A person climbs a tall white wooden ladder with a broken rung against a clear blue sky at dusk.

Beyond the Broken Rung-The Real Reason Women Can’t Break Through in 2025

For years, we’ve been told the problem is at the top.
The elusive C-suite. The final glass ceiling.
But what if the real issue isn’t just the ceiling?
What if it’s the ladder itself?
According to research, for every 100 men promoted from entry-level to manager, only 81 women are promoted, and the numbers are even lower for women of color. This is what’s known as the broken rung-the first step up that too many women are missing.

A woman stands in a modern glass-walled office, holding papers and talking on her mobile phone, maintaining her reputation as a dedicated professional; a conference table and chairs are visible in the background.

You’re The CEO Of Your Own Reputation. Because if you don’t define it, someone else will.

Let’s get one thing straight: Your reputation is not what people say about you.

It’s what people believe about you…when you’re not in the room.

And whether your realize it or not, you’re building it every single day.

In a world that constantly tries to put women in boxes…”too much”, “not enough”, “too ambitious”, “not read”…you have a choice. You can let others write the narrative…or you can own the pen.

Being the CEO of your own reputation means getting crystal clear on what you want to be known for…and backing that up with how you show up, communicate and lead. It’s not about polishing a brand. It’s about embodying your values. Consistently.

A woman with long blonde hair, wearing glasses, a beige coat, and scarf stands on a stone ledge next to a glass railing outside a modern building, subtly capturing the concept of the glass cliff.

The Glass Cliff Phenomenon: Why Women Leaders Are Set Up To Fail (And How To Turn It Into Your Advantage)

That’s the scenario too many women in leadership find themselves in. The title is shiny. The stakes are high. And the situation? Often a mess. Welcome to the Glass Cliff…a term coined to describe the unsettling reality that women are more likely to be placed in leadership roles during times of turbulence, decline or flat-out failure.

A woman exudes confidence in business attire as she stands by a chair in an office, next to a desk with a computer monitor and a microphone.

The Confidence Trap: Why Experience Alone Won’t Make You Feel Ready (And What To Do Instead)

You’ve checked the boxes. Earned the degrees. Gained the titles. Led the teams.

So why don’t you feel more confident?

That’s the Confidence Trap…believing that more experience will automatically erase self-doubt. For many high-achieving women, especially in male-dominated industries, confidence doesn’t grow in parallel with competence. It often lags behind it.

Two women sit in an office space, engaged in a conversation about leadership. One woman gestures with her hands while the other listens attentively.

Develop Others As You Develop Yourself

True leadership isn’t about collecting wins. It’s about creating impact…for yourself and for others. The world doesn’t need more titles or accolades. It needs more women who lift as they climb.

You don’t have to mentor everyone. But you can become the leader you once needed. And in doing so, you create a ripple effect that outlives your job title, your business card or your current role.

A woman in a yellow sweater stands smiling in the foreground, embodying resilience, while four people sit and talk in the background of a bright office setting.

Resilience Isn’t About Bouncing Back…It’s About Bouncing Forward

What if resilience isn’t about returning to who you were, but becoming who you’re meant to be?

For women especially, challenges show up in every corner of life-personally, professionally and in the space in between. Sometimes, it’s a sudden disruption in your career. Other times, it’s a family situation you didn’t see coming. And while it might feel tempting to retreat under the covers with your favorite blanket and call it a day…life has other plans.

A woman stands and smiles while showcasing her skill as she presents to a group of people who are seated and applauding in a modern office setting.

What Skill Set Have You Been Downplaying?
