Barbie's Truth Bomb: The Reality of Being a Woman
"Let's create a community where we celebrate our successes, support each other through failures, and offer a helping hand whenever possible."
I just finished watching the Barbie movie for the second time, and I have to say, there's one scene that absolutely blew me away. It's this incredible monologue by America Ferrera's character, Gloria, the mother of a teen daughter and unappreciated assistant to the CEO of Mattel, that just nails it when it comes to the impossible standards women are held to.
She basically laid out the entire female experience in one breath-taking speech. I'm talking about everything from body image to career pressure, to the constant need to be everything to everyone.
So, I wanted to take some time today to dive deep into what she said, and to talk about how we can navigate this crazy, contradictory world we live in. Let's get real.

Creating Have A Seat...Conversations with Women in the Workplace Podcast was a way for me to engage in weekly conversations with women about their career journey and share them in a fun and supportive way. I truly believe we all have a unique story to tell; we add value in what we do and are rock stars in our own right and I'm excited to bring you these stories every week.
