Women hold the world together—yet much of what we do remains hidden in plain sight. From caregiving and raising children to providing emotional support and nurturing relationships, these essential contributions often go unnoticed and undervalued. Even worse, we sometimes fail to give ourselves credit for the life-changing roles we play. In this episode of Women Road Warriors, we’re joined by Dr. Janelle Wells and Dr. Doreen MacAulay, award-winning scholars at the University of South Florida and authors of Our In-Visible Work. Their groundbreaking research reveals how the lack of recognition for their contributions not only suppresses women but also disempowers them across workplaces, families, and communities. Both serve as regular columnists for Psychology Today and are on a mission to expose this hidden invalidation and advocate for the acknowledgment women have long deserved for the important roles they play often in the background. This conversation aspires to inspire a re-evaluation of how we perceive and value the vital yet frequently overlooked labor that women perform daily. Tune in to this episode for a powerful, eye-opening conversation that will change the way you view “invisible” work—and inspire you to start valuing the roles that too often go unrecognized.www.wellsquest.comhttps://womenroadwarriors.com/ https://womenspowernetwork.net#OurInvisibleWork #JanelleWells #DoreenMacAulay #ShelleyMJohnson #ShelleyJohnson #KathyTuccaro #WomenRoadWarriors #WomensEmpowerment women empowerment, invisible work, emotional labor, women in the workplace, caregiving responsibilities, recognition of women’s contributions, workplace culture,
