As we near Women’s Equality Day, this episode of Break Free Podcast examines the quieter—but no less critical—ways accomplished women diminish their presence in professional and public spaces. In The Power of the Mic, host Seema Giri unpacks the internalized narratives that lead capable women to self-censor and explains why reclaiming visibility is not a performance—it’s a strategic act of leadership.

Listeners will gain insight into:
– The psychological and cultural factors that keep women’s voices subdued
– Why visibility functions as a leadership asset, not a branding tactic
– How to communicate authentically and authoritatively without performative selling
– A preview of the driving message behind the upcoming Break Free Summit

If you're ready to use your voice as a tool for change, tune in now—and consider applying to speak at the summit. Authority begins with articulation.
