Opening excerpt (first ~120 words) tap to expand

Most workers have no idea whether they’re underpaid. Companies rarely volunteer salary information, coworkers often avoid uncomfortable comparisons, and negotiating in the dark can leave thousands of dollars on the table. Recommended Video Content creator Hannah Williams knows that firsthand. After realizing pay secrecy had limited her own earning potential, she built a social media brand dedicated to pulling back the curtain on what people really make. The 29-year-old is the creator and host of Salary Transparent Street: a digital media brand fighting the taboo of talking about money. Her 1 million Instagram followers and 1.5 million TikTok fans tune in to watch her on-the-street content, where everyday workers are asked about what they do and how much they make.

Excerpt limited to ~120 words for fair-use compliance. The full article is at Fortune.
