Journalist Jessica Bennett and her friends were all creatives striving for professional success in New York City. But some subtle (and not so subtle) bouts of sexism in the workplace were getting in the way of their hustle.

On the podcast, Jessica discusses her early days as a crime beat reporter, who a bropropriator is, and why women should support other women. Learn more about your ad choices.
