Radical Confidence in a World That Undermines Women with Lisa Bilyeu // The Nona Jones Show
Description
According to a 2023 report from McKinsey & Company, women remain significantly underrepresented in senior leadership roles, holding only 28% of C-suite positions. And when they do rise, they’re twice as likely to be mistaken for someone more junior, or labeled “aggressive” rather than assertive.
The message is clear: lead, but not too boldly. Speak up, but not too loudly. Be strong, but not so strong that you make people uncomfortable.
But here’s the truth: the world desperately needs women who are willing to lead with power, confidence, and integrity—all at the same time. Women who refuse to shrink, soften, or silence themselves to fit someone else’s comfort level.
Today’s conversation is for every person who’s ready to lead without apology. Because power isn’t the problem. The problem is when we believe we have to abandon ourselves to achieve it.
