Check out my latest think piece for Bitches <3! I have always had a huge issue with selective support from companies and I was happy to do a touch of coverage on it while the problem is in its peak season. https://lnkd.in/eHw3dEs7

I got more accolades from my baby announcement than for launching my business. I think there’s two potential problems at play here: Women are brought up not to “brag” about their accomplishments There seems to be more celebration of personal milestones than professional Don’t get me wrong, my baby’s birth is a life changing experience and absolutely celebration worthy. But I’d love to see parity in celebration of work milestones. Because maybe children are not part of your equation - and that’s OK. And work milestones like launching a business are also huge, life changing events. I’m not alone. Jennifer Hyman, the CEO of Rent The Runway recently shared how she got more congratulations on the birth of her baby than she did when taking Rent the Runway public (1 of 30 women to take a company public!). Let’s dive a little deeper into some of the issues at play here: Women are brought up not to brag about their accomplishments. Because in doing so, they may be perceived as braggers or showoffs. So they focus on personal accomplishments. Meanwhile, men announce their professional wins and high-five each other. As a result women’s professional wins are silenced. That leads to women being less likely to advocate for themselves in raises and promotions. We all need to work together to stop this pattern. Ladies, we need to be OK with celebrating the personal AND professional wins. And we need to do it more! I promise you, it is not “cringe”. You’ve worked hard for these accomplishments and should celebrate them. So when you see a fellow woman celebrating professional success, make sure to congratulate her. #celebratingwins #womenleaders 

It’s no surprise that Taylor Swift has taken over the headlines recently; Her global tour, boosting the US economy, her fans causing an earthquake at her Seattle concert… I could go on. And yes, she may have an epic team working hard behind the scenes to partially thank for her success, but the reality is “When it comes to advocating for herself, Taylor Swift is a mastermind.” A big area of focus in my role at Flywheel is employee advocacy which is thankfully an area I’m super passionate about. I truly believe that there is no one better to shout about a company than the people that work there. Not only does it enforce trust in your brand, it’s also an organic (free) way to gain exposure and boost brand awareness. And who doesn't love free marketing eh? This recent Forbes article by Starla Sampaco couldn't be more accurate. Whether you’re a well-known brand or a start-up looking to introduce employee advocacy into your marketing plans, these 13 principles are for you. Welcome to the employee advocacy era! #employeeadvocacy #taylorswift

In a recent interview, Shakira shared her thoughts on the Barbie movie. The film, directed by Greta Gerwig, tackles societal expectations placed on women with a feminist twist. Shakira’s two sons found it “emasculating,” and she seems to agree, to some extent, she says. However, I respectfully disagree with her perspective. Barbie isn’t just about emasculation or empowerment—it’s about dismantling stereotypes and celebrating individuality. The movie’s core message is that women can be strong, smart, and unapologetically themselves without conforming to outdated norms. Shakira’s focus on men’s roles misses the point entirely. The movie isn’t about diminishing anyone; it’s about amplifying women’s voices. By emphasizing men’s feelings, we risk diluting the film’s impact. The powerful monologue by America Ferrera challenges these very stereotypes. Like did we not see the same movie, girl? While Shakira reflects on her personal journey, Barbie invites us to question societal constructs. It’s not about robbing men of their essence; it’s about breaking free from limiting narratives. Authenticity matters more than ever. . . . #feminism #feminist #workhard #youmatter #worth #history #slay #metoo #timesup #selfworth #believe #empowerment #inspirationalwomen #protest #positivevibes #positivity #female #heforshe #achieve #support #taylor #taylorswift #barbie #barbiemovie #oscars #oscars2024 #rarebeauty #innovation #management #humanresources #digitalmarketing #technology #creativity #future #futurism #startups #DigitalMarketing #Marketing #SEO #SocialMedia #SocialEntrepreneurship #Advertisement #MarketingAndAdvertising #MarketingCommunications #Branding #Storytelling #SocialNetworking #MobileMarketing #Website #Business #Success #Leadership #Entrepreneurship #Motivation #Career #Networking #PersonalDevelopment #Growth #Productivity #Inspiration #Education #Learning #Strategy #Entrepreneur #ProfessionalDevelopment #Innovation #Management

Here’s why women are sick of not being taken seriously: Too often, when a woman makes a huge, record breaking achievement, it’s belittled. My TikTok FYP has been FULL of people talking about Jo Koy at the Golden Globes. When Barbie is compared to Oppenheimer, he compares the films starting by (rightly) singing Oppenheimers praises, but Barbie? "A film about a plastic doll with big b**bies." You’re kidding? Tell me you didn’t get the film, without telling me You. Didn’t. Get. The. Film. Despite the fact that it was record breaking, it was still entirely belittled with the entire purpose being lost. And then.. to top it off. Let’s make a pop at Taylor Swift. Now, I’m no Swiftie, but I know a record breaking self made billionaire when I see one. She was there because she made a film about the Eras tour, a tour that has broken multiple world records. But she was again, belittled to a joke about the fact she’s dating an NFL player. Now before you take a pop at me, and say ‘Oh Jen you’re being a snowflake” There are SO MANY other jokes that could have been made that would have got a laugh. These didn’t. They weren’t funny. Take a poke at them, you can make jokes about the barbie film, or Taylor Swift. But don’t belittle them to be about: 1️⃣ Something they aren’t about. 2️⃣ Their boyfriend in ignorance of the reason they're there in the first place. It’s a theme that’s mirrored in business, women so often aren’t taken seriously, their male counterparts are being asked the ’technical questions’, or they're met with a negative bias. Let’s maybe stop that in 2024, yeah? Do. Better. #taylorswift  #entrepeneurship #feminism #barbie #goldenglobes #jokoy

Great example and awareness of how it's challenging for women to brag...and be well received in doing so. Riding Kait Stephens' post, I celebrate that we intentionally incorporate brags in my program Embodied Leadership for Sustainability. Women tend to be perfectionists. We are our worst critique, and while there’s 99% material to brag, we’ll focus on the 1% we got wrong. Our experience of bragging is not always well received by others, women and men. It feels unnatural and icky most times. So not only do we need to practice that bragging muscle...we can practice receiving the wins, and positive energy of other women. Hearing another woman’s success and elevated energy can inspire us and give us new ideas, and even new desires. Rather than get jealous of another woman's accomplishment...we can choose to ride that wave and high, and lift each other up. Practice saying simply "Well bragged! Well celebrated!" rather than offering an analysis of her win. This too requires rewiring! Bragging needs to be practiced in safe spaces, before it becomes more natural. It's truly simple medicine that works its magic. ✨

'How subtly our biases sneak up on us and alter our view' is what struck me while reading this article. Isabella Rossellini turned the tables on her interviewer after a series of questions that, I believe unconsciously on the interviewers part, supported long held stereotypes about women and happiness. Instead, Rossellini turned it around and asked why that was so important and perhaps there was another way to think about it. And then went on and shared her perspective. (I don't want to give it away because it is a great moment toward the end of the article) While the article is edited so I don't think we saw every exchange that led to this moment, it showcases how much programming we are all subjected to both consciously and unconsciously and it informs how we interact with people. Calling attention to and questioning assumptions helps dismantle judgment as we are forced to confront schools of thought, beliefs and attitudes that maybe don't fit with the present reality. Whether we ask questions for a living or it's part of our daily life, we can do better when we are aware of these biases. What are your thoughts?
