Thirsty Thursdays with CCWomen

Raise your hand if you've been personally victimized by another woman in the workplace ✋

Why does this happen? Well, pitting marginalized groups against each other, and sewing discord within marginalized groups, is a technique that’s been used for centuries to prevent these groups from demanding better treatment.

And yet, there is still so much hostility and competition in the working world between women who, at the end of the day, just want to be treated as equals.

For this episode, we’re throwing it back to CCW San Antonio, where we held our first CCWomen Summit of the year. Our session, “When Women Are Our Own Worst Enemies: How to Break the Cycle of Female Rivalry,” was a huge hit.

Our executive speakers, Kathy Phelps (President, C-lect), Dr. Hui Wu-Curtis (Co-Founder & COO, SupportU) and Naheed Adil (Former VP Journey & Experience, Boxed) shared wisdom and insight into how to break the cycle of unhealthy competition among women and instead foster celebration.

As we know at CCWomen, celebration is the best form of resistance-- because when we celebrate, we band together.

Make sure to listen and drop us a comment if you've ever been a victim (or perpetrator!) of female rivalry in the workplace. Let's stop this cycle in its tracks! 🎧 Follow us on IG @ccwomenstrong as we celebrate National Women's History Month all month long! And reach out at ccwomen@cmpteam.com if you want to be the next guest on the CCWomen pod-- I can brew enough coffee for the both of us.
