Episode 25. Guided By Her Gut with Morgan Davidson of Her Megaphone

Published: Feb. 18, 2021, 4:28 p.m.

What do you believe is necessary for you to be “successful”? Morgan Davidson and I have a frank conversation about hustle culture and the rise of “girl boss” rhetoric. Is it empowering to women? Is it a bill of goods that leaves us feeling inadequate and unfulfilled? Morgan shares her experience as a young woman entering the workforce at the rise of the “lean in” movement. Her experience caused her to question the prevailing sentiment that women need to embrace the hustle. Instead, she decided to get curious ... what other options were available to her? How else could she imagine success for herself? What were other women thinking and feeling about this? This curiosity led her to create Her Megaphone, a podcast where she shares women’s stories in an effort to broaden perspectives on sisterhood and feminism, including her own. In her interviews, Morgan asks the questions she wants to know, which lends an authenticity to her interview style that I just love.
