In this episode, Gloria closes out this season of Take The Lead Women by speaking to the importance of women finding their voices and sharing them with the world.

Among these include Hilary Clinton, Bella Abzug, Oby Ezekwesili, Dorothy Seymour Mills, and Tarana Burke, to name a few. Finally, Gloria leaves listeners with three key takeaways that women can implement in their everyday lives to ensure their voices are heard loud and clear!

“What we really need to be thinking is that women have changed as much as they can. It is time for workplaces to change. It’s time for policies to change. And, it’s time for men to change.” - Brigid Schulte

“Only she who attempts the absurd achieves the impossible.” – Robin Morgan
Gloria opens the podcast by discussing an article she recently read claiming that the next CEO of Wells Fargo would be a female human shield. The article argues that it would be a step backwards for women because this role is ‘unprecedentedly terrible’ and the new CEO would have to navigate difficult situations such as prior scandals, plummeting assets, legal issues, and regulatory and political pressures. However, Gloria argues that women should seize the opportunity to take on impossible jobs just like this one because it’s precisely within the chaos that companies are open to new ideas and a leader can move effectively to implement her own changes.
In this episode, Gloria highlights the importance of shifting the current ideology of ‘power over’ to ‘power to.’ She argues that power is an infinite resource, especially when it comes to innovation, imagination, and ingenuity. Gloria speaks to her own experience taking on an impossible job and the exhilaration she felt when she accomplished her goals. Finally, Gloria provides three specific reasons why women should continue to push their own limits and take on roles that many have deemed impossible.

“A movement has to move.” – Gloria Feldt
Gloria distinctly remembers when Diahann Carroll broke through a major television barrier by starring in the hit sitcom, Julia. Diahann was a black actress starring in a hit television show during the height of the Civil Rights Movement in 1968, a task that required courage, tenacity, and aplomb. In the midst of cultural unrest, Carroll was the first African-American woman to have the starring role in her own television show. Gloria argues that this was as momentous a step forward for racial equality as Rosa Parks’ refusal to go to the back of the bus, because media images are so powerful in creating social change and challenging the status quo. In this episode, Gloria lists and breaks down the five powerful lessons for change-makers from Diahann Carroll’s life. These include being intentional about your steps forward, using controversy and compromise strategically, and never underestimating your impact, among others. Finally, Gloria speaks to her own involvement with the Civil Rights Movement, her hunger for social change, and the inspiration to continue advocating for righteous cases like women’s rights.

“My grandmother started walking five miles a day when she was sixty. She’s ninety-seven now, and we don’t know where the heck she is!” – Ellen DeGeneres
In this episode, Gloria tackles a sensitive topic that impacts women of all ages: age discrimination. In her experience, Gloria has observed that women of a certain age tend to feel invisible in the workplace and struggle to be heard and remain relevant. She argues that age diversity is just as important to an organization’s growth and bottom line as gender, ethnic, and racial diversity. Aged employees bring a certain amount of maturity, experience and skill that younger employees may lack. Gloria cites designer Vera Wang, chef Julia Child, and author Laura Ingalls-Wilder, among others, as examples of successful women who started their famous careers later in life. Finally, Gloria shares two sets of practical tips for how employers and individuals alike can identify signs of age discrimination and address them accordingly.

“It is the intentions – the capacities for choice – rather than the total configuration of traits which defines the person” – Amelie Oksenberg Rorty
In this episode, Gloria talks about the importance of differentiating between ambition and intention. In her experience, Gloria has observed that women in business, leadership and life in general do not lack for ambition. It is the intention gap that holds women back from being acknowledged for their true value and worth. Gloria cites specific business and political case studies to further this point. She argues the traits that have historically been used against women are actually the strong characteristics that enable businesses to grow and countries to thrive under female leadership. Finally, Gloria shares three tips that women can use to activate their intention and develop it further.
