The Real Cost of “Freedom”: How the Gig Economy Impacts Women and Families
This discussion will focus on the harsh realities of the gig economy, especially for women working in caregiving and delivery roles. Drawing inspiration from Sorry We Missed You, we’ll explore how economic systems leave workers—particularly women—facing impossible choices, constant exhaustion, and a complete lack of job security. The talk will highlight the intersection of gender, economic inequality, and the toll on family life, all while celebrating the strength and resilience of women in the workforce.
