Glass Walls: The Hidden Barriers Holding Women Back at Work

We all know “glass ceilings.” But Dr. Amy Diehl says the bigger problem is glass walls—the invisible barriers that block women sideways, out of key rooms, relationships, stretch assignments, and leadership paths. In this episode of Loud & Lifted, Amy shares the research behind her book Glass Walls and breaks down the six core barriers that make up workplace gender bias: male privilege, disproportionate constraints, insufficient support, devaluation, hostility, and acquiescence. We talk about how bias shows up in real life (hello, “office housework” and “he-peating”), why women get punished for the same behaviors men are rewarded for, and what leaders, allies, and women can do next—starting with a simple tool Amy calls “Flip it to test it.” If you’ve ever felt like you’re doing everything “right” and still running into invisible resistance… this one will hit.
