      She read that women with deeper voices get taken more seriously by people around them and can be seen here messing it up.

      Our silly monkey brains interpret deeper voices as being more authoritative.

      It’s likely she was taking advantage of that human quirk to make her seem, on a subconscious level, like a better businessperson.

        No, the reason is she did it because she read/heard that it would make others take her more seriously. That’s not the same as what you said.
