Ladies, how many times have you smiled through something that made you want to scream? Kalki Koechlin put words to something so many women know intimately: sometimes silence isn't weakness. Sometimes it's strategy. We love telling women to "just speak up." But things are much more nuanced than that. What if speaking up could cost you the opportunity? The paycheck? The room you're trying so hard to earn a seat in? These are the mental gymnastics all women go through and IT. IS. EXHAUSTING. In this latest episode of Shame Less with Lilly Singh, we talk about the tradeoffs and the impossible standards women are still expected to meet. But that's why conversations like this matter. Because when women share the calculations we've all been making in silence, they stop feeling so lonely. And that's where sisterhood begins 💪🏽 This episode of Shame Less With Lilly Singh is presented by my charity, Unicorn Island Fund. Watch the full conversation with Kalki on YouTube. Link in bio.
