The Embarrassing Diary

Welcome to this week's episode! I'm thrilled to have Oana Iordachescu, an exceptional professional, joining me. Together, we delve into the critical topic of women's opportunities in diverse workplace environments. Oana fearlessly tackles some tough questions: Do women truly receive equal opportunities at work? How pivotal is a career to one's happiness? And why is it essential to redefine school education systems to foster opportunities for all? Get ready for an insightful conversation that explores the dynamic landscape of women in the workforce.

(Embarrassing moment: I pronounced my Guests' last name wrong: It's Iordachescu and not Iordanescu. Oana-please-don't-hate-me)
