So *that’s* why offices are so cold… And sure, while this seems like a small detail, it does support the fact that so many things in our daily lives were designed by men, for men. Small changes lead to BIG transformation, even if it starts with tapping the ⬆️ button on the thermostat. 👉 @jamilarizvi
Breaking records continues to be Caitlin Clark’s *thing*. The latest news for the basketball star is a historic $28 million brand deal with Nike, complete with a signature shoe—and she hasn’t even played one WNBA game yet. This follows plenty of commentary around Clark’s first-year base salary of $76,535, that’s already predictably paling in comparison to the massive endorsement deals coming her way.
Salary transparency is not just the right thing to do – it’s the law (in some places). As 2023, California, Rhode Island, and Washington joined the growing list of locations across the U.S. where salary transparency is mandated. This means, roughly 1 in 4 U.S. workers live in a place where employers are required to share pay ranges by law, according to a Payscale analysis. But 25% isn’t enough. As the old adage goes, you don’t know until you know. Salary is no longer a hush-hush ordeal, it’s a pathway to achieving #equality. 💵
That’s what she said 💥 Here are a few wise words we’re living by lately.
Need a mental break after that meeting that could have been an email? Cue up your teenage jams. Science says it’s good for you! (We need playlist inspo—leave your favorite throwback in the comments below.) 👉 @nikkiroy.collection stitch with @chelsieashley_ #mentalhealth
New research shines a spotlight on the crucial role of women doctors. A study published in the Annals of Internal Medicine found that women are less likely to return to the hospital or die when treated by women doctors. Why? Records suggest that female doctors tend to operate more slowly and may achieve better results by taking their time, communicate more clearly and aren’t dismissive of women’s pain. Studies show that women’s pain is taken far less seriously than men’s, often dismissed entirely. This leads to delayed treatment or misdiagnosis. Medical bias effects women and people of color. This is especially true for Black women, who have some of the highest maternal mortality rates. ⁣We need to raise awareness about this critical issue and always be sure to advocate for yourself & others: Speak up if you feel unheard or dismissed at the doctor’s office!

The “Dead Loop” is a classic, albeit highly dangerous, gymnastics number that was banned after the 1972 Munich #Olympics—but not before Olga Korbut’s Dead Loop became the only one ever documented. While you might not see the move performed at any high-level sporting competitions again, you have full permission to be mesmerized by the move, AKA the Korbut Flip 🤸‍♀️
Dads are spending more, intentional time with their children than past generations. And it’s no surprise that a father’s presence and involvement directly affects a child cognitively, emotionally, socially, and behaviorally. Some positive findings: ➡️ 97% of dads today are changing diapers compared to 60% in a 1982 study ➡️ Between 1989 and 2014, there has been a 70% increase in the number of stay-at-home dads ➡️ Since the 90s, the number of dads taking paternity leave has quadrupled ➡️ Today’s dads are spending 3X more time with their kids than they did 50 years ago ➡️ They’re also spending triple the amount of time caring for their children than dads did in 1965 🎥 Neil Murray via Viralhog

A new study found that women only accounted for 28% of main characters in film in 2023 — a 5% decrease from 2022. And the ratio of speaking lines between men and women still remains unbalanced: women accounted for 35% of all speaking characters in 2023, while men had 65%. Not only are women’s lines limited but the actual #representation of women on screen is still vastly outnumbered by men — 77% of films featured more male than female characters and only 18% of films had more female than male characters. Of those female speaking characters, 54.7% were white, 16.7% were Black, 7.6% were Latina and 6.7% were Asian. Thank you, #JessicaChastain, for so perfectly bringing this to life!
