What if workplaces were actually designed to serve working women and moms? For Reshma Saujani, the founder of Girls Who Code and the Marshall Plan for Moms, it’s a reality that’s long overdue. In this candid conversation with Shine's co-founders Marah and Naomi, Reshma talks about reaching her breaking point as a working mom, the burnout crisis, and how those most marginalized can stand in their power to protect their mental health at work.

Reshma's new book, Pay Up: The Future of Women and Work (and Why It's Different Than You Think), is available now.
