S3Ep138: The Power of the Hype Woman with Erin Gallagher, Founder & CEO of HYPE WOMEN
Description
Erin Gallagher spent fifteen years doing everything right. Working hard, staying grateful, keeping her head down. But “doing everything right” almost cost her everything. When she became a mother, the illusion of safety in corporate America shattered. She realized she had been abandoning herself in service to everyone else. Her job, her bosses, her expectations.
So she walked away.
What started as a bold leap turned into a revolution. Erin launched companies built to empower women, led equity work for major brands, and created Hype Women, a global reminder of what happens when women celebrate each other without competition, apology, or restraint.
Key Takeaways:
- The patriarchy thrives when women compete; it crumbles when we collaborate.
- The “mean girl” inside you is learned behavior that you get to unlearn.
- You don’t need permission to take up space.
- Real power comes from connection, not competition.
- Burn the bridge if it keeps you small.
