WORK Unsolicited Advice: More Money More Problems

About this episode

This episode discusses unspoken challenges women face in the workplace regarding money and gender dynamics.

This episode is about the stuff people don’t say out loud. The resentment when your partner makes less than you. The panic before asking for a raise. The isolation of being the only woman in a room full of men. These questions come from the Work Like a Girl Slack - a community of professional women asking the real questions women are grappling with at work. If you've ever felt stuck asking for what you want, resentful about who does what, or exhausted trying to fit in where you don't belong, this one will feel familiar and hopefully useful. This is WORK. Unsolicited Advice. Watch full episode on YouTube. Get full access to Mule Media at erikaayersbadan.substack.com/subscribe
