​Women face significant obstacles that impact their financial stability, career growth, and overall well-being. Despite advancements, many women continue to encounter systemic barriers and limited access to opportunities:

​​​

• 60% of women struggle with self-confidence, leading to missed opportunities for personal growth and challenges in asserting their needs, both in personal relationships and professional settings.

• 50% of women admit that they are less likely to speak up or assert their opinions in group settings due to fear of judgment or backlash.

• More than 80% of working women report feeling unable to advance in their careers due to a lack of mentorship, sponsorship, and professional networks, which are essential for growth and promotions.

• 40% of mothers are the primary or sole breadwinners in their households, yet they continue to earn significantly less than men, exacerbating financial stress.

• 70% of women business owners report feeling under-resourced and unsupported in their business growth journey, which significantly affects their ability to innovate and compete in the marketplace.

• ​Women-owned businesses experience 31% lower first-year sales compared to male-owned businesses, largely due to limited capital, smaller networks, and less visibility in their target markets.

• Women with a history of trauma are more likely to struggle with self-esteem issues, with 47% reporting low self-worth due to their experiences.

• 8 in 10 women admit that they put pressure on themselves to be perfect, which often results in burnout, anxiety, and a reluctance to take risks or pursue new ventures.

• ​70% of women experience imposter syndrome feeling unqualified or doubting their abilities despite their accomplishments, which affects their confidence and career growth.

 

These challenges translate to fewer opportunities, lower lifetime earnings, and diminished confidence—barriers we are determined to dismantle.
