We Have To Stop Judging

Despite My Professional Experience, The Fifteen-hour Workdays, And A Successful New Show That I Had Helped Build, Msnbc Was Still Refusing To Pay Me What I Was Worth.

My Salary Situation At 'morning Joe' Wasn't Right. I Made Five Attempts To Fix It, Then Realized I'd Made The Same Mistake Every Time: I Apologised For Asking.

At Almost Forty Years Old, I Assumed My Career On Camera Was Over. And I Was Certainly Given That Message By All The Tv Managers And News Directors Who Passed On Me When I Was Trying To Get A Job Back In The Business.

Everyday I Find Myself Reminding Women Around Me To Know Their Value. I Also Have To Remind Myself.

We Have To Unclutter Our Brains From Worries That Maybe People Don't Like Us. Women Tend To Worry About Popularity; It Doesn't Matter If They Like You. They Need To Respect You. They Need To Show That Respect For You In Your Pay Check. And That Needs To Be Okay.
