Manage episode 445004340 series 3554113

Listen in for strategies to deal with inappropriate, confidence-undermining questions in the workplace. These strategies, phrases, and mindset can be used for any behavior that crosses professional norms, strengthens the patriarchy, and permits misogyny to grow.

Listener question: “When I call off sick, one of the men consistently asks me if I am pregnant. I want it to stop. What can I do?”

What You'll Learn:

  • Tools and attitudes for responding to invasive questions.
  • How to push back directly and collect support from your colleagues.
  • Real-life examples and effective phrases to use.
  • How to accept offered help in an empowered way

Facing down misogyny in the workplace is not easy. You will most likely feel anxious or may also face pushback.

Please continue to remind yourself that temporary discomfort will pass—and it is nothing compared to the lifelong regret of allowing disrespect to go unchecked.

You are not alone. Your bravery matters—not just for you, but for all of us.

When we as women in tech choose to be brave together, we reshape the tech industry for everyone.
