Description

Alice Milligan left home at 19 to escape a dysfunctional family life. Her peers went to college right out of high school. Meanwhile, Alice spent ten years getting her college degree while working full-time to support herself. She had no choice but to be resilient, independent, and patient. Decades later, and faced with choosing between a dream job or staying near her husband awaiting a liver transplant, Alice shares how the patience she cultivated as a young woman guided her choice.


In this episode of 9 to 5ish, Alice shares: 



  • Her deep cut bagel order (cinnamon raisin fans, rejoice)

  • The strong women in her life who helped her navigate leaving home 

  • Why working in HR in her early career served her well throughout her career

  • How she rationalized her choice of remaining close to her family or taking on her dream job 

  • How Morgan Stanley prioritizes women feeling financially empowered – and how the company’s new marketing initiatives reflect that
