THE NOISE
Messages from Family:
Business is a challenging field for a woman to go into.
How I responded:
Each day, we all make decisions that are impactful to finances. Working in business is not different with those decisions impacting others.
Experiences and challenges that shaped me
I was very focused on my differences from others and as a result developed a habit of observing others' behaviors and norms to inform how I should act. This skill has benefited me along the way as I picked up cues about what I should do differently.
