What do parenting, leadership, and LinkedIn all have in common? More than you'd think — especially when you're building a career and raising tiny humans in a system that wasn't built for either.

This week, we sit down with Shali Rana Reed, a powerhouse in tech and unapologetic voice for women, working parents, and inclusive leadership. Together, we unpack:

• Why real leadership means holding the door and helping others through it

• How LinkedIn became her rally cry for equity, empathy, and empowerment

• The silent tax working moms still pay — and why it’s time to flip the bill

• Why failure is a feature, not a flaw (and why your kids need to see it)

Whether you're leading a team, raising a family, or figuring out how to do both without losing yourself — this one’s for you.

👉 Listen now. Share it with someone who needs to hear it. And let’s make room for real talk in B2B.

In this episode:

• Why one video won’t solve all your problems
