Does Height REALLY Impact Career Success? | What It's Like Being A Tall Woman In The Workplace

Today’s episode is actually inspired by a couple of TikTok videos I’ve seen recently. It started off with a tall girl video-ing herself what text on the screen saying “me at work” or something of that sort. Then it cuts to screenshots of people (stock images of course) with things that these people in the workplace have said to her because she’s tall. So things like “Oh I wish I had your height” or “Why don’t you play basketball?” and so forth lol 

I thought it was funny; I thought it was a joke so I kept scrolling. Then I came across ANOTHER video of a tall girl talking about how she was in a meeting for work and that the person said “Oh, you’re taller than I expected”. And then I was like oh…so stuff like this happens for real lol?? Do people actually make comments about our height in professional settings? 

Now, the thing is I’m mainly remote. I’m a freelance marketer and I go into some type of office, professional setting like one day a week. And that’s only been happening for a few weeks. So I can’t really speak on the experiences of being a tall woman in the workplace. So I did what anyone else would do and took my inquiries to the Internet - aka Reddit and you guys lol. 

So I asked y’all on Instagram what your experiences have been like in the workplace as tall women. Because let’s face it, people say that tall people tend to be more successful in their careers, get paid more, etc. And by tall people, they mean tall men. Let’s find out if tall women’s experiences are the same or different. Tune into the full episode!
