Join Elle as she dives deep into the complex relationship between influencer brands and societal expectations in "The Dark Truth Behind the Influencer to CEO Pipeline." This episode explores how female founders are transforming the business landscape while facing uniquely gendered criticism. Elle examines the recent Matilda Djerf controversy as a case study of how although the main criticisms are valid, it is also a reflection of how we hold women in power to impossible standards, and challenges listeners to question whether our criticism of female founders stems from legitimate concerns or internalized misogyny. The episode concludes with an optimistic look at how women are redefining power structures in business, making entrepreneurship more transparent and accessible than ever before.
