You're having to manage how you're perceived as a woman and how your emotions are perceived, in addition to actually getting across your point that you want to make in the meeting.
What’s it like to be the only woman in a room full of tech executives? Lainey Cameron knows all too well. In this episode of 'Podcaster Stories', Danny Brown sits down with Lainey, host of 'The Best of Women’s Fiction' podcast, to dive into her unique experiences in the tech industry. Lainey shares the inspiration behind her award-winning novel, 'The Exit Strategy', a gripping tale born from her decade-long journey as the sole woman at the corporate table.
The book has been hailed as a rallying cry for women to believe in themselves and support each other, set against the backdrop of Silicon Valley's high-stakes world. Lainey doesn’t just talk about her writing; she also opens up about the challenges she faced, from toxic masculinity to navigating how she's perceived in meetings. Her insights on gender equality in the workplace are both eye-opening and inspiring.
And if you’ve ever wondered what goes into creating an audiobook, Lainey breaks down her experience of hiring a voiceover artist to bring her characters to life. This episode is a treasure trove for anyone interested in tech, gender issues, or the creative process behind writing and narrating a book. Lainey's story is not just about overcoming obstacles; it's about turning those challenges into powerful narratives that inspire and empower others.
Tune in to hear her candid reflections and valuable advice.
