For too long, the path to the top for professional women has been paved with unspoken rules and the heavy, invisible weight of expectation. Now, 9to5Chick, a career launchpad for women in the early to mid-stages of their careers is pulling back the curtain with the global premiere of The Reset Show, debuting on April 9.
The numbers tell a story the boardroom rarely admits. Research shows that women hold less than 30% of senior leadership positions globally, yet studies consistently find that companies with gender-diverse leadership outperform their peers. In Nigeria, women make up nearly half the workforce but remain significantly underrepresented at the mid-level and C-suite level. Meanwhile, 75% of women report experiencing imposter syndrome at some point in their careers, and financial pressure tied to professional image costs working women thousands annually. The Reset Show exists to bridge that gap offering women the insight, language, and perspective to move forward with intention, not guesswork.
The Vision: Authenticity Over Assimilation
Dr. Glory Edozien has spent years building 9to5Chick into a trusted platform supporting women as they navigate pivotal career stages helping them gain clarity, build confidence, and make strategic decisions about their professional growth.
The Reset Show is a natural extension of that work meeting women where they already are: online, in transition, and searching for honest conversations that reflect their realities.
”For decades, professional women have been instructed to ‘lean in’ and play by a corporate rulebook that was never written for us,” states Dr. Glory Edozien, Founder of 9to5Chick. “The Reset Show’ takes us directly into the rooms where women silently battle imposter syndrome, financial pressure, and workplace politics. By bringing together leaders who have survived the boardroom and the corner office, we are finally discarding the old rules and creating the authentic playbook we always needed.
