Fed up with the gender pay gap, MeggiePalmer has launched an app she describes as 'a fitbit but for your career which helps you track all your successes'.

The coronavirus pandemic has forced organisations to change the way they engage with the public, and Vogue Codes is no exception. The hugely successful forum empowering women with the help of technology is going digital this year, offering online events and free virtual webinars. Founder of PepTalkHer Meggie Palmer told Sky News she was “really passionate about helping women be paid equally”.

“I was really frustrated when I found out little girls get less pocket money than little boys, and women across the board are paid 20 per cent less than their male colleagues,” she said. “Frankly, I was just really annoyed by these statistics so I wanted to do something about it, I didn’t want to just sit there and complain.” Ms Palmer launched a free app called PepTalkHer which she described as “kind of like a fitbit but for your career”.

MeggiePalmer I am fed up with Unicorns, perhaps it’s time to make myself an app?

MeggiePalmer Why is this fake phenomenon making a come back?

MeggiePalmer Why is it, a male friend ~ Australian ~ has to date, since April, applied for 167 jobs. Of that, 167 have gone to women..? He wants white collar employment in the finance sector... Australian employment agent said he should get a forklift license 😱 Gender PayGap is BS!!!

MeggiePalmer so is she saying a male doctor gets paid more than a female, or a male teacher gets paid more than a female or a male Woolworth check out get paid more than female..pay is related to quality and quantity..name one field this happens with equal work...just for my knowledge.

MeggiePalmer If we’re trying to correct the gender pay gap why doesn’t it go both ways and correct the gender inequality when it comes to child custody. Men are getting screwed in the courts and you don’t hear about that.

MeggiePalmer The make believe pay gap that helps feminists to remain prominent? Surely there aren’t still people out there that hasn’t done the research to know it’s not true. Should we look at the gap between male and female models?

MeggiePalmer 😅🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣😂😂 So funny!! Meggie might make a few bucks from idiots who subscribe to the butthurt notions of a pay gap so in her case the app could be a cash cow! Entrepreneurial genius. Fucken hilarious!
