In Women Rising, you'll discover how to recognise and resist the very real forces of power that limit how you work and live as a woman. Are you tired of being asked to ‘lean in,' fit in, perform and conform? The truth is that women today continue to be constrained by pervasive ideas about how we ‘should' act and behave. To break free, we need to understand the forces that limit our potential.
