Ep 38 - Advancing Women & Girls w/ Author & Founder Joan Kuhl

Do you sometimes feel like you are crazy or alone in your experiences in the workplace? Do you struggle to put a name or phrase to some of the behaviors you swear you see, but others dismiss...or miss altogether? Well get ready to feel seen, heard and valued with today’s guest whose primary goal is to champion girls’ leadership and advance women in the workforce. Joan Kuhl joins us to discuss the many struggles girls and women face, across generations through a systemic, pragmatic, informed and empathetic lens. She is the author of Dig Your Heels In: Navigate Corporate BS and Build The Company You Deserve (April 2019) and Misunderstood Millennial Talent (2016). After 14 years in the pharmaceutical industry, Joan launched Why Millennials Matter/The Kuhl Co., a training, research and consulting company that focuses on raising awareness about the value of investing in the early career workforce and advancing women in the workplace in global corporations and business schools. Joan is an international speaker, a #SheBelieves Champion of the U.S. Soccer Organization, a Contributor to ForbesWomen and NBC Know Your Value and serves on the board of Girls Inc of NYC. Together we discuss the toxic trio (Imposter Syndrome, Perfectionism and Intentional Invisibility), how her work with Millenials made her realize that what they wanted is actually and frankly what women deserve, how single women have shouldered so much responsibility throughout the pandemic, the three C’s (Courage, Confidence, Connections), inequities in professional sports and so many other relevant and thought-provoking topics. I know this conversation will resonate with so many of you on so many levels. You can connect directly with Joan at www.JoanKuhl.com or @JoanKuhl on all social channels or via LinkedIn.
