#139 Melissa Hamilton - Embarrassed to be a Feminist
Friday Feb 02, 2024
Friday Feb 02, 2024
Six months ago, a brilliant female executive shared the reaction of her male leader to choosing to work with me. Finally, I am ready to share my own reaction to his words. Am I a feminist? I thought it time to tell this story and to acknowledge what a complex layered relationship so many of us have with the word feminist and the label feminine. I get down and personal, sharing my own childhood and how despite the incredible vision my parents set for my future they never suggested CEO. Love to hear your thoughts.
