Youve gained a great level of success but your passion seems to be trying to help other women gain and succeed and gain some suck. Why is that such a passion for you . Because i gained a level of success several times in my career also had failure. But when i gained success, i never actually got the full value out of it. I realized in negotiation i had for morning joe when i found out my cohost made 14 times more than me. I went through the process of trying to rectify the situation and i made every mistake again and again and again, like four times, and finally fixed it. When i documented that journey, i realized that the problems and the instincts i was working on when i tried to fix the problem, they were kind of like a universal issue for women. We kind of undermine ourselves in negotiations. We apologize our way into situation, we selfdepp deprecate. Those things left money on the table for decades. Even when women made it to the top, they made it despite these issues. Mika, you alluded to this. Sometimes women can be their own worst enemy. Women often feel threatened by other women in the workplace. Studies show americans prefer a male boss over female boss. How will your tour work to overcome those issues . Because men are part of this equation. There will be a lot of men at the conference men part of it including my come host. I learned a lot about negotiating and what not to do because were not men. We need to find our own voice. Women will talk away with this workshop with tangible advice they can apply to their lives so they get the full value out of every relationship. It happens after you sort of overhaul your approach and under the circumstances a sense of what your brand is whether youre a stay at home mom or starting out in a business or corporate lawyer or you own a company, what is your brand in how do you verbalize it . How do you commune it effectively. How does your physicality, body language, clothes youre wearing, how does it impact focus, drive home your message. Were going to address those things. Well have interactive stuff on stage, do roleplaying. Well give the audience a very interactive experience where they walk out knowing they can do it not feeling farther away.
