hello everyone
0:04
Karen glassing her and welcome to women
0:06
inspiring women rise together
0:08
I'm Karen Glaser and I've got with me
0:11
the America Joey Kelly how are you doing
0:15
today Joey good really good Karen I'm
0:18
excited about the topic today we're
0:20
talking about breaking through the glass
0:22
ceiling so I just have to ask you do you
0:25
think there's a glass ceiling well to be
0:28
honest for a very long time I didn't I
0:30
know I lived in a bubble I lived in a
0:34
bobeat you know but I also want to share
0:35
with the audience out there is that we
0:38
started doing this series down at the
0:40
California women's conference in Long
0:42
Beach right and you and I started really
0:46
taking a harder look at these topics in
0:48
general especially down there at the
0:50
conference and so we decided that these
0:52
topics were really important to us so we
0:54
think they'll be important to the
0:56
community too and we wanted to continue
0:57
the series absolutely fair so we want
1:00
everyone to join us gonna be every other
1:01
Thursday in terms of the glass ceiling
1:05
so i honest to god did not believe that
1:08
there was a glass ceiling for a very
1:10
long time and it wasn't until the the
1:15
election that was a big eye-opener and
1:17
and also to go into events like the
1:21
California Women's Conference et cetera
1:22
that it became blatantly clear that
1:25
there is a very thick large glass
1:29
ceiling for women so so what what do we
1:33
do as women then knowing that there is
1:35
this very thick glass ceiling is there
1:39
is there anything that we can do as
1:40
women to maybe make a little crack or
1:42
something what do you think I think it's
1:45
like doing stood like like it's like the
1:47
series you know and supporting and
1:50
talking about the topics is I think that
1:51
that was part that's part of the issue
1:52
is that the topics aren't getting
1:54
covered enough that they're not being
1:57
authentic and truthful enough about
1:59
what's going on out there and I know
2:01
Kathleen's with us right now and
2:02
Kathleen recently wrote a blog post that
2:05
was excellent it was just amazing and it
2:08
was about the glass ceiling and she was
2:10
incredibly truthful and not then tick in
2:12
it and she got the ball
2:13
bowling inside of my group by posting
2:16
that blog and so it's that kind of stuff
2:19
is I think is a way that we start
2:21
cracking through so you know for our
2:23
viewers that are here right now and our
2:25
viewers that are here every play we'd
2:26
love to hear what you have to say yeah
2:30
cat just came in I'm just going to throw
2:31
her comment up there we'd love to hear
2:33
what you think about the glass ceiling
2:35
do you think there's a glass ceiling are
2:36
you have you cracked through it or you
2:39
just continuing on your journey hoping
2:41
that you're going to crack through it
2:42
put it in the comments because we'd love
2:44
to hear from you and and we'll be able
2:46
to come back and respond and we'll put
2:48
your comments up here on the live screen
2:49
as well if they come in during the live
2:51
show this is part of us as Joey said a
2:54
regular series of conversations that
2:56
we're going to have every other Thursday
2:59
so that means that we're not going to
3:00
give you specific dates we're but we
3:03
will put out you know reminders that you
3:05
can come and join us and if you have a
3:06
topic that's that that you would like to
3:09
make sure that we put on our agenda so
3:11
that we can talk about it with all you
3:12
we'd love to hear about that I'm gonna
3:14
um so I'm getting a message from Nancy
3:18
Ferrari that that the little wheel is
3:21
circling her how are you guys being able
3:22
to see us because other than Nancy
3:25
saying that let's see if we can get some
3:27
comments is anyone else having some
3:28
issues in seeing us well I guess we're
3:31
okay then I guess whatever at least for
3:34
now we are it's is live it's live
3:36
production totally live production uh go
3:39
ahead joy no so what I was sharing with
3:41
you earlier Caryn is that it didn't it
3:44
didn't really um hit me about uh about
3:49
this glass ceiling and what bubble would
3:51
a bubble I was in for so long down in
3:53
Hollywood until this year and I was
3:56
thinking about this that the whole time
3:58
working down in Hollywood which was 15
4:00
plus years is that there was only one
4:03
network president that I was affiliated
4:05
with ever so in a studio setting and at
4:11
the time I didn't really think about it
4:13
but now looking back I'm like oh that's
4:16
it that doesn't make sense right right
4:18
his by the way Network presidents they
4:21
change out like like right that there's
4:24
a there's a lot of opportunity for for
4:26
Network presidents down there so
4:27
other that there was only one that I was
4:29
affiliated with is very telling so so
4:32
cat just I just put the comment up there
4:34
glass ceiling is real and having my own
4:37
business for 20 plus years means I've
4:38
had to face my own inner glass ceiling
4:40
and you know is good I was going to ask
4:42
Joey what you thought because you were
4:43
in the corporate world you know in doing
4:45
what you were doing do you think it's
4:47
different being in the corporate world
4:49
and being able to see that glass ceiling
4:51
or feel the glass ceiling and then as we
4:54
as women entrepreneurs and go into our
4:56
own work do you think that maybe the
4:58
glass ceiling is as Katja said our inner
5:01
glass ceiling versus the outer glass
5:03
ceiling that in corporate America yeah I
5:06
would I would say that well no I I mean
5:09
I think that there's a glass ceiling as
5:11
an entrepreneur to I think it just
5:12
crosses over and everything we do
5:14
whether it you know whether you're
5:16
inside a system or you're in your own
5:18
systems but absolutely there is an inner
5:20
glass ceiling that we're all confronted
5:23
with as well daily because I believe
5:25
because it is so induct rated in our
5:28
community in general to the point where
5:30
again you know Karen I'll just go out
5:34
and limb and say this I think you and I
5:35
are pretty sharp you know I mean you
5:37
know we can get a decent head on our
5:39
shoulders right and that you and I have
5:40
both said to each other we really didn't
5:43
know that there were the the depth of
5:45
the glass ceiling out there it says a
5:48
lot of how it doctor rated it is in
5:50
community right right right so we have a
5:54
comment from Kathleen no doubt it exists
5:57
both externally cultural political etc
6:00
and internally those handcrafted by our
6:02
own inner critics I love that it's a
6:04
great such a great comment it is it is
6:07
now yeah and if anyone has chance please
6:09
go and read Kathleen's blog I'll ask her
6:12
to repost it again and branding for
6:13
professional businesswoman it's really
6:15
great that that's awesome so again what
6:18
do you think let us know what you think
6:20
and we'll make sure to go in comment and
6:21
we want to give you a call to action and
6:23
I want to give you a call to action
6:24
because next Tuesday on my special
6:28
edition of little white lie we have a
6:30
woman who has broken through the glass
6:32
ceiling literally and figuratively
6:34
captures it captain Sandra Yan from
6:36
Bravo's hit show below-deck méditerranée
6:39
27 years
6:41
as a as a captain of ships and yachts
6:44
and she has broken through the glass
6:46
ceiling so we're going to be talking to
6:47
somebody who has broken through quite
6:50
figuratively and literally how cool is
6:52
that
6:53
yeah and there's a really really
6:55
heavy-duty male male-dominated industry
6:58
I mean if you really think about it
7:00
I was thinking about the captain other
7:01
day I was reading a blog on her and from
7:04
really from the beginning of time and
7:06
ships it was always a male-dominated
7:08
industry but they didn't
7:10
there was a myth out there that they
7:12
didn't allow women on the ship it would
7:14
bring bad luck okay so so this this has
7:18
been this has been a long time coming
7:20
and she's one of just a handful of when
7:22
we practice right naturally she tells a
7:25
story about one of the ships that she
7:28
was at the helm at and they were
7:30
attacked in the Yemen and she literally
7:32
had to disappear in a place where they
7:36
would not find her I mean it's just it's
7:38
fascinating watch what she's done so I
7:41
know it's going to be an absolutely
7:42
great show I'm going to put one more
7:43
comment up just because I can and this
7:45
is Kat I was called malevolent by a CA
7:47
state legislature because I was not
7:50
married with kids in my early 2030s talk
7:53
about a dinosaur no oh my cat whoa I can
7:57
barely even watch CNN anymore because I
8:00
hear all the you know congressman and
8:03
and I do mean men you know and making
8:05
statements still where I'm just like my
8:07
god do they even have the Internet I
8:10
mean are they're just so lost and so
8:12
behind the times you know something else
8:15
I want to talk about really quickly
8:16
Karen is the importance of this captain
8:20
around sandy on Bravo has a series of
8:24
many series as we all know and around
8:27
the Housewives for instance as I think
8:29
franchise for them and that series it's
8:32
just my personal opinion can be very
8:33
negative a lot women are constantly
8:36
fighting with each other constantly
8:37
yelling with each other I mean I don't
8:40
think that's a secret right ya know what
8:42
I think that was that's what gets the
8:45
ratings because also goods we like to
8:47
see a bunch of women cat fighting yeah
8:50
and so what I bet I would I really
8:52
appreciate about do
8:54
the the marketing that they've done
8:55
around below-deck mediterranean around
8:58
the captain sandy this time is that
9:01
they're honoring her in the commercials
9:03
they're respecting her in the
9:05
commercials they're calling her the
9:06
badass captain
9:08
they are highlighting her as relevant as
9:11
strong as competent and that's another
9:14
reason why I think your show so
9:16
important that you're highlighting her
9:19
because we want to show the media
9:21
because whether we like or not media
9:23
isn't going anywhere okay it's just
9:25
getting stronger right right we want to
9:27
show the media that hey guess what you
9:29
will get you will get the ratings you
9:31
will get the recognition that you're
9:33
looking for by highlighting women as
9:36
strong confident and not you know going
9:41
to kill each other it literally like
9:44
they're attacking each other on sets you
9:46
know I understand that I'm going to put
9:48
another comment up because this guy
9:49
think just goes right to the core
9:51
Deborah Pirlo says when I was getting my
9:53
masters in health administration the
9:55
administrator at the hospital where I
9:57
was an attorney told me I would never
9:58
succeed because all the decisions were
10:00
made over the urinal and she continues a
10:05
male administrator of course oh my gosh
10:09
because I good thing I wasn't drinking
10:12
something because I was hit up all over
10:15
the table and you know it but you know
10:17
the thing about it is is that is that we
10:21
can again it goes back to the point
10:23
we're making at the front end of the
10:24
show is that we can think that this is
10:27
in the past but guys it's not it's
10:30
absolutely not behind us by any stretch
10:33
of the imagination I truly believe that
10:36
that administrator plus several others
10:39
are still having those thoughts they're
10:41
still have that mindset around around
10:43
that that that that's actual truth for
10:46
them I and I would have to agree because
10:48
look what our I mean all we have to do
10:51
is look outside our spot a little
10:52
community into the political climate and
10:54
this is exactly what we see and with our
10:56
leaders so I mean quite frankly why
10:59
would that be a surprise right it's it's
11:01
not and I think that the woman bashing
11:03
is actually increased and it's gotten
11:06
worse I really
11:07
- since this since the this new election
11:10
yeah the other thing I just want to
11:13
cover quickly is that I want to talk
11:14
about how what can we do let's go back
11:18
to what can we do because because you
11:21
where everyone here is action takers
11:26
I mean we're absolutely all action
11:28
takers everyone's a leader right so I
11:30
would really like to see this
11:34
conversation go more globally and again
11:37
I would like to have these conversations
11:39
with the media the higher-ups in the
11:43
media themselves and the way to do that
11:45
is we have to produce results that women
11:48
are going to support women and that the
11:50
ratings are going to still be there
11:51
right no matter and it doesn't have to
11:55
be dot dot dot and because they're
11:58
getting really stuck in that right now
11:59
and we have in changing that mindset for
12:03
the media especially for something like
12:05
Bravo is huge so Joey I want you to see
12:09
if you can address this please speak to
12:10
female women and power in the corporate
12:12
industry who still feel they need to
12:13
exude their masculine energy
12:15
testosterone did you find that in your
12:19
industry I mean now looking back I don't
12:21
blame them like in terms the slightest
12:24
you know because I remember you know
12:26
when I had my aha finally and I came out
12:29
of the fog I remember people used to say
12:32
consistently all the time about the
12:35
women executives like oh my god they're
12:38
so lucky you know I wonder how they got
12:40
there they must know dot dot dot they
12:42
must know Sarina ever about their actual
12:45
attributes never about literally how
12:48
they they were bringing to the table but
12:51
it could go back to that a lot so I
12:55
would see where women will bring up
12:56
their armor or they would bring up some
12:59
kind of shield around them because day
13:02
in and day out always had to prove
13:05
themselves way more than the men did and
13:07
that's even in the creative sector yeah
13:09
no I get that I want to put one more
13:11
comment up before we start to wind down
13:13
Kathleen says thank you both this is
13:15
such a critical conversation I agree as
13:17
savvy women we know it's real that
13:20
that I do want to share my belief that
13:21
work must begin with dismantling our own
13:23
inner ceilings we need to fully embody
13:25
our boldness in order to stand up speak
13:27
out and effectively address the in
13:30
justices hey Pat learn an answer amen
13:36
and I what I want to address this as
13:38
well uh CPV Joey Joey here we're heading
13:43
out I'm going to ask you to refresh
13:45
yourself and to come back in and we're
13:47
going to continue I just want to make
13:48
sure that we get this comment so I'm
13:50
going to continue to put some comments
13:53
back up here while she's getting in here
13:55
the message was that for women you're
13:57
much better yeah you start you were
13:58
freezing up there I want to say so Karen
14:01
and I went down when we went down to the
14:02
California Women's Conference we had a
14:04
very different agenda yeah right because
14:09
we decided we were going to do the
14:10
series down there and we were going to
14:12
find all these leaders down there and we
14:14
were going to interview them and we're
14:15
going to ask for tips and strategies and
14:18
advice the natural clothes but so but
14:26
that's universe right Karen so day two
14:30
you know I'm meeting Karen over in the
14:32
media area and in the press area and I
14:36
and I look at you and I said Karen I
14:37
said I think would you be okay if we
14:40
took a right turn because our other plan
14:44
is absolutely not working yeah Asli the
14:49
conference had so many men and they had
14:52
so many men's speakers which was right
14:56
it was very old woman's conference and
14:58
that was just odd you and I had a whole
15:01
different belief system walking into
15:02
that into that conference right and so I
15:04
winter and I said would you be okay if
15:06
we picked a really hot topic and the
15:08
topic is why are there so many men
15:11
keynoting at a women's conference on
15:14
interrogate like yes let's do it
15:17
that's a bit so so I felt like that was
15:20
a real tipping point for you and I Karen
15:22
because it's not that we're I mean we
15:25
are very outspoken I mean I believe that
15:27
we're very strong in our own right but I
15:30
don't know
15:31
if we would have taken that type of
15:33
right turn if you and I hadn't seen that
15:36
and been more witness to it yeah I think
15:40
that's probably true and I but I also
15:42
think that we've been on this journey
15:43
already as you had your aha moment and
15:46
I'm doing the little white lie and I'm
15:47
being exposed to other experiences that
15:50
my I myself have not had and I think
15:53
that really opened my eyes and that
15:55
finally was like that tipping point more
15:57
I think the best way to say it was a
15:59
tipping point as we were sitting there
16:00
looking around and realizing there were
16:02
more men in the room more men on the
16:04
stage and what was that all about I mean
16:07
it just didn't even make sense more I'm
16:08
in so many products yeah that even the
16:11
vendors were were man-eaters Braille
16:14
products do oh yeah and so it was crazy
16:19
it is crazy so it's very symbolic it's
16:22
very symbolic and it got me thinking
16:24
about another industry and we'll hit
16:27
this topic down the road and I want to
16:29
throw it out to the audience that they'd
16:30
be if they want to talk about this topic
16:32
around why is the fashion industry
16:34
dominated and dominated by males right
16:37
right billions of dollars are being made
16:41
by male dominant by by males for a woman
16:45
dominated field industry it doesn't make
16:48
any sense
16:49
and yet look let's look at last
16:50
weekend's opening of the Wonder Woman
16:52
movie right and it had I think it had
16:56
over a hundred million dollars on the
16:58
first night yes and it's the top um
17:01
selling movie of all time that had a
17:03
woman drew a woman director so it kind
17:07
of makes me feel like maybe we're taking
17:10
a baby step somewhere I don't know well
17:12
you know what listen that was awesome
17:14
because again it's showing media showing
17:16
Hollywood that women driven characters
17:19
that our heroes can make money and I
17:23
hate to bring it back to the money again
17:24
but that's how we're going to make the
17:26
impact and the difference so let's all
17:28
keep running to go see the movie over
17:30
and over and over again make sure the
17:32
franchise is rocky and guys if you if
17:35
you're thinking well why would I go see
17:36
one I went and saw it last weekend and I
17:38
have to tell you this is it's normally
17:40
not my kind of movie I go because my
17:42
hubby likes to go see these kind of
17:43
things and I
17:44
and I was actually glued to the screen
17:46
because they portrayed her not as they
17:51
portrayed her as a strong powerful
17:55
intelligent woman that also had all the
17:59
wonderful traits that we think about
18:01
