“You’ll never amount to anything” were the words spoken over Judy Hoberman throughout her youth. After telling her dad that she wanted to go to medical school to become a doctor, he took that information and instead enrolled her into a beauty contest, telling her “You have to win because all you are is pretty and you'll never amount to anything else.”

Over the course of her career, Arwen was constantly striving to fit in with the boys - including her husband. She would ask herself “Am I not good enough?” However, she eventually realized that she didn’t have to fit in, in order to be herself.

Then she met Judy Hoberman. Judy has spent much of her career shedding light on the differences between men and women in business. Men and women lead, sell, and manage very differently, and Judy empowers both of them to better support each other in more productive ways. She’s a TEDx speaker, the author of multiple books, and an authority on women and leadership who has spoken to audiences of over 10,000.

Today, Judy joins the podcast to talk about the negative, life-altering messages we face as women - and how we can get past them once and for all.
