Being your own Hollywood Agent with equal pay advocate Meggie Palmer

When was the last time you got a raise? What about the last time you advocated for a raise? If you’re a man like Osher it’s one thing - however It’s a very different story for women in the workforce, and the gap between what men and women get paid for the same job in our country is 12%. That is not insignificant. Thankfully, Meggie Palmer is here to help. A former foreign correspondent, she now heads the tech startup PepTalkHer.com - a platform deigned to help women in the workforce advocate for themselves around better conditions, a better career path and ultimately better pay. Meggie is an absolute powerhouse. Osher caught up with her across the Pacific from where she lives in Brooklyn and this conversation will have you rearing to go when it comes to my next negotiation. ‌ For extra content, for the heads up on early access to live shows, and to ask a question for Monday’s QnA - subscribe to The Better Than Yesterday Substack Hosted on Acast.
