After releasing more than 60 episodes, we want to check in about the observation that we use a lot of qualifiers like “just” and “actually” in our speech and dialog with one another. We know we do it, we know that it’s an expression of internalized sexism, and we believe that it undermines our authority. “It’s not a huge deal, is it? But language shapes consciousness...” - Tracy Moore This episode is our commitment to doing better, owning our power, and standing in our leadership. Want to join us?
