How Women Are Rewriting the Rules of Cybersecurity Leadership
In this episode of 2 Cyber Chicks, we sit down with Aarti Gadhia, a cybersecurity leader who isn’t interested in fitting the mold, she’s here to redesign it.
We dig into what it really takes to lead in cybersecurity today: navigating perception versus reality, owning your voice in high-stakes environments, and pushing back against outdated leadership norms. Aarti shares her personal journey, the moments that shaped her confidence, and how she balances authenticity with executive presence in rooms that weren’t built with her in mind.
This is a candid, thoughtful, and energizing conversation about:
What real leadership looks like in cyber (beyond titles)
How women and underrepresented leaders shape influence without permission
The unspoken rules of executive spaces—and when to break them
Building credibility without losing yourself
If you’ve ever felt like you had to “perform” to be taken seriously in tech or security, this episode is for you.
