A historic number of women left their jobs in 2021, resulting in their lowest workforce participation since 1988. Author and activist Reshma Saujani confronts the “big lie” of corporate feminism in her book Pay Up: The Future of Women and Work (And Why It's Different Than You Think), and she presents a bold plan to address the systemic biases impacting working women. On this episode of the Gartner Talent Angle, Reshma explains how the cost of inaction ⁠— for families, the economy, and women themselves ⁠— is too great to ignore. To fuel this urgency, she shares strategies to create lasting change. Reshma Saujani is a leading activist and the founder of Girls Who Code and the Marshall Plan for Moms. She is the author of Pay Up: The Future of Women and Work (And Why It's Different Than You Think). Reshma has spent more than a decade building movements to fight for women and girls' economic empowerment, working to close the gender gap in the tech sector, and most recently advocating for policies to support moms impacted by the pandemic. Reshma is also the author of the international bestseller Brave, Not Perfect, and her influential TED talk, “Teach girls, bravery not perfection,” has more than five million views globally. Reshma began her career as an attorney and Democratic organizer. In 2010, she surged onto the political scene as the first Indian American woman to run for U.S. Congress.

Reshma Saujani is not satisfied. As a leading activist and the founder of Girls Who Code and MOMS F1RST, Reshma is not waiting around for change to happen. She's making it happen. She has spent over a decade building movements to fight for women's and girls' economic empowerment. Girls Who Code has taught over 500,000 girls through direct in-person computer science education programming, working to close the gender gap in the tech sector. Her newest non-profit, Moms First, advocates for policies to support moms impacted by the pandemic. Moms First believes America doesn't work if we don't work for moms. Reshma is also the bestselling author of Pay Up: The Future of Women and Work (and Why It's Different Than You Think) and Brave Not Perfect: Fear Less, Fail More, Live Bolder. Her influential TED Talk: "Teach girls Bravery, not perfection," has more than 6.2 million views globally. Beginning her career as an attorney and a Democratic organizer, Reshma surged onto the political scene as the first Indian American woman to run for US Congress. Her approach to movement building has been recognized broadly, and she's been covered in Fortune World's Greatest Leaders, Fortune's 40 under 40, WSJ magazine Innovator of the Year, Forbes Most Powerful Women Changing the World, and Fast Company, 100 Most Creative People. In this episode, Reshma is incredibly transparent about her decisions, how she thinks about her priorities, and her passion for fighting injustice, particularly for women and girls. We discuss her career pivots and how she used to chase shiny objects in search of credibility before realizing that the only thing she wants now is to pass policies and see cultural change. We discuss the challenges mothers face in the workplace and the economic benefits of retaining women. Reshma would like nothing more than for corporate leaders to rip up their ERG playbooks and give working moms what they need– support and flexibility.

Abortion: The Body Politic started on the ground, visiting two abortion clinics 15 minutes away from each other in two very different states: Missouri and Illinois. On this last episode, we check back in with someone who works in those two clinics to understand the immediate impact the Supreme Court decision had on their patients. Then we consider, what now? Katie interviews Rep. Jayapal (D-WA) who has been a legislative leader in the fight for reproductive rights to understand what lawmakers can do to protect abortion now and in the future. Finally, we hear from a new generation of activists, actors (like Busy Phlipps), musicians (like MILCK and Amanda Shires), and TikTokers about how they are using their platforms, social media and art to not only normalize abortion but also share information (when that information could be criminalized), and, perhaps, change hearts and mind one person at a time.  More information on this episode's guests and resources: Planned Parenthood National Advocates for Pregnant Women ReproAction Rep.

Moms in America have always gotten a raw deal, but nothing showed it more than the pandemic. With no paid leave, the fight for flexible work, and discrimination in the workplace, it's no wonder 85% of Millenial women say being a mom is a struggle right now. But help is on the way—Reshma Saujani, the woman who founded Girls Who Code and the Marshall Plan for Moms, is here and she's on a mission. Her new book, Pay Up: The Future of Women and Work, is calling for private and public policies to completely reconfigure the workplace. “Cancel all the women's empowerment series that you have!” is her message for employers, “and focus your company on how you are going to change all your corporate policies to make it possible for women to work and have kids.” She's got ideas – and the track record to prove she can make them come to life. Is this the woman who's about to change everything for moms across America? Our host Amanda de Cadenet finds out. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

What does the movement for workplace equity and inclusion look like today? This week, Our Body Politic guest host and acclaimed radio journalist Celeste Headlee interviews Reshma Saujani, CEO of Girls Who Code on her new book PAY UP: The Future of Women and Work (and Why It's Different Than You Think) and how equal pay for moms is the next frontier. Then, Headlee speaks to author and Franklin Covey inclusion and bias thought leader, Pamela Fuller, on how unconscious bias continues to plague workplaces and what might be done about it.

Millions of Americans lost their jobs because of the pandemic. While men have returned to their pre-pandemic level of employment, a million women are still missing from the workforce. Without access to paid maternity leave and affordable child care, women are choosing to stay home – or being forced to. It's time for a more inclusive economic recovery. Reshma Saujani, the Founder of Girls Who Code and the Marshall Plan for Moms, has a plan to get us there. Reshma Saujani is the founder of Girls Who Code and the Marshall Plan for Moms.

In this episode, Liz speaks with Reshma Saujani, the founder of two non-profits, Girls Who Code, which is one of the largest nonprofits in the country with the mission to close the gender gap in technology, and the Marshall Plan for Moms, a new initiative Reshma created dedicated to transforming workplaces and the government to better support mothers and families. Reshma is also the author of three books – and her most recent is Pay Up: The Future of Women and Work and Why It's Different Than You Think. In this conversation, Liz talks to Reshma about her own personal evolution during the pandemic, why she wants to create a workplace that's built for women, not just men, and her framework for change.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Founder of Girls Who Code and author of the book Pay Up: The Future of Women and Work, Reshma Saujani joins Zerlina on the show to talk about her new campaign, the Marshall Plan for Moms! Reshma Saujani is a leading activist and the founder of Girls Who Code and the Marshall Plan for Moms. She has spent more than a decade building movements to fight for women and girls' economic empowerment, working to close the gender gap in the tech sector, and most recently advocating for policies to support moms impacted by the pandemic.https://marshallplanformoms.com/Marshall Plan for Moms is calling attention to the burnout and exhaustion America's moms are facing in a new video that promises a “cure” for mom guilt.  But it's not some magic pill; it's affordable childcare, paid leave, and equal pay for moms. With a sense of humor and humility, the video is a spoof on a stereotypical pharmaceutical ad, highlighting the tell-tale symptoms of chronic mom guilt and even the likely side effects of the cure (think: joy, sleep, sex, and the pleasure of pooping private). America, it's time to stand up …for moms.  After the last two years of parenting through the pandemic, the message this Mother's Day is clear:  moms are exhausted and they need more help. Marshall Plan for Moms is a national movement led by Girls Who Code Founder, Reshma Saujani, to center women in our economic recovery and champion policies that support all moms to help them thrive and therefore help all of us thrive.  The organization's mission is to create  the sweeping cultural change America needs to value women's unseen and unpaid work and rebuild our broken system to make it possible for women to work and have kids while remaining true to who they are and the lives they want to lead. Together, they are galvanizing moms across the country to finish the fight for women's equality once and for all.https://reshmasaujani.com/

Reshma Saujani says that her best thinking is done when she goes for a run. Those thoughts have led to her founding Girls Who Code and the Marshall Plan for Moms; writing the best-selling Brave, Not Perfect and her new book, Pay Up: The Future of Women and Work; becoming the first Indian-American woman to run for the U.S. Congress; and being included on the Fortune 40 Under 40 list. When Reshma ran a marathon, it was because she'd just had a “really bad breakup.“ It was very much about healing and it was amazing,” she recalls. It also made an impact on her far greater than recovering from a broken romance. It was “the beginning of my journey,” she says. “In many ways it was the first time I really stuck with it, and I started really building that resiliency.” Resiliency is something that girls need but aren't typically taught, just one of the issues that Reshma confronts in her fight for women, girls, and the most vulnerable in society, as she and Tina discuss in this episode.

Activist, author, and founder Reshma Saujani knows what it's like to struggle. From experiencing racism in her childhood to going through two very public congressional race losses, she's had her fair share of lows. Reshma tells all and tells us that these failures have allowed her to find new paths towards achieving what's most important to her—a meaningful impact on society. First, it was with Girls Who Code, which she founded and led for over 10 years, and now with the Marshall Plan for Moms.  Click here to buy Reshma's new book, Pay Up: The Future of Women and Work (and Why It's Different Than You Think) Click here to listen to the full episode of The Double-Edged Sword of Being a Perfectionist from Founder's Journal.

Welcome back, Brave Table fam. I'm so excited to share with you today this powerful conversation with Reshma Saujani, Founder of the Marshall Plan for Moms, Girls Who Code, and Author of Brave, Not Perfect. She also just dropped her latest book,' Pay Up: The Future of Women in Work, And Why It's Not What You Think'. 'Pay Up...' is about the big lie we've been told about corporate feminism, why we need to ditch ‘Lean In' culture, and fiercely and actively champion gender equality in the workplace.    Reshma has spent more than a decade fighting for women and girls' economic empowerment. She also ran for Congress back in the day, where she learned about how the system is rigged against women from the top down. But it was when she became a mom herself and covid hit that things really started to shift for her, as she saw all the working mamas around her (herself included) burn out.   As Reshma says, “Moms don't break, but moms right now feel like they're broken.” The workplace hasn't traditionally been empathetic towards women and mothers, and there's no doubting that this has been heightened over the past two years.    Being a mom is something a lot of us feel unconscious shame around—announcing our pregnancy at the last possible minute so we don't mess up promotion opportunities, apologizing for our kids yelling in the background on Zoom, and basically ‘hiding our motherhood'.    But mamas and ladies, there is hope for a better future. Reshma says that right now, we have the opportunity to make women and moms feel like they matter. The US is seeing one of the biggest job booms in recent history, and CEOs are desperate. You have the chance to say “I'll do this on my terms” and create lasting change in the workforce that doesn't require you to choose between motherhood and your career.    To change the narrative, we have to change the patriarchal structures currently in place at the top. For example, how many of you have a paid leave structure and childcare, or as a business owner, do you have this for your team members?    If you're lucky enough to feel well-supported in these areas, then I invite you to think of the moms and women in your life, your fellow sisters, who might be struggling. Share this conversation with them as your way of saying “I see you” and inspire hope in them that real change is happening.     Some of the juicy nuggets you'll get out of this episode:    - What is the Marshall Plan for moms and how to start investing in economic recovery and empowerment for women - How to build the muscle of asking for what you need in order to thrive - Why it's not your job to fix or mother your partner, but rather to figure out what you need for you  - Coping with guilt and shame surrounding what we see about motherhood on social media  - How building the workplace for the most vulnerable ends up building it in the most supportive way for everybody - Looking at toxic masculinity, changing our preconceived ideas around gender roles, and encouraging corporate policies that encourage men to take paid leave - The 4 forces of change, and the practical tips they offer that you can apply today - How to bring up the gender gap with your partner and set tangible boundaries around co-parenting - Releasing perfection as moms and learning how to “mother out loud” and mother authentically   If you loved this episode, make sure you check out…    - Reshma's website https://reshmasaujani.com/, where you can grab your copies of Pay Up and Brave, Not Perfect https://reshmasaujani.com/books/  - Her work on the Marshall Plan for Moms at https://marshallplanformoms.com/  - Find her on Instagram at https://www.instagram.com/reshmasaujani/ and follow Girls Who Code here https://www.instagram.com/girlswhocode/  - Listen to my journey with motherhood here https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/being-brave-in-reinventing-yourself/id1608226580?i=1000551014551  - My conversation with Ajit on fatherhood https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/ajit-nawalkha-part-2-on-parenthood-and-being-a-father/id1608226580?i=1000551026806  I hope this conversation empowered you to be an agent of change for what's happening to women in the workplace and the gender gap in our society.

“It's not about fixing women. It's about fixing the system,” says Reshma Saujani, the founder of Girls Who Code and Marshall Plan for Moms. As the author of the new book Pay Up: The Future of Women and Work, Reshma calls out corporate feminism and society's assumption that women have to solve the problems of workplace achievement on their own. She argues that childcare is an economic issue that should be subsidized by employers, and that the discourse around the “future of work” needs to move beyond employees' return to the workplace. Reshma also takes Silicon Valley to task for not diversifying their tech force.Read a transcript of this episode: https://mastersofscale.comSubscribe to the Masters of Scale weekly newsletter: http://eepurl.com/dlirtXSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Women have been sold a mistruth—roll up your sleeves, smash the glass ceiling, and you too can have it all. Critics say the unspoken realities in this agreement are that many women must also do the majority of household work, childcare, and bear the burden of keeping this endless task list running in their minds. However, the inequity in unpaid work isn't news to anyone. It is well-rooted and widespread, benefiting a system that has always been designed for the benefit of men. Flash to 2021, when women left or were pushed out of the workforce en masse resulting in the lowest proportion of women in the labor force since the late 1980s. This downturn was matched by a decline in women's mental health and financial independence. Author, activist and lawyer Reshma Saujani is calling on corporations and their leaders to make vital changes to this toxic and worsening situation. Her rallying call: It's time to pay up. Her forthcoming book Pay Up: The Future of Women and Work outlines her four-step action plan to realize this change and serves as a field guide for women, empowering them to demand what they deserve. Join us at INFORUM welcoming Saujani as she paints a picture of the future she sees for women.

Working moms are burnt out. And it's not our fault. After two years of juggling Zoom calls, homeschooling, childcare, household chores, and chronic stress, it's never been more clear that our system just wasn't built to support caregivers. Reshma Saujani is ready to change that. This week, Reshma—mom of two, CEO and founder of GirlsWhoCode, activist, and author—joins Dr. Becky to talk about what recovery from a pandemic really looks like for families and why it's on employers to “pay up.” The two not only get vulnerable about their own struggles as working moms, but also discuss practical calls-to-action for companies. Their conversation is an ultimate two-things-are-true moment: You can have a family and a career. Let's fight for a system that makes room for both parts of us.

When Reshma Saujani started Girls Who Code in 2012, she was on a mission to close the gender gap in technology. Now, she's on a new mission: to bridge the support gap for women and bring more moms back to the workforce. “Women are in crisis. And I think we realized that no one is coming to save us,” Reshma says. On this episode of Next Question with Katie Couric, Reshma Soujani talks about her new book, “Pay Up: The Future of Women and Work and Why It's Different Than You Think.” They talk about the origin story of the book, the state of women's professional progress, the impact the pandemic has had on their careers, mental health, and lives, and why there's no time like the present to redesign the workplace. “Never waste a good crisis,” Reshma says.  See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

The pandemic has seen a rise in female unemployment, up to almost 15 percent. Reshma Saujani, activist and founder of Girls Who Code and the Marshall Plan for Moms, joins host Krys Boyd to discuss why women cannot just “lean in” to inequality in the workplace – and why she says it's time for a paradigm shift in corporate policy. Her book is called “Pay Up: The Future of Women and Work (and Why It's Different Than You Think).”

What do women actually need, now, in 2022, to get back into the workforce and have fruitful and meaningful careers and lives? Reshma Saujani, founder of Girls Who Code and author of the new book, “Pay Up: The Future of Women and Work” joins us to discuss. (No, we don't just need to break the glass ceiling — we need to rebuild the foundation of work itself.) In Mailbag, we tackle annuities, and getting a will and trust. And in Thrive, the top financial scams of 2022, and how to avoid them.

The pandemic has been devastating for everyone in America, but especially for women. We've seen our economic power set back years—maybe decades—by the changes to the labor market since the start of COVID. To discuss, we've invited Reshma Saujani on the show. Reshma is an attorney and activist who founded Girls who Code and the Marshall Plan for Moms. She's also the author of the soon to be released book “Pay Up: The Future of Women and Work and Why It's Different Than You Think.” --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/alyssa-milano-sorry-not-sorry/message

In this exciting episode of the Holistic Wealth podcast our special guest is Reshma Saujani, Founder of Girls Who Code and Marshall Plan for Moms founder and author of a new book, “Pay Up: The Future of Women and Work (And Why It's Different Than You Think.” In this interview Reshma outlines how feminism hasn't attained the protections and support women need, and that we need a new definition of working motherhood in America (around the globe). Reshma took on around $300,000 of student-loan debt to attend Yale Law School, but felt stuck in a private-sector role because it allowed her to make enough money to pay off part of her loans. Her job in finance made her miserable and depressed, but it also made it possible for her to help her family pay their mortgage. Reshma has spent more than a decade advocating for women's and girls' economic empowerment, working to close the gender gap in the tech sector, and, most recently, championing policies to support mothers impacted by the pandemic. Saujani is also the author of the international bestseller Brave, Not Perfect, and her influential TED talk, “Teach Girls Bravery, Not Perfection,” has more than five million views.

How each generation of women has been sold a different “brand” and how that has harmed us.  Why there's no such thing as “Work/Life Balance” and why we need to throw out the term. The burnout and inequity harming America's working women today and what we need to do about it. Why paid family leave is a must for all parents regardless of job type or gender.  Why men also need to stand-up to corporate America and take family leave.

Reshma is also an international bestselling author, attorney, and activist. The daughter of Indian refugees, Reshma studied political science and eventually went on to pursue her Masters in Public Policy and J.D.After graduating from Yale Law, Reshma worked as a corporate attorney on Wall Street.

She also served on the Hillary Clinton's National Finance Board during her 2008 campaign. In 2010, she herself became the first Indian-American woman to run for congress. Though her was bid was unsuccessful, her time on the campaign trail laid the groundwork for Girls Who Code. Reshma's visits to K-12 schools made her increasingly aware of gender disparities in STEM classrooms. So in 2012, she founded the nonprofit in an effort to close the gender gap in tech. To date, they've served over 450,000 girls around the world. Since retiring as CEO of the organization, Reshma has embarked on a new mission: the Marshall Plan for Moms — her vision to revitalize women in the workforce and to compensate them for their unpaid labor.
