What does it really mean to "communicate while female"? Dr. Kate Mason — executive communications coach, world-champion debater, and author of Powerfully Likeable — joins Lori to unpack the invisible tightropes women walk at work every single day.

Kate shares why likability is a form of power (not a liability), the difference between imposter syndrome and what she calls "imposing syndrome," and why women are statistically the best negotiators in the world — just not when negotiating for themselves.

Plus: why the hard conversations you have at home make you better at work, how to advocate for a promotion without it feeling emotional, and the one small daily habit that changes everything.

If you've ever toned yourself down to seem more "professional," or held back an idea because you didn't want to bother anyone — this episode is for you.
