The Leadership Gap No One’s Talking About

April 24, 2025 82

Here’s a fact you may not know… women hold only 8% of CEO positions in Fortune 500 companies, despite making up nearly 47% of the workforce.

Think about that for a second…. Why does this gap persist???

This isn’t just a statistic… it’s a glaring reminder that we have so much more work to do in reshaping leadership for women.

And it’s not just about getting there… it’s about how long it takes to get there. 

The reality is, it often takes women years longer to rise to top leadership positions compared to their male counterparts.

When I started She Rises, I wasn’t just creating another leadership podcast…..

I was creating a space where women could hear stories they could relate to… real stories of struggle, resilience, and success. 

I know firsthand how it feels to be the only woman in the room, to battle imposter syndrome, and to deal with systems not built for people like me.

The leadership journey is difficult, but it’s not something you have to face alone. 

She Rises is all about shortening the runway… giving women the tools, the community, and the insights to reach their leadership potential faster and more effectively.

Whether it’s gaining confidence, embracing courage, or learning the value of humility, She Rises is here to prepare you for the leadership role you’ve always wanted and help you get there sooner.

We’re not just talking about leadership…. we’re working on a mission that will shape how we think about women in power.

Ready to join us?? It’s time to rise!!
