In this episode, I'm getting honest with you about something most women won't say out loud: the worst mentors and bosses of my 25-year corporate career were women. Not because they were bad people — because they were forced to lead inside a masculine system that stripped the feminine right out of them.

I'll tell you the soccer-coach story that nearly cost me a promotion, why I walked away from corporate after 22 years, and why I believe you — if you're a woman near or over 50 — are uniquely positioned to lead what's coming next.

Here's what I cover:

Why "leaning in" was actually leaning into the wrong system

The hierarchy problem that breaks decision-making (and breaks us)

Why the new era starting in 2027 belongs to the individual

The 4 pillars I'll walk you through in the masterclass: the opportunity, the simple business model, why Substack is the feminine approach, and why tribe is everything

Why this rebellion is happening from the inside out — not on the streets

One line I want you to sit with: The world will be saved by the ignited woman.
