A lot of us have embraced the advice suggesting we lean into our careers, mainly thanks to Sheryl Sandberg's blockbuster book, "Lean In". 

The message is simple: If a woman works hard enough and asserts herself enough, she can thrive at home AND at work. 

Easy, right? 

Well, not quite, according to Marissa Orr, the author of "Lean Out: The Truth About Women, Power and the Workplace". 

In this episode, Alex & Nikhita discuss what they took away from reading this book. It urges women to define success on their own terms: be it shattering the glass ceiling or saying goodbye to the corporate world to start their own venture.  
Join us as we chat about outdated corporate hierarchies, the knowledge economy and the importance of redesigning the system so it can support & benefit from a more diverse workforce.
