Ever catch yourself saying ‘Can I just say…’ before every meeting contribution? You're not alone. Nat and Kristen dig into why women are still waiting for invitations that aren't coming - from childhood praise for being ‘well-behaved’ to boardroom dynamics where men get called on eight times more than women. They share practical ways to ditch the permission-seeking phrases, ask for what you want, and get comfortable with hearing ‘no.’ In summary: stop asking who's going to let you - start asking who's going to stop you!
