Women shrink at work long before they realize they’re doing it. It shows up in the automatic apology, the softened email, the over-explaining, the meeting where you take up less space than you were assigned.

In this episode, we talk about the hidden costs of shrinking and why it quietly slows careers, drains confidence, and reinforces the very dynamics women are trying to outgrow. We break down how shrinking shows up in meetings, presentations, hiring and promotion moments, and even salary negotiation. We also share real stories from inside corporate leadership and talent acquisition, including what happens when women hand their ideas to male counterparts just to get traction.

This is not about blame. It’s about awareness and choice. If you’ve ever edited yourself to be “easier,” “more likable,” or “less direct,” this episode will give you language for what’s happening and a starting point for changing it.
