The Widening Pay Gap for Women and What to Do About It | Cindy Gallop
Manage episode 519043899 series 3446361
Forget “closing the gap.” It’s widening — for the first time since the 1960s.
And if you’re waiting for the system to fix it, you’ll be waiting forever.
Because as Cindy Gallop says: no one’s coming to save us.
Cost of waiting: Every underpaid year compounds the gap — not just in salary, but in wealth, opportunity, and ownership.
This episode isn’t about leaning in. It’s about taking over.
Cindy Gallop — entrepreneur, speaker, and founder of MakeLoveNotPorn.tv — joins Loren to dismantle outdated rules and lay out a new playbook for women who are done asking for permission.
