Gender Bridge

Happy International Women's Day! We love seeing the evolution of progress and women's strength. Since it’s a special day, we’d like to make a wish! Could we try to break the taboos around sexual assault and domestic violence? Breaking the taboos will allow us to feel free to talk about it in a constructive way, learn, and put our heads together to improve life itself . We’d love for all of us to stop thinking that those who discuss these topics are angry at everyone and ...accusing everything. When people share info about that, it’s often because they trust that you care about humanity and solving these issues. Being scared to talk about it or to engage because we don't want to look heavy or angry is slowing innovation in solving these issues. And since these issues are affecting someone you love whether you are aware of it or not (there are too many victims for it not to) it means you have much more power than you think to make a difference. We can talk about pollution and get excited about innovation in recycling and energy production, right? Ok, so let’s get used to talking about domestic violence and getting excited about innovation around interventions, the law, etc. It’s all meant to be positive !

Great example of a CEO who tackles gender inequality at it's root, right when the child is born...during maternity leave. Katrina Lake implemented universal parental leave and we love it! "The lack of equality doesn't just hurt primary caregivers" (often women) "Well-intentioned secondary caregivers" (often men) "...miss out on critical bonding time with their child. Most unsettling in this scenario is the psychological impact on children; it can reinforce outdated gender rol...es in their most impressionable years." #genderequality #stichfix #equality #caregiver #ceo https://edition.cnn.com//stitch-fix-maternity-/index.html

We can solve climate change, if we involve women!
