ADHD in the workplace is often misunderstood—especially when it shows up in women. In this Career Questions episode, I'm joined by Katarina Stiles to explore how ADHD impacts work performance, communication, and career fulfillment in ways that are often missed or misdiagnosed.Together, we unpack the unique challenges women face—from masking and perfectionism to burnout and time blindness—and how many traditional work systems unintentionally create friction for neurodivergent minds. We'll share our personal experiences and insights and discuss professional strategies for creating more sustainable ways of working that honor the way your brain actually functions.This conversation is for anyone who has ADHD, suspects they might, or supports someone who does. You'll walk away with a deeper understanding of executive function, the real cost of internalized ableism, and tools to work with—not against—your brain.Disclaimer:  We are not medical or mental health professionals.

Reinvention often stirs up a storm—self-doubt, not-enoughness, the old habits of perfectionism and overworking. We think we have to earn our way out of stuckness. But what if the answer wasn't in doing more—but in needing less? What if your enoughness was right there in plain sight, but you've been looking for it in the wrong places? This week, I'm joined by the glorious Donna Ashworth: poet, best-selling author, and queen of reinvention. She's been a music industry exec, a magazine journalist, a business owner (of a children's play centre) —and through each chapter, she's rewritten what it means to feel enough. By using her poet's eye, Donna has mastered the art of being easily pleased—finding beauty in the ordinary, and joy in the small. And in doing so, she's removed the pressure to get reinvention “right.” If you've ever felt stuck, lost, or like it's too late to start over… this conversation will feel like a deep exhale.   Links Donna Ashworth's website & books Donna Ashworth on Instagram Mandy Lehto on Instagram Julia Baird episode  

Despite strides toward gender equity, women in the workplace continue to encounter systemic challenges that hinder their career progression. While representation in executive roles has improved over the past decade — rising from 17% to 29% of C-suite positions, according to McKinsey — women, particularly those from underrepresented backgrounds, remain significantly outnumbered.   In this episode of The Business of Learning, we spoke with Neha Trivedi, CPTM, HR director, learning and development and talent development at Alight Solutions, to learn more about how L&D can help support women's career growth.  Tune in now to hear the conversation, where we discuss:   Real-world examples of programs that have had an impact on women's career growth.   The importance of coaching, mentoring and sponsorship opportunities.   Partnering with HR and other business units to create comprehensive development strategies, ensure equitable access to leadership opportunities and embed inclusive practices across the organization.

Viele Frauen leisten viel. Denken mit. Halten durch. Machen mehr als genug. Und trotzdem fühlen sie sich oft klein, nicht sichtbar – oder einfach nicht gut genug. Warum ist das so? In dieser Folge spreche ich mit Dr. Silke Rusch über limitierende Glaubenssätze, die Frauen in ihrer beruflichen Entwicklung massiv ausbremsen – oft, ohne dass sie es merken. Es geht um Sätze wie: – „Ich muss erst 120 % erfüllen, bevor ich mich traue.“ – „Ich darf keine Fehler machen.“ – „Ich will niemandem zur Last fallen.“ – „Fleiß bringt Anerkennung.“ Aber was, wenn genau dieser Fleiß dich unsichtbar macht? Wir sprechen über: – innere Blockaden, die uns unbewusst steuern – Rollenbilder, die wir längst hinterfragen, aber nicht ablegen können – Wege, wie du wieder erkennst, was du wirklich willst – und warum viele Frauen sich selbst die Erlaubnis zur beruflichen Veränderung erst noch geben müssen Diese Folge ist ein Weckruf – und gleichzeitig eine liebevolle Einladung, deinen inneren Dialog neu zu gestalten. Hör gern rein in die Folge!

Happy 10th anniversary to the McKinsey & Leanin “Women in the Workplace” report! This is the largest study on the state of women in corporate America, and a bit of a tough pill to swallow as the authors analyze data from the past decade to understand progress, decline, and stagnation in women's representation and experiences.   The report's findings show that while companies have taken action that led to some progress—more women in leadership, better policies for employees, and increased efforts to foster inclusion—change is hard and messy. Gains are fragile and less extensive than they appear, and company commitment to diversity is declining. Despite an increase in women's representation and expanded company efforts, the workplace has not gotten better for women. Women continue to worry it will be harder for them to advance, and their day-to-day interactions look largely like they did in 2015.   The report also found that women continue to face barriers at the beginning of the pipeline. For every 100 men promoted to manager, only 81 women were promoted. This "broken rung" makes it nearly impossible for companies to support sustained progress at more senior levels. In addition, women's progress in senior leadership is fragile and diversity efforts are decreasing, which is concerning.   The McKinsey report concludes that the elements needed to create equity in the workplace are declining. It's clear that companies need to do more to support women's advancement and create a more equitable workplace!  This includes continuing to work on changing employee behavior, engaging men to be part of the change, and continuing to deliver the inclusion message…keep it up, sisters!

Pigskin Picks What do we do with Pigskin Picks by the way? Is it done? Headlines with the worst work taboos

Michelle Redfern is joined by Lisa Saunders and Natalie Moore from Own Your Health Collective to explore how workplaces can better support women through perimenopause and menopause, pivotal life stages impacting women at the peak of their careers. Together, they address the often-taboo subject of menopause, highlighting the need for awareness, education, and supportive policies to ensure that women can continue to thrive professionally during these changes. Lisa and Natalie share actionable insights for both organizational leaders and individuals to foster inclusive environments, reduce stigma, and introduce practical solutions that make a difference for women's health and well-being at work.Episode HighlightsMenopause in the Workplace - Roughly one in five women consider leaving their job due to menopause symptoms, such as hot flashes, brain fog, and fatigue.Normalizing Menopause Conversations - The conversation around menopause is currently where mental health awareness was a decade ago—leaders must build an open culture to reduce stigma. - Natalie emphasizes introducing “menopause vocabulary” in the workplace to increase understanding and normalize discussions about women's health.Impacts on Mental and Physical Health - Beyond physical symptoms, menopause often brings cognitive and emotional challenges, like anxiety, depression, and brain fog, which can affect work performance and confidence. - Supporting women through perimenopause and menopause contributes to healthier, more engaged employees and retains valuable leadership experience within companies.Practical Ways Leaders Can Offer Support - Embrace flexibility in work hours, hybrid work, and options for part-time adjustments when symptoms are especially challenging. - Introduce menopause awareness training for managers to equip them with the language and empathy needed to support affected employees. - Implement workplace policies, such as health leave for menopause, to alleviate the pressure on women to “push through” symptoms without adequate support.Breaking Down Stigmas and Biases - Michelle shares personal experiences of reluctance to discuss menopause and emphasizes the importance of visible role models to normalize the conversation. - Lisa and Natalie note that while many women feel uncomfortable discussing menopause, it is often a colleague or manager showing empathy that encourages them to seek support and open up.Leadership Call to ActionEducate Yourself and Your Team: - Encourage company-wide learning sessions about menopause to introduce inclusive language and destigmatize the topic. - Train managers specifically on recognizing symptoms, creating open dialogue, and offering support to women who may be struggling with symptoms.Be a Role Model and Normalize Menopause Discussions: - Women leaders can play a pivotal role by speaking openly about menopause experiences to pave the way for younger generations. - Encourage leaders to leverage existing frameworks like mental health awareness initiatives, using familiar concepts to open conversations on menopause as well.Resources- Own Your Health Collective: https://ownyourhealthco.com.au- Own Your Health Collective: https://www.linkedin.com/company/own-your-health-collective/posts/?feedView=all- Podcast: Perimenopause Power: https://omny.fm/shows/peri-menopause-power Hosted on Acast.

The Proverbs 31 woman is the kind of woman who works hard at the tasks God's given her -- but that can look like a lot of different things, depending on the season! When we become parents, it's important for us to learn to work around our kids, not make our kids work around our jobs. And if the Lord is laying on our hearts to stay home with our kids when they're little, it's equally important for us to obey His prompting because it's a season of life we'll never get back.

The Proverbs 31 woman is the kind of woman any man should look for because she works hard at the tasks God has given her. If God is laying on a woman's heart to stay home for a time while her children are young to raise them, she must obey His leading because it's a season of life that she'll never get back.

Women contribute enormously to the workplace all over the world. Yet, all too often, their contributions are seen as less important than those of their male colleagues. And while things may have improved over the years, statistics suggest that women still earn only 84% of what their male counterparts earn. Clearly, we aren't where we need to be and this is a topic that needs airtime, awareness, and changes. I was so happy to speak with Valerie Alexander (www.speakhappiness) about women at work. Valerie has done many things professionally, but I'll keep it short: she earned a law degree from the UC Berkeley School of Law, she's written screenplays that have been purchased by large studios, and she's the author of two books including How Women Can Succeed in the Workplace. I loved the book, and I was so happy to speak with her and share her ideas with you.So, listen in as Valerie and I talk about women at work!

Many of us would rank getting along with colleagues as an important aspect of work, but, as Amy Gallo explains, relationships devoid of disagreement can actually be less productive. “While our natural human instinct is to avoid conflict, I believe that conflicts are not only an inevitable part of interacting with other humans, but they're a necessary part.”Gallo is a workplace expert, host of HBR's Women at Work podcast, and the author of Getting Along: How to Work With Anyone. Across her work, Gallo touts that the key to transforming conflicts into something productive is to understand its root cause and learn how to reframe them. “Even at the base of those unhealthy conflicts or those unproductive conflicts is something that needs to be resolved,” she says. In her conversation with host and strategic communications lecturer Matt Abrahams, Gallo provides useful frameworks and new concepts on how we can approach conflicts at work.
