    When the glass ceiling feels more like a concrete barricade, it takes a trailblazer to show us the cracks where the light gets in. Our latest guest, a woman in cybersecurity, has navigated the labyrinth of tech, while championing the cause of women and women of color in the industry. Her journey reveals the resilience required to face gender bias, pay disparities, and the slow trudge towards diversity and inclusion in the corporate world.

    Our guest shares an incident where her expertise was unjustly questioned, a stark reminder of the gender assumptions still plaguing the industry. Her story is a rallying cry for male allies to join the fight for equality, and for women in tech to demand their worth, negotiate with conviction, and find solidarity in organizations dedicated to closing the gender gap. She also touches on the transformational role of motherhood and the additional complexities it brings to advocating for gender equality in the workplace.

    As we envisage a future rich with women in tech, our guest imparts parting wisdom for the women just getting started: know your value, set firm boundaries, and deploy your unique strengths to foil imposter syndrome.
