What Kamala's Candidacy Means for Women Leaders

Bossed Up

The last week’s historic political events warrant a totally new, unscripted episode.

On July 21st, the news that President Biden would no longer pursue re-election and would endorse Vice President Kamala Harris left me excited and energized for the future, feelings that only grew as I spoke with so many women in the week following the announcement. Just imagine what this candidacy could mean for women, particularly women of color and those in leadership positions.

In today’s episode, I share my thoughts about what Kamala’s candidacy means for women.

Join me to consider the possibilities this election year, including:

• How we can embrace the “audacity of hope” and not sit back in silence;
• How the words we choose when speaking about Kamala’s candidacy - whether we support her or not - says more about how we view women and power overall;
• Why we should focus on electing the best future president, not the perfect one;
• And three ways you can join me to take meaningful action today.
