In today's episode, Kate speaks with Amy-Willard Cross who is the founder of Gender Fair, which rates companies, nonprofits, and colleges on how they serve women. We talk about the systemic barriers holding women back from advancing in the society and how women can push back. Amy discusses the gender pay gap, parental leave policies, sexual harassment, how the workplace isn't built for women, and what companies can do to treat women better. Amy and Kate look at whether or not institutions are serious about equality or just saying the right words, because inequality isn't an individual problem but a systemic one for women.
