TAKEAWAYS FROM THIS EPISODE:

Ask yourself what is unique about you. What assets have you picked up on your journey that you can transfer to the next phase of your journey? Ask other people that you respect what they thought of you when they first met you. What was their first impressions?  This can help you find your uniqueness that you might not even realize is your uniqueness. Look to women who inspire you and ask them what helped them get started. Not everything they bring up will be relevant to you, but you can take things from each conversation. Quit being your own worst critic. There are enough people judging you.  Be nice to yourself.   What is your leadership core? This is what you are most passionate about combined with what you are amazingly good at. Alignment is so crucial.
