The Girlboss era promised empowerment…but did it deliver?
I talk to Gina Clementi, founder of brand agency Goodstory and ex-Nike Global Digital Brand Manager for Nike Running and the London Olympics.
We uncover how surface-level empowerment masked deeper systemic issues, and why it’s time to rethink what leadership and feminism really mean at work.
Gina shares her experience navigating corporate giants like Nike and why she left to build something better. We talk burnout, performative feminism, pay equity (yes, she wants her 3 cents), and the future Gen Z is already creating. One with more care, more agency, and less BS.
We discuss:
What we need to unlearn from the Girlboss playbook
How performative feminism shows up in the workplace
Why Gen Z’s rejection of hustle culture is a good thing
The role men must play in creating real change
Moving from pinkwashing to policy
