Lol no. I live near a Navy base.

I see a lot of women across fields, but it get less the higher up you go in a power hierarchy. For instance about 75% of teachers are women. But when you look at school superintendents, only about 25% are women.

Somewhat. I live in DC. Starting to see more diversity amongst upper management (no longer your typical straight white older male).

I'm in a town w a few bases so women living here vs working in real career fields prob isn't great. Almost every girl my age i see on bumble bff moved here for her man's job and many are SAHMs already (which is still work, but not usually what people define as a profession)

Which level in which professions that you are asking about? This is a very broad question and the answer you get would be based on personal view on what is important to the person. I'm sure there are some professions that men are much more than women and vice versa, especially low level positions. Like I don't think I want to be represented in highway construction for example; I don't think it would be better or worse if more women are in this industry.

I am searching for anyone who was like me 6 years ago; sitting in public accounting, while secretly working with my small book of clients on the side hoping to get the nerve to leave. I want to connect with accountants that are ready to make the transition from employee to entrepreneur.

If that’s you – we should chat! I would love to share my experience with you, so you can avoid some pretty common pitfalls I made.
