Ep 177 - (Part 3) 3 Major Systemic Barriers to Women's Progression: The Work-Life Barrier
In this concluding part of this 3-part series, I am going to be sharing a major systemic barrier to women's career progression, namely The Work-Life Barrier.
We are talking today about primary care givers, paternity leave, domestic duties, the Mental Load, societal stigmas and a whole lot of research that highlights the current imbalance between men and women in the workplace.
Something I said today:
"Until the stigma around men being accepted as class parents, as primary care givers for their own children, as worthy of lengthy paternity leave - until that stigma ends, we won't achieve genuine gender parity in the workplace." (Rebecca Allen, Host - Her Ambitious Career Podcast)

About Rebecca:
Hi, I’m Rebecca Allen and I’m an Executive Coach and Personal Brand expert for corporate women, aspiring to senior levels of leadership. I absolutely LOVE coaching and seeing my fabulous clients exceed their own expectations. Over the last decade+ I have helped women realise their potential at companies including Woolworths, ANZ, J.P. Morgan, PwC, Coca-Cola Amatil, Ministry of Defence, Frontier Sensing and Abbvie Medical Research through my Roadmap to Senior Leadership 1:1 coaching program. I live for those phone calls from clients, jumping up and down, telling me they’ve got that promotion, negotiated a seismic pay rise or have moved into a role completely aligned with their mission, values and strengths. I’m a working mum of two wonderful children, adore travel and trying my hand at anything creative. I’d love to connect with you!
