Dr Golda Romano | Motherhood, Beauty Standards and the Pressure on Women

In this new episode of Voices of Women at Work, Dr. Golda Romano shares her perspective as a plastic, reconstructive, and aesthetic surgeon.

She reflects on what it means to be a woman at work today: building independence, pursuing ambitions, but also navigating a professional environment that is still poorly adapted to motherhood.

Through her personal experience, she discusses the mental load, work-life balance, the responsibilities that women sometimes take on more than they deserve, and the all-too-present reality of having to prove one’s worth, even when one’s work speaks for itself.

She also questions the beauty standards imposed on women, especially younger women, and reiterates a fundamental belief: cosmetic surgery should complement and enhance, never create unrealistic bodies.

A conversation about motherhood, societal pressures, responsibility, and the necessary transformations to make the workplace fairer for women.
