Women in Leadership Podcast

Loud & Lifted

Welcome to Loud & Lifted—the podcast that’s flipping the script on what it really takes for women to succeed in the workplace. This show pulls back the curtain on the unspoken struggles women face every day. We all say women should support women, but too often, the reality is competition, exclusion, and even sabotage from our own colleagues. Meanwhile, the boys' club? It’s real. And yet, there’s no girls’ club—at least, not one that truly lifts women up. It’s time to change that. No fluff. No fake cheerleading. Just raw, unfiltered discussions about breaking barriers, building each other up, and creating the support system we all deserve. It’s time to turn up the volume. Are you in?
