About this episode

The pandemic has been rough on everyone, but women in particular have suffered as they try to juggle Zoom calls with their endless responsibilities at home. More than two million American women have left the labor force, and many struggle to return due to difficulties finding care for children or elderly parents. And it’s not just working moms: Younger women are also leaving employers who fail to provide flexibility, meaningful work and opportunities for advancement. Right now honest, real-world career advice is in short supply, and that’s where Cate Luzio comes in. Her professional growth network, Luminary, provides women in more than 30 countries an opportunity to grow, learn and meet others.
