Getting percentage total on bar chart

Hi there,

 

I am very new to power bi and was wondering if there is a way to show the percentage of total by gender and other string variables on my bar chart. 

 

I can't share data due to confidentiality but lets pretend this is my data and this is my bar chart from power bi. How do I get percentage of total client by gender shown on the chart? For instance, how can I get percentage of active female clients out of total female clients show on the chart?

 

Thank you in advance 🙂
