Empowerment and Equality: A Journey Through Gender Roles and Career Progression

In this episode of The Educational Dilemma Emma Goldsmith, Dupe Witherick (Human Design Consultant, Podcast Host, Author, and Accredited Alcohol-Free Wellbeing & Transformational Coach), and Tom Schuller (OD 1961) (Academic, International Bureaucrat, and Author of The Paula Principal) discuss how gender can affect your child’s experience throughout their education and into the work force. They talk about the difficulties different genders might encounter, how this might have changed over the years, and how we can promote equality and empower our children as educators and parents. They also touch on how jobs of the future are going to be vastly different from what we know now, and how we can support children to embrace and thrive in careers that we’re currently unfamiliar with. We hope you enjoy this discussion as much as we did.
