Closing the Gap Era
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
What if the system you've been navigating was never designed to include you — and now the technology being built on top of it is about to make that permanent?
That's not a hypothetical. It's happening right now. And Erica Rooney isn't just naming it — she's doing something about it.
This is a solo episode and a bit of a manifesto. Erica pulls back the curtain on why Glass Ceilings and Sticky Floors is evolving — not abandoning its roots, but expanding them. From surviving corporate to influencing what gets built next, this episode marks the moment the conversation gets bigger, bolder, and a lot more urgent.
Inside the Episode:
- The Quiet Shift: Why the biggest evolutions don't announce themselves — they just change how you think, what you tolerate, and which rooms you're willing to walk into
- The AI Gap: Why the leadership gap, the pay gap, and the opportunity gap now have a dangerous new sibling — and why it matters right now
- History Is the Training Data: The chilling reality of what gets amplified when AI learns from a system that already wasn't built for us
- From Ceilings to Gaps: How Erica's mission is expanding from helping women navigate what exists to influencing what gets built next
- The Her Collective Play: Why the work was never meant to happen alone — and how AI is becoming a practical tool (not a gimmick) inside this community
- The One-Decision Rule: No overhauls. No waiting until you're ready. Just one pivot that compounds into the person you were always supposed to be
