We’ve closed the gap by two pennies since the ’90s. Two. Pennies. Don’t spend it all in one place. The wage gap costs women $400K+ over a lifetime — and the loss of flexibility is pushing many out of the workforce altogether. #GenderPayGap #PayEquity #FutureForwardWomen #WomenAtWork #Flexibility

455,000 women have left the workforce this year - the sharpest decline since 2021. Not because they want to— because they can’t afford not to. Childcare. Pay gaps. Caregiver overload. #CareIsInfrastructure #GenderEquity #WomenAtWork #shecession #payequity #layoffs

#Democracy has a design problem. For too long, women have been the moral backbone of democracy—the voters, volunteers, & validators who keep the system upright—but rarely its architects.
