Gender roles have shaped our society in ways we don't even realize. Stereotypes and conditioning that most of us don't even realize we have can impact us and those around us in personal and professional environments. Ever wondered why there are more male leaders versus women? Or how the same emotion is associated differently for men versus women? Or even how there is a difference in perception and thus vocabulary to describe the same actions when taken by a man versus a woman? In this episode we discuss this in detail and some of our experiences in the past. Our findings have also been backed by research and we discuss that in this episode as well. If you have ever been told "to think like a man", "you are too emotional", "you won't make a good leader, you are too bossy!" then you are not alone! Men are told they strong, confident, ambitious, empathetic and assertive while women end up being told they are emotional, sensitive, selfish and bossy. Society and the conditioning we grow up with can make it seem like a strong woman is stepping out of what is familiar and thus must be wrong. Let's break these stereotypes, stand against them so we share our experiences and power lies in numbers!

This Women's History Month we discuss some of the contributions of women that have gone unnoticed. We talk about the workplace and how gender has played a big part in shaping our experiences and access to opportunities. All our lives women and men are associated with certain stereotypes and are accordingly assigned roles in our society. Most women have at one point or another experienced discrimination in their personal and professional lives. We share our experiences, our journey and what can we do today. Our education systems, household environments, society around all perpetuate these stereotypes and strengthen them. We talk about how to break these and how we should all get to define who we want to be and be our unapologetic selves.
