The New Future of Work ‪™‬ Monica Bourgeau

Monica interviews Kayla Osterhoff, a neuropsychophysiologist and women's health expert whose research is revolutionizing the field of women's health. As a woman in a male-dominant field of work, Kayla often found that she had to work in a masculine way that taxed her physical and mental health. Later she discovered that working in this way was not only taxing, but it was unnatural and harmful for her feminine biology.
In this episode, we talk about the differences between men and women and how we can better design the workplace to help women (and men too!) thrive.
