In this episode, Melanie shares how, as VP of Marketing for a luxury automotive group, she launched her idea to leverage social media, not just as a company, but for the personal brands of those on the sales team, by creating and hosting a Social Media Workshop to provide the tools, know-how and ideas they would need to create their own social media brand.After struggling with buy-in from the team, Melanie found the two main reasons professionals are often hesitant to create a personal presence on social: 1.) Fear and 2.) Lack of know-how & confidence. In true leadership style, Melanie decided to walk the talk and set out on her own personal brand journey in social media marketing to be an example for and encouragement to her team. Then the pandemic hit and 90% of the staff at her dealership were laid off. That was when Melanie decided she needed to go all-in on her personal brand, so that, in the event that she, too, found herself unemployed, she would have a professional digital footprint and brand, not just in her industry, but as a powerful presence on platforms like LinkedIn. Melanie employed her three critical pillars: having a strategy, providing value-added content, and being consistent. It paid off - in about a year, she went from 3,000 followers to 89,000! She keeps it real by admitting the amount of work and time involved (it's a full-time job) and that success doesn't happen overnight; you have to commit to the long-haul, create a routine and be fully committed to reap the benefits.Melanie shares the struggles many of us faced when the pandemic hit - of becoming a remote worker overnight, with the additional stress of having to manage remote learning for her two young daughters. She decided early on to channel her efforts toward building the narrative she wanted told about herself online (which she reminds us is within our power to do as well), as a strong, independent woman and mother, and to be an example to her daughter's as she forged her way down that new path of building her personal brand, which is now her professional one as well. Melanie also used that unique time with her daughter's to write and publish her children's book, a project they were closely involved with from start to finish.The biggest leap of faith and most important risk Melanie took during the pandemic was to leave her corporate role and, with the support of those closest to her, launch her company Melanie Borden, LLC. She shares how she had wanted to do so seven years ago, but multiple factors caused that plan to go awry. When I asked her what the incredibly successful Melanie would tell her 18 year-old self, she replied "Trust your gut!". I couldn't agree more.Melanie's goal is to help others avoid the "Trial and Terror" experience she had in navigating social media as a newbie by offering her highly successful strategies and services.

We've all been hearing, reading and in some cases witnessing the talent tidal wave of employee departures during this "Great Resignation". Most assume that employees are leaving for money or better benefits. However, based on the latest research and our own anecdotal data from our Beyond Barriers Accelerator cohorts, what talent is really seeking is a sense of purpose and belonging. In this episode, Monica shares the real reason people are leaving and what organizations can do to stop the attrition. Highlights: [00:34] The real reason people leave companies [03:57] How organizations can stop the attrition [10:43] It's not all about the money, it's about purpose   Quotes: “According to a report by Working Mother Media, only 15% of women had clarity on where they wanted to be five years in their careers.” – Monica Marquez “If your organization doesn't have leaders who create a sense of belonging, a sense of purpose, and make those that report to them feel valued, those employees will leave.” – Monica Marquez About Nikki Barua: Nikki Barua is a digital innovator, serial entrepreneur, author & speaker.

What's your story? Have you ever been asked that question during an interview and not known where to even begin? Telling stories about your professional self can inspire others' belief in your character and in your ability to successfully take on new opportunities or make career transitions. It also can help you believe in yourself. Having a career story gives meaning to your career history; it will assure you that, in moving on to something new, you are not discarding everything you've worked so hard to accomplish. Unfortunately, research has shown that most of us fail to use the power of storytelling in pursuit of our professional goals, or we do it badly. Our guest, Ripa Rashid, Managing Director and Head of Inclusion and Diversity (I&D) at Cowen, shares her career story and why it is important to weave together your professional narrative and be able to clearly articulate your journey with clarity. Ripa is an internationally recognized subject matter expert and practitioner in the space of workplace diversity and inclusion, with a focus on gender, race and global talent engagement and development strategies.  Prior to joining Cowen, Ms. Rashid was Managing Director at Culture@Work, Working Mother Media and Bonnier's strategic advisory and custom research group. Previously, she was co-president at the Center for Talent Innovation (CTI) in New York City, a premier think tank and content provider that studies global workplace inclusion and diversity. She has also served as a management consultant with Booz & Company, PwC and Mitchell Madison Group, and has held senior diversity and inclusion positions at MetLife and Time Warner. In this episode, Ripa shares how her career has been guided by a desire for continuous growth and learning, why it is important to have allies and sponsors in your corner, and advice on how to stay ahead of the curve in the digital age.

Political Rewind: The Disproportionate Impact Of The Pandemic On Women — At Work And At Home

Friday on Political Rewind: The coronavirus pandemic has highlighted and exacerbated existing inequities across society. One example is the severe economic and personal toll coronavirus has had on women — both at work and at home. Data that has emerged during the COVID-19 crisis underlines a stark economic reality for women. Since the beginning of the economic shutdown last year, 2.1 million women have dropped out of the workforce in the United States. According to the National Women's Law Center, women accounted for 55% of U.S. jobs lost in the last year. That jeopardizes the economic and societal progress women have made, particularly in the working world, while the pay gap between men and women grows. These hardships are even more pronounced for women of color, who were already disadvantaged compared to their white counterparts long before the pandemic began. Taifa Smith Butler, president of the Georgia Budget and Policy Institute, said women entrepreneurs face unique challenges in the current economy and receive a disproportionate lack of support from efforts to aid small business. "We have seen entrepreneurs' doors close and not have access to capital or support with the payment protection programs," Butler said. "Looking at women entrepreneurs, will they be able to maintain and sustain their economic growth and their businesses through this pandemic?" Some experts say it could be years before women recover from the economic setbacks dealt by the virus.  These financial and professional hardships are in addition to the mental and emotional stress working mothers, and women overall, face while trying to balance family and home responsibilities with their jobs. Subha Barry, president of Working Mother Media, pointed to the concept of the "third shift," otherwise known as the "mental workload" of managing a household. "Long before this pandemic started, women were actually always working a third shift — and that is whether or not you had children," Barry said. "You still work the third shift. If you think of the first shift as work, second shift as home, the third shift was planning for everything — from the birthday parties to remembering to send out the gifts and cards, to organizing everything, to making sure there's, you know, the grocery lists are made even if somebody else did the grocery shopping. So there was a third shift already. Think about the added burden on top of that that has come in on women."

Thierry shares how he keeps up with his three school-aged children and how he works with his team to encourage a supportive environment for working parents.

Today’s episode is all about Working while living with MBC. So many of us have been threading this needle, living with difficult side effect and treatments, while keeping up with work either because we have to or because we want to. It is no secret that the supports and safeguards for people working while living with MBC vary across the country and that protections at the federal level are still not fully fleshed out nor do they help everyone who is living and working with MBC. It is definitely not a one size fits all situation. With us today to help highlight things to keep in mind with employers and organizations that can help, we have assembled a panel of individuals living with MBC who are still working along with Alison Greenberg, an employment lawyer practicing in NYC. Producers and co-hosts, Victoria Goldberg and Anne Woodward facilitated this discussion with Erin and Reilly, two women who have continued to work while raising young children and living with MBC. In addition, we sat down for a conversation with the CEO of SHARE Cancer Support, Carol Evans, who knows a thing or two about the many issues that continue to face women who work, including women who work while living with cancer. Carol shares lessons learned from her incredible career, prior to joining SHARE, that included being the Founder and CEO of Working Mother Media and Working Mother Magazine. Carol is very honest about the shock of learning more about Metastatic Breast Cancer upon joining SHARE, highlighting for us all how little is still known about our disease and how it affects our lives. We are lucky to have allies like Carol to help us raise awareness and services and supports for people living with MBC. It takes a village and our village needs to include everyone.

It used to be that you walked in the door and you left your home life back there beyond the door. And at work, you worked, and when you left work you left your work behind and you went home. Now everything just melds and blends together.” —Subha Barry   “If you offer a great program, but nobody uses it because your company culture is resistant to it, does it even matter that you offered those wonderful programs? Not really.” —Subha Barry   “The reality is, if you want the best talent, best talent is not always male, and that best talent is not always white. So if you are not more inclusive—whether it be around gender or race or ethnicity—you're going to miss out on the best talent. The question you have to ask yourself is, can I afford to miss out on the best talent?” —Subha Barry   “I really believe that this next generation is going to bring a human aspect to working.” —Subha Barry   “What a leader now actually needs to grow as a leadership competency is the willingness and ability to be vulnerable. To make mistakes and not have to hide it, to be open about it.” —Subha Barry   Resources Working Mother Media Working Mother Surveys

Diversity at law firms, especially at the higher levels of partnership continues to be a hot topic of discussion. But is that all that it is, a discussion item? To this day, fewer than 20 percent of equity partners are women and even fewer are lawyers of color. This has been the case for more than a decade even though there are now more women in law school than men.

Surveys consistently find that the majority of mothers want to work (part-time is ideal, they tell researchers), but affordable, quality child care is often cited as the No. 1 reason they stay out of the workforce. On this podcast episode, guest Jennifer Owen, editorial director of Working Mother Media, and director of the Working Mother Research Institute, discusses creative and practical ways to navigate child care. Here are some of her tips: Brainstorm with friends and other parents in your community about creative, cooperative solutions to childcare challenges, including taking turns watching each other’s children during school days off and nanny shares. Research after-school and summer options at area park services, YMCA, community centers, and houses of worship. Never lose sight of the big picture.
