Women and Gatekeeping — How It Keeps Us Back Rather Than Helps Us Forward

Gatekeeping doesn’t always look like exclusion. Sometimes it looks like silence, withheld information, or opportunities that never get shared.
In this solo episode of TheBeyondWoman Conversations Podcast, host Jacqueline Johnson explores how gatekeeping — especially among women — quietly limits growth, leadership, and collective success. Grounded in real-world experience, Caribbean context, and research-backed insight, this episode challenges the scarcity mindset many women were conditioned to adopt and offers a healthier, more sustainable alternative.
This is not a conversation about blame.It’s about awareness, responsibility, and building a culture where women don’t just rise — they rise together.
What We Cover in This Episode
What gatekeeping really looks like in women’s spaces (and why it often goes unnoticed)
The historical and cultural roots of scarcity thinking among women
Why access, networks, and sponsorship matter more than talent alone
Research-backed insights on how collaboration improves leadership outcomes and mental health
Real-life examples of gatekeeping in workplaces, business, and community spaces
The growing counterculture of women who “gate-open” instead of gatekeeping
The difference between mentorship and sponsorship — and why both matter
The personal and economic benefits of letting go of gatekeeping
Practical, actionable ways to build supportive, high-achieving women’s communities
References
World Bank data on women’s workforce participation and leadership gaps
Harvard-affiliated research on networks, sponsorship, and career advancement
UN Women insights on gender, access, and economic inclusion
Caribbean-specific realities around informal networks and opportunity flow
(References discussed conversationally during the episode)
Gatekeeping may feel like protection in the moment — but over time, it limits impact, isolates leadership, and slows collective progress. Real power isn’t holding the key. It’s changing who gets access in the first place.
Listener Challenge
This week:
Speak a woman’s name in a room she’s not in
Share an opportunity you could have kept to yourself
Make one introduction that costs you nothing but could change everything
That’s how cultures shift. That’s how power moves.

From Waiting to Winning : A Call for Women of Color to Step Into Greatness

What happens when you stop waiting to be chosen—and choose yourself instead?
In this powerful episode of TheBeyondWoman Podcast, host J sits down with Charise Beckett, leadership strategist, author, and advocate for women of colour who are redefining leadership beyond titles, burnout, and outdated systems.
Charise shares her journey of navigating corporate spaces where her voice was often minimized, the moment she decided to stop waiting for permission, and how that decision led her to build a thriving business rooted in both excellence and wellness. She introduces her P.O.I.S.E.™ Framework, a practical approach designed to help women lead with clarity, confidence, and sustainability—without sacrificing themselves in the process.
This conversation is honest, affirming, and deeply practical. If you’ve ever struggled with self-doubt, imposter syndrome, or the pressure to shrink to fit in, this episode will meet you right where you are—and challenge you to rise.
In this episode, we cover:
The defining moment Charise stopped waiting for validation and chose herself
The real challenges women of colour face in leadership spaces
How to thrive beyond burnout instead of glorifying it
Shifting from hesitation to confident action
Leading before the title and owning your voice
Honouring cultural identity in business and leadership
Protecting wellness while pursuing ambition
Building legacies that reflect your voice—not pre-set molds

More Than Titles: Dee-Ann Kentish-Rogers on Owning Her Voice and Vision

This episode is one for the books.
In this intimate, soul-stirring conversation, Jacqueline sits down with Dee-Ann Kentish-Rogers, attorney-at-law, athlete, politician, trailblazer, and the first Black Caribbean woman crowned Miss Universe Great Britain. But today, titles take a back seat. What unfolds is an honest, grounded, sister-to-sister conversation between two Caribbean women who carry big dreams, big purpose, and even bigger vision for our region.
You’ll hear Dee-Ann open up about what shaped her, what grounded her, and what keeps her anchored as she navigates the world as a woman committed to integrity, service, and possibility. She shares candid reflections on growing up in Anguilla, the roots of her resilience, and how being from a “small place” has actually carved out her strongest superpowers.
Together, we dive into the realities of Caribbean leadership, the challenges we still face as women, and why “small island, big dreams” is needed. Dee-Ann also speaks on community, Caribbean pride, the weight and beauty of representation, and the layers that make up her multidimensional life.
This episode feels like sitting outside on a breezy Caribbean evening, chatting with a wise, real, and deeply committed friend who is committed to seeing her people rise.
IN THIS EPISODE WE COVER:
What really led Dee-Ann into politics
The childhood seeds of focus, drive, and discipline
How she navigates public life with integrity
“Small Island, Big Dreams” — and why the world needs our perspective
How she defines Caribbean women's power
The one thing she would change in the world today
Who she dreams of meeting and so much more...
WHY YOU SHOULD LISTEN
If you are a Caribbean woman with ambition, purpose, or dreams that feel “too big,” this episode will affirm you, steady you, and remind you that your roots are not a limitation—they are a launchpad. Dee-Ann’s honesty, clarity, and conviction will light something up in you.

The Weight He Doesn’t Speak Of—Exploring The Pain, Pressure, and Love Men Carry in Silence.

This week on The BeyondWoman Conversations, we open the floor to a subject that often stays buried beneath strength and silence — the emotional, mental, and relational weight that men carry but rarely speak of.
Our guests — Faith Waltson, Barry Groves, and Coach Jherrel Peters — share honest reflections and expert insight on how expectations, love, pain, and pressure shape the inner lives of men.
We experienced a minor technical issue at the outset (real-life moments happen!), but the essence of this dialogue quickly takes center stage. What follows is an eye-opening, truth-telling exchange that challenges stereotypes, encourages vulnerability, and reminds us that healing and understanding are a two-way process.
As we acknowledge Depression Awareness Month, this episode feels especially timely. Statistics continue to show rising rates of depression among men, many of whom suffer in silence. This conversation is our small way of breaking that silence, reminding men (and those who love them) that vulnerability is not weakness, and healing begins when we dare to speak.
🎧 Listen now to “The Weight He Doesn’t Speak Of” — a raw, real, and necessary conversation on the pain, pressure, and love men carry in silence.

“Taking the Leap: Monique Farquharson on Culture, Courage & Matcha

From Jamaica to Japan to now the UK — Monique Farquharson’s story is one of guts, grace, and going after what calls you. She’s the founder of The Matcha Yaad, the first Jamaican Matcha company, and she’s not afraid to mix  cultures, break molds, and build something the world hasn’t seen before.
When Monique Farquharson left Jamaica for Japan, she didn’t just cross continents—she stepped into a season of radical courage and self-discovery. What started as a leap of faith turned into a life built across cultures, from the quiet discipline of Japan to her new chapter in the UK.
In this episode, Monique talks about taking the leap—leaving her job, moving halfway across the world, becoming a mother, and turning curiosity into a global brand. It’s about faith, courage, and doing the thing even when nobody gets it.
From matcha mornings in Japan to bold new beginnings in the UK, this conversation is about choosing yourself, moving when it doesn’t make sense, and carrying your roots wherever you go.

Beyond the Bloom: Nurturing Women’s Health and Wellness

In this episode, we speak with Dr. Terri-Ann Thompson for an honest, empowering conversation on women’s health and wellness.
Dr. Thompson is a Senior Research Scientist at Ibis Reproductive Health with over 15 years of experience in public health. She specializes in examining the impact of reproductive health policies and care models, while centering the voices and needs of women and diverse communities. As part of her work, she partners with community-based organizations, health care providers, advocates, and other stakeholders to ensure research questions align well with people’s priorities, amplify the experience of disparate populations, and examine how existing policies and services could better serve people’s needs. Prior to joining Ibis, Terri-Ann worked for Yale University School of Medicine (YSM), directing the coordinating center for the Eastern Caribbean Health Outcomes Research Network (ECHORN).
In this episode, she sheds light on some of the most pressing issues women face today—why reproductive health conditions often go undiagnosed, how we can break the stigma around menstruation, and what it really means to prepare for menopause. She also shares practical ways women can protect their mental health, maintain vitality as they age, and embrace a holistic view of wellness that nurtures body, mind, and spirit.
This conversation is a must-listen for every woman ready to prioritize her health and reclaim her well-being.

How Social Conditioning Keeps Women Playing Small—and How to Break Free

Welcome back to TheBeyondWoman Conversations Podcast with your host, Jacqueline Johnson, founder of TheBeyondWoman.
This is the space where we talk real, rise higher, and reclaim what’s always been ours.
Perhaps you’ve been questioning yourself lately—Wondering why you still hesitate…Why you shrink in certain rooms…Why you feel like you have to ask for permission to want more.
If that’s you, know this:You’re not alone—and you’re not imagining it.
In today’s episode, we’re pulling back the curtain on the subtle, yet powerful social conditioning that teaches women to stay in line, tone it down, and make themselves smaller.
But no more.
This conversation is necessary, especially for the woman who feels the nudge to take up more space…Who’s tired of playing by quiet rules she never agreed to…And who’s finally ready to break free.
In this episode, we cover:
Why many women still feel like they need permission
Everyday signs you’re playing small (without realizing it)
How cultural norms and silent expectations hold us back
Practical mindset shifts to help you rise boldly
Questions you can ask yourself to start showing up differently
A Quote to Remember:
“You don’t need permission to be powerful. You just need to remember that you already are.”
Listen now and share with a woman who needs to hear this.
