Babe,
It's important to self-advocate EVEN if it "rocks the boat."
This could be hard for many of us women who in the past felt our thoughts weren't valid or we had to keep the peace in the fam.
But bringing this past behavior in the workplace only hinders success.
For example...in a past work scenario, i'd think "how come I'm not in xyz position to showcase my skills?"
-But did I advocate for myself and challenge when I didn't agree with certain performance evals?
-Speak up for my ideas and my interests?
-Clearly communicate expectations?
& as mentioned, this becomes a lot easier when we remind our younger self that its safe to activate our voice now.
We don't need to neglect ourselves and our thoughts anymore.
Let's increase our voices and bank accounts, baby!
