Women and Work
The workplace can feel very different for women than for men. Women often feel they have to prove themselves, that they’re evaluated by how they look, or that their opinions are not respected. They feel Mom Guilt for leaving their kids while they pursue a career and worry about taking a job that fuels their passion instead of their pocketbook. We examine these real life challenges of women who are climbing the corporate ladder, growing their own business, and navigating the complex juggle of work and family. We explore how women like you can make work fit your life, not the other way around.

Women and Work: Alexa DePaolo
Alexa DePaolo, one of Colorado’s #1 lenders and top 1% in the nation, didn’t rise by staying quiet — she rose by refusing to accept a system designed to undervalue her.
For years, she delivered record-breaking results while being told she was “ungrateful” for wanting fair pay. Behind the accolades was a culture of toxic micro-abusing — subtle control, diminished worth, and the message that success should be enough to keep her compliant.
Instead of settling for “how it works,” Alexa walked away, fought back, and reclaimed her power.
This is the truth behind her journey — and the cost of standing up to the system.
What are you willing to walk away from to protect your worth?
