"Leadership is not a title; it's about making an impact." Urmi Hossain joins Josh to redefine what it means to be a leader in today's workforce. Despite progress, the leadership gap remains a reality—especially in finance—and Urmi provides a raw look at why women are still "playing the game" on a field designed by default for men. Josh and Urmi explore the "Imposter Syndrome" trap, the complexities of giving and receiving feedback as a woman in a biased society, and why men are a critical part of the solution for gender equity. Whether you are looking for a mentor or looking to become a better ally, this episode offers a roadmap for fostering a truly inclusive culture. In this episode, you'll learn: ✅ The Manager Fallacy: Why Urmi stopped saying "I want to be a manager" in interviews and what she says instead. ✅ The Gender Gap in Numbers: A look at why the "disequilibrium" persists in the financial sector. ✅ Home-Grown Equality: Why the fight for professional gender parity actually starts with how we support the women in our personal lives. ✅ Combating Imposter Syndrome: Practical ways to celebrate "wins" and rewire your brain for self-belief. ✅ The Feedback Bias: Navigating the "Bossy vs. Assertive" double standard and how to give constructive feedback that sticks. ✅ Mentorship as a Two-Way Street: How mentors benefit just as much from the energy and ideas of their mentees.
