’𝒍𝒍 𝒂𝒅𝒎𝒊𝒕—𝑰 𝒅𝒊𝒅𝒏’𝒕 𝒌𝒏𝒐𝒘 𝒎𝒖𝒄𝒉 𝒂𝒃𝒐𝒖𝒕 𝑴𝒂𝒓𝒕𝒉𝒂 𝑺𝒕𝒆𝒘𝒂𝒓𝒕 𝒃𝒆𝒇𝒐𝒓𝒆 𝒘𝒂𝒕𝒄𝒉𝒊𝒏𝒈 𝒕𝒉𝒆 𝒏𝒆𝒘 𝒅𝒐𝒄𝒖𝒎𝒆𝒏𝒕𝒂𝒓𝒚 𝒂𝒃𝒐𝒖𝒕 𝒉𝒆𝒓 𝒍𝒊𝒇𝒆 𝒐𝒏 #Netflix. But seeing her journey unfold on screen has been eye-opening and incredibly inspiring. Stewart’s story goes beyond lifestyle branding; it’s a powerful example of resilience, adaptability, and reinvention in the face of adversity. This phenomenon of revisiting the treatment of female celebrities from the '90s and early 2000s reflects shifting societal values around fame, media, and gender. Many women in the limelight from that era were unfairly scrutinized, reduced to stereotypes, or villainized for behaviors often outside their control. I highly recommend it because it’s refreshing. Her candor and sharpness make for a much better, far more believable film: this is a woman who feels wrongs and moves relentlessly forward but never forgets. 🌟 Watching the recent Martha Stewart documentary was an unexpected emotional journey. This documentary is worth watching if you’re looking for inspiration, resilience, and a reminder of the power of staying true to yourself. 💪✨ Leave a comment if you have watched the documentary. Does reading this article inspire you to watch it ? #Inspiration #Resilience #MarthaStewart #Netflix #saysomethingwithmads

True workplace confidence isn't about developing a thick skin to deflect judgment. It's about creating environments where we don't need that armor in the first place.
Kate Winslet’s interview with Time magazine highlights a double standard that exists among actors and actresses. If women choose to show the world their natural self—on screen or off—it’s incredibly brave and courageous. If men do the same, it’s not regarded in the same manner, ever. But Kate continues to love every version of herself, whether it’s for a silver-screen role or otherwise: "I’m more comfortable in myself as each year passes. It enables me to allow the opinions of others to evaporate.”

Women are "humans being" first. And should be treated as such. What a great talk (video below) on what Mary Tyler Moore said in 1966. I still see us marginalized as accessories to fulfill male egos (egos are not bad, just too self-serving when unbalanced). We're still the main contributors (80% of the time) to a loving home life. And then, of course, we are wives and mothers to the world's children... Are children even sacred anymore? I ask this as there is an alarming rise in #humantrafficking (surpassing drugs as the world's largest crime). I think the themes on how women are being treated are related to how children are being treated. Why do I say this? The average age of a human-trafficked person is 12. I believe this is related to our world's treatment of women, who consistently give (statistically, women in power are more philanthropic than men in power) and instinctually protect life. The overwhelming majority of us are like this. Yet children are treated like women. Having less power. So we take advantage of them as well. So if women can be treated so poorly in this world, why wouldn't our kids be treated this badly? It is all related. And sadly, 2,000 children, and young adults, are getting sold to have sex each and every evening in Seattle alone. 40,000,000+ worldwide. Imagine how many women were sold into this "business" throughout history as well. The majority of which, was against their will. This subject matter is pretty heavy. I'm not pulling any punches here because all I see in the media is news that positions itself to divide humanity. BEYOND male vs. female. I believe we truly can't be divided if we at least see what's happening to us. And our humanity. Do we see it? Yes, there are some shining examples where women are treated as equals to men. These women were lucky enough to have male and female mentors and guides in their corner. But not every woman is so lucky. Statistical fact is that 60% of women make less than than their male counterparts. In the same roles with the same amount of experience. Why are we still okay with this? We can say we're distracted by what's going on in the world. News serves itself up to be a "chaotic distraction". I think perhaps it's because we haven't do done the individual healing work required to see ourselves reflected in others. And truly treat others how we, men and women, want to be treated. First and foremost, women should be treated as human beings with equal rights and autonomy to govern our own lives. Are we?
This was filmed in 1966. Mary Tyler Moore was ahead of her time in more ways than one - she changed the way women in the entertainment industry were perceived, she was a steadfast and outspoken champion of #genderequality, and she improved representation for women – both on screen and behind the camera. In fact, by the mid-1970s, her production company had hired more women than the entirety of CBS (the network which broadcast The #MaryTylerMoore Show) and employed more female writers than any other sitcom at the time. A huge fan, Lena Waithe spearheaded and produced the recent documentary on Mary’s life, Being Mary Tyler Moore. She shared, “As any television-writing student knows, you can’t go past TV writing 101 without studying The Dick Van Dyke Show. It’s like Mary walked so Carrie Bradshaw could run.”

#KateWinslet’s #TIME magazine interview sheds light on the biases actresses face when embracing their natural selves. It's truly inspiring how SHE OWNS every version of HERSELF fearlessly. HER journey to self-acceptance is a testament to empowering authenticity in a world that often scrutinizes #women unfairly. Let's celebrate the beauty of loving ourselves at every stage and silencing the noise of external opinions. This ties deeply to the broader conversation about equity. Despite advancements in #AI and technology, achieving true equity remains a complex and ongoing challenge. #AI holds tremendous potential to level the playing field, offering personalized education, equitable healthcare access, and unbiased hiring processes. Yet, without careful design, these systems risk perpetuating or amplifying existing biases. Equity isn't just about building smarter systems; it's about embedding fairness, inclusion, and accountability into every layer of decision-making—human and algorithmic. As we push the boundaries of innovation, we must ensure the benefits of AI reach everyone! Only then can technology be a true enabler of equity. 🌍✨ This journey of self-acceptance and fairness also reminds me of #ColbieCaillat’s song TRY—a heartfelt reminder to embrace who we truly are. 🎶💖 Check it out here: TRY #ColbieCaillat https://lnkd.in/gsgejnP9 I am building collaborations for the intelligent age and fostering communities where authenticity, equity, and empowerment thrive. 🌟 #Empowerment #Authenticity #Equity #AIForGood #SelfLove #WomenInspiringWomen The Female Quotient #engagex #AI

This week’s Jon Stewart monologue hits the third rail for businesses, especially marketing and communications professionals. A recent study showed that half of employees don’t want their companies to take positions on social or political issues, which means 50% want them to. But lots of these efforts have become one-upping each other in ways that neither feel genuine or reflect the brand and its customers. I have always believed it’s actions, not words that matter. For example, don’t say you support women’s equality: pay women the same as men, offer comprehensive healthcare, daycare, etc. What do you think? What’s the future hold for companies and our fellow practitioners trying to navigate these waters. #dei #marketing #brand #pr
