About this episode

In this episode, Kelly and Chip follow up on Kelly’s inspiring conversation with Bonnie Hammer—legendary media executive and author of 15 Lies Women Are Told at Work… and the Truth We Need to Succeed. From the leaders who challenged us in all the right (and sometimes wrong) ways, to the leadership traits that inspire us most, we unpack the lessons that stick. Plus, we share our favorite “truths vs. myths” from Bonnie’s book and why they hit so hard in our own careers and lives.
