This week on the on the Well Woman Show, I talk to Dr. C. Nicole Mason. the president and chief executive officer of the Institute for Women’s Policy Research (IWPR), a leading voice on pay equity, economic policies, and research impacting women. Having stepped into this role in November 2019, Dr. Mason is the youngest person currently leading one of the major inside-the-Beltway think tanks in Washington, D.C., and one of the few women of color to do so. She succeeded noted economist and MacArthur Fellow Heidi Hartmann, the Institute’s founding CEO.

We discuss:

Why don’t women earn the same as their male counterparts?

What can women do to bridge this wage gap?

What was the impact of COVID-19 on our wage gap in America?

I want to let you know that during the month of May the Well Woman Show will welcome a series of guest hosts who are past guests on the show and in honor of Mother’s Day they will interview their own moms. We’ve already started production on this and I can tell you – these stories are not to be missed! We will have Babsy Sinandile interviewing her mom Nkazi Sinandile who left her rural village in South Africa to build a life of service here in the US.

She is the founder and director of Maze Women’s Sexual Health, the country’s largest independent women’s sexual health center, where for 20 years, she has developed and overseen the treatment of thousands of women. A Licensed Clinical Social worker with a master’s in public health, a master’s degree in social work, and a PhD in Human Sexuality, Dr. Marcus has been profiled in numerous publications, including the New York Times Magazine and is a frequent guest on TV, radio, and podcasts.

In her new book, SEX POINTS: Reclaim Your Sex Life with the Revolutionary Multi-Point System, this “Queen of Vibrators” and the “Orthodox Sex Guru” grounds her practical, useful advice in the core belief that “good sex is possible for everyone, at every age, in every situation,” and that solutions exist for nearly every problem.

We discuss:

Why is understanding our sex life so important?

How do we avoid feeling broken in our relationships?
