Interview with Linda Smith, Esq., Author of Smashing Glass and Kicking Ass

According to the self-described “meanest woman alive”, even if a woman is brilliant and powerful she often uses tentative, non-assertive speech in the business world. This is called "women speech." It's indirect and polite, while men’s speech is often more assertive and direct. Why is this? Because many women fear that assertive language makes them pushy, or a "B-word." But let's take a playbook from the “Meanest Woman Alive,” Linda Smith, Esq., author of "Smashing Glass and Kicking Ass."

Richard “Capt’n” Henderson and Sherilyn Colleen interview Linda Smith (www.themeanestwomanalive.com). She discusses her fight to overturn stereotypes, and that it doesn't make you a "jerk" to state your view as clearly as a man would. Women should show confidence, and change gender roles.
