Quotes

“ Women always have to, you know, walk that fine tightrope.”

“ I can envision a world where women are really truly valued for what we bring to the table so that we're not having to play it like a man would play it. We have differences and that's great. “

“ Instead of just waiting for the world to change, there's this one element that contributes a great deal to the level of success that we reach and it's about confidence and that is entirely in our control to build.”

“ The more success you have, the more risks you're willing to take.”

“ If you are a man, you're most likely getting promoted based on your potential, whereas women tend to get promoted based on their track record.”
