Understanding Gender Intelligence and the Power of the Female Mind with Barbara Annis

Did you know that the female brain and male brain are different? You are probably thinking, “No kidding, Jen.” Remember the book Men Are From Mars, Women at From Venus? My guest today, Barbara Annis, has made it her life’s work to study gender intelligence and the brilliance of the female mind.

For most of my career, I have tried to mold myself into a man’s world. It was a refreshing perspective to hear Barbara talk about why that isn’t needed, and quite frankly, why it is a waste of time because all women, including me, need to own their own strengths.

During the podcast, Barbara and I chatted about:

1. What is gender intelligence, and why is it important?
2. What led Barbara to write her latest book, The Brilliance of the Female Mind: How Women are Transforming the World.
3. How men’s and women’s minds are different?
4. How can we nurture as strengths as women?
5. What are the confidence pitfalls we face as women? What actions can we take to correct these pitfalls?
6. The assessment we can take on Barbara’s Gender Intelligence website.
