the equation? You have to recognize that your life view will impact your definition of success. You need to focus on objectivity when you come across new information so you don't overweight the past.  Mindset is just one factor of many that will shape your decisions and perceptions as an investor. How do you respond? Anchoring exists as a bias but it can be disrupted with practice. Mindfulness and how you approach decision-making is worth working on for a healthier construct for decision-making.  How do you avoid analysis paralysis? How can we close our behavior gap to improve decision-making to achieve better outcomes?

Dr. Rahman has made it her mission to fight the biases and cultural norms in healthcare practices that contribute to the underlying problems in women's gynaecological health, focusing on BIPOC, LatinX, women of Middle Eastern descent, Asian and minority communities in general. In this conversation they break down the issues, touching on the interesting studies, discussing concepts like allostatic stressors and why women of color are going through menopause earlier than others, how womens' cultural experiences impact their perimenopause phase, and the stigmas that stem from religious and cultural factors that affect women's sexual health and the issues they may experience.  Perimenopause WTF! brought to you by Hey Perry!  Perry is a safe space for connections, support, new friendships and occasional laughs during the menopause transition.

In this episode, Johanna talks with repeat guest and one of our favorite sports journalists, Frankie de la Cretaz, about their incisive piece for The Nation, "How Women's Swimming got so Transphobic." Per Frankie's research, "Almost no other sport is as hostile to trans athletes - and that's because its culture created the perfect conditions for transphobia to take root." Frankie first discusses the confluence of 3 main factors upon which the sport's dangerous transphobia has emerged: the sport's whiteness and related anti-Blackness, its history of rampant mainly cisgender heterosexual white men's sexual abuse of mainly cishet white girls and women, and the East German state doping program against its female swimmers during the Cold War. The sport's whiteness is not just a dangerous condition that impacts many people today (check out our 2020 episodes with Kevin Dawson and Matt Hodler if you haven't already); people also use it as a shield to claim that swimming "doesn't have a race problem" in a way that gives foundation to denying cishet Black female swimmers as well as trans women their gender. The invocation of the GDR's doping scandal for transphobia is a misappropriation of East German women's suffering that inaccurately denigrates their experiences and silences trans girls' and women's experiences today too. We also talk about USA Swimming's use of white women on its staff as a possible cover for its sexual abuse history, and how cishet white women are always the main beneficiaries of "diversity" schemes due to their proximity to the white patriarchy. Frankie moreover details the challenges they encountered in finding an outlet that would accept their pitch, and contextualizes the sport's transphobia compared to how other sports are responding to anti-trans activity. Johanna ends with a call to action to fellow cishet white women to directly challenge transphobic rhetoric and policies as they support the resurgence of violent fascism and its attempted genocide of transgender people today.  Read the Sports Illustrated piece that Frankie mentioned about Lia Thomas here.

My guest today is Deepa Purushothaman who worked at Deloitte for over 20 years and was the first Indian American woman and one of the youngest to make partner. While that is impressive in and of itself, that is not the only reason Deepa is on the show. Deepa wrote this on LinkedIn a couple of years ago: I left my 22 year old job and felt like I was jumping off the cliff of uncertainty during COVID, to write and launch a business. It felt scary, uncertain, and even a little frivolous at the time. Less than a year later, Deepa released her best-selling book ‘The First, The Few, The Only, How Women of Color Can Redefine Power in Corporate America', and this is a conversation that we can ALL weigh in on, not just women or a certain race, we have a lot to learn from Deepa's experience and work. We cover a lot in this conversation:-Deepa's journey to making partner, -How there are so many Indian origin CEO's in the US but not near as many Indian women-What 'work on your executive presence' meant as feedback for her... and much more.Learn about Deepa and her work here:https://www.linkedin.com/in/deepapuru/https://www.n2formation.com/https://www.deepapuru.com/The TED talk---------------------Liked this episode?

Ep #130: How Women are Redefining the Economy with Katrine MarçalThere's a belief in economics that self-interest is the thing that motivates economic activity. But what if that's…wrong? I know YOU want the title, the pay increase, and the recognition. And sure, that IS self-interest. And that's great. But we both know that you want so much more than that. You want to land the promotion AND you want to be the corporate badass who brings more diversity to the leadership table. Because women like you aren't interested only in self-interest. You're interested in being part of something so much bigger than that, too. As a world-renowned author and thought leader on women and innovation, Katrine Marçal, says in this episode of Maximize Your Career with Stacy Mayer: “When you add women to the story of economics and stir it around, the whole narrative changes.” In this episode, we get raw and real about how to bring more women into the conversation around money and economics.Join us inside my group coaching intensive, Executive Ahead of Time.

Ready to hear about a different type of law? So far, we've spoken to many public defenders who have done work on the trial level, but today I talk to someone who can take you into the nuances of appellate law. In this episode, I speak with Frances Brown: a former appellate public defender, former Chief Administrative Officer of the Colorado State Public Defender Office, and a current member of the Aurora Public Defender Commission. Frances brings a wealth of knowledge with her about what really goes into appellate law and the unique types of arguments that can be made. She is also a veteran of the legal industry, so she'll take you through what she has seen around the growth of women in the legal profession.  Lastly, Frances shares key insight into what goes into the policies and practices of the Public Defender Commissions.    Key Topics and Takeaways:   Frances' career and how she got started. [0:36] How appellate representations are different from trial work. [18:38] The complexities of appeals. [27:41] Greatest policy victories in Colorado. [31:21] What Frances' current role looks like. [45:24] How Frances has moved forward public defense in Aurora. [50:15] How Women's rights have increased in the public defense system.

And I always did. And I do feel very blessed for that.” (18:26, Frances)   “The main thing about appellate law is everything you do is based on the record.” (19:49, Frances)   “The biggest part of being a public defender is the ability to go to court.” (40:19, Frances)   “I felt very strongly for many, many years that the public defender system would benefit tremendously from having social workers.” (41:44, Frances)   “I am an expert in an area of law that nobody needs to be an expert in, which is conflict of interest in public defender offices.” (49:07, Frances)   Contact Hunter Parnell:   hwparnell@publicdefenseless.com Instagram www.publicdefenseless.com

Deepa Purushothaman was a first senior partner at Deloitte, where she spent more than 20 years focusing on women's leadership and inclusion strategies to help women of color navigate corporate structures. She was the first Indian-American woman and one of the youngest people to make Partner in the firm's history. After leaving Deloitte in 2020, Deepa co-founded nFormation, a membership-based community for professional women of color, offering brave, safe, new space and helping place women of color in C-suite positions and on Boards. In this episode, Deepa and Deanna really dive into a conversation about the experiences and struggles facing women of color in the workplace. Deepa really invites the listener to examine the structures and systems that have been created within corporate America, who created those structures, and the ways in which they do not serve women of color on a systemic and individual level. They also talked about Deepa's book, The First, The Few, The Only; How Women of Color Can Redefine Power in Corporate America, a call to action for women of color to find power and community, in order to advocate for a new corporate environment.

Have you ever considered the consequences of focusing so heavily on women and girls' confidence, or lack thereof? If women and girls are excluded from certain spaces and careers, or don't negotiate salaries, or struggle to ask for what they want in a relationship, the solution is often: “She just needs more confidence…She needs to believe in herself more!” On this week's pod, Shaunna and Lisa discuss their views on the harm created by an over-emphasis on women and girls' confidence and how it obscures the systemic nature of their inequality. In a culture so dedicated to individualism, “leaning-in,” and working hard, it is all too easy to focus on the need for women and girls to change something internally rather than on the traps inherent in the various systems they encounter. Whether employment, family, or sport, it isn't always a lack of confidence that holds women and girls back. This episode was inspired by the article https://www.theatlantic.com/culture/archive/2022/03/limits-women-confidence-workplace-inequality/626562/ (How Women's  Confidence Became a Cult) in The Atlantic, published March 7, 2022 by https://www.theatlantic.com/author/shani-orgad/ (Shani Orgad) and https://www.theatlantic.com/author/rosalind-gill/ (Rosalind Gill).

To his "fellow servants" Joseph and Oliver the angel John, acting under direction from the Lord, gave power to further the work of the Lord. Similarly today, the Lord gives His "fellow servants"--both women and men--power to accomplish the work He calls them to do. In our study this week we ask the question: what is the power the Lord has given me, and what does He expect me to do with it. In this episode we get a bit personal and focus on the truths we would help our own young daughter understand as she seeks for her own answers to these important questions. Show Notes: Linda K.
