QUOTES AND KEY TAKEAWAYS
“I have never gone wrong on betting on myself.”
“Confidence is having the trust and knowing in your abilities that even when you’re in a situation that you don’t understand that you can trust yourself to figure it out.”
“Helping Number 2s become Number 1s in work and life. They get some competent as a Number 2 they never get to access their place of genius. They get stuck or pigeonholed.”
“As soon as you identify something as a problem, it’s attached to a threat. Versus calling it ‘solution strategy’ which immediately puts it in their prefrontal cortex. Immediately has it as ‘What options do I have?’ “
Glass Cliff Assignment: “Brought in as a last chance candidate to a position because no one else in their right mind would take it.”
Visionary: “Successful women tend to be able to see something with potential before others see it and be able to bring others along.”
“We need to find a way to use and leverage our social capital (our political capital) for our own uses because we are really good at doing it for others.”
“How can you change your relationship to self doubt? If you accepted from now on that those voices are there; they’re just there. How you react to them or respond to them , you get to have control over.”
