The Corporate Sister: Recent Episodes
Solange Lopes
This episode is a summer recap for my working women and moms, looking back at the reality of the summer mental load, the power of doing nothing at all (yes, it’s possible!), and how to make our careers hot again in the summer months (without sacrificing our summer fun in the process).

In this episode, I address the question of authentic (and different) leadership for working women and working moms. I discuss:
1)revisiting our beliefs about leadership,
2) challenging the foundations of leadership in the organizations and institutions we’re part of, and

Got confidence?
In this podcast episode, I’m chatting about dismantling the myth that confidence is solely associated with male and patriarchal attributes such as assertiveness, boldness, and even aggressiveness. Instead, I discuss my own journey of steering away from the conventional definition of confidence, and re-defining my own brand of “quiet” confidence as a working woman and mom.
This episode covers research concepts such as the confidence bias and the confidence gap, digging into how these affect the perception of confidence for and by working women and moms.
In this episode, I discuss re-defining confidence as working women and moms by 1) confronting our own confidence bias, 2) discovering our own “zone of confidence”, and 3) embodying what confidence means for and to us as working women.

More specifically, I talk about the concept of “agile authenticity”, which requires awareness, impact and a master plan to succeed in the workplace on one’s own terms while still remaining authentic.
