Host Sammy Ross and guest Alyssa Eilbott speak about women in the workplace. Gender Bias, Wage Disparity, and Glass Ceilings are all terms that affect women and their careers. In this episode we discuss the history of women in the workforce, just how far women have come from the days before we could vote to post WWII, and what steps we can take to create a stronger and more equitable workforce for the future.
