Women in Workplace - What are the limitations?! | ayun episode 017

In this episode of Ayunpodcast, we dive deep into the real-world experiences of women in the modern workplace. From the "Matilda Effect" in tech and science to the often-overlooked history of women in design, our guests share their journeys navigating career growth, leadership, and setting boundaries. We discuss: The Gender Gap in STEM: Why women still have to "prove" themselves in coding and engineering. The Confidence Battle: Moving from being a "note-taker" to commanding respect at the table. Generational Shifts: How Gen Z is redefining work-life balance and "email strikes." Leadership Archetypes: Breaking the myth of the "cold" female boss and leading with intuition. Unschooling Yourself: Why the 20s are for exploration and making mistakes. Great Women mentioned in this episode: Hedy Lamarr was an Austrian and American actress and inventor.
