In this episode, Michelle sits down with powerhouse media executive and entrepreneur Gemma O’Neill, whose 25-year career spans high-stakes negotiations, creative reinvention, and building spaces for women to thrive.

• The exact steps of a successful negotiation and how to set the tone with confidence
• Why women are naturally good at negotiating
• How to use language, energy, and even your outfit to shift negotiation fear into power
• Why women still lag behind in salary conversations and how to change that
