Happy New Year FGB's and welcome to 2022!

Are you a GenX woman contemplating your next move? Discriminating based on age is rampant and still considered okay in many workplaces. You are not "too old". Don't allow others to define you or what you can or cannot learn. Continue to learn. We need multi-generational workplaces to produce the best work and to have the most creative solutions to the issues that we face. Age diversity is critical to ALL companies.

Why women love us:

Daily articles on career topics
Jobs at companies dedicated to hiring more women
Advice and support from an authentic community
Events that help you level up in your career
Free membership, always

So true. I completed my master's degree in communication last year at the age of 56. It is never too late to learn, grow, and change.

I, fortunately, don't look my age as a GenXer but it's definitely something that I've seen in the past. Diversity is how we survive and I wish more people would recognize that.
