Do you think you're paid what you're worth?

Our guest is Claire Wasserman--an educator, author, and founder of Ladies Get Paid, an educational platform, global community, and book that champions the professional and financial advancement of women.
She knows what she's talking about because she holds a Master’s Certificate in Behavioral Finance and Financial Psychology and has devoted her life to improving diversity, equity, inclusion, and belonging for women in the workplace.
She's traveled the country teaching thousands of women how to negotiate millions of dollars in raises, start businesses, and advocate for themselves in the workplace.
