Women, who once made up over 50% of the workforce, have been exiting the job market in record numbers thanks to the COVID-19 pandemic and economic repercussions. Stemming from the feminization of poverty by low wage 'pink collar' occupations, women have historically been challenged to balance the increasing costs of childcare with their career aspirations. Further complicating things, the massive exodus from the workforce has impacted women of color even more severely. Sarah & Lacey reflect on this alarming trend, and discuss some of the key factors that can either help fix the problem, or continue to make it worse. How can we drive progress at a time when more women than ever are slipping out of the corporate landscape?
