I think that young women need to, the main thing holding them back is their relationship with their emotions.

Yes. There's all, think about all the things people say to women about their emotions. Like, oh, yeah, you're, well, I mean, let's just be real. They're like, you're on your period. Of course you're emotional and mean to people. And it's like we actually give ourselves like a seven-day pass to be an emotional wreck. Actually, my life changed when I stopped doing that.

So it's like the first thing I think is just because you're a woman doesn't mean you cannot regulate your emotions just like anybody else. Is it harder? Yes, but then that means you have the chance to get more skills. You will be more skilled than the men at regulating your emotions if you learn how to regulate them.

And so for me, I think like learning to manage your emotions and having a good relationship with them, not allowing them to dictate your life and how you act and become excuses for why you act out in certain ways. Like a lot of women, you see all the memes and things out there. It's like, yeah, be crazy. It's like, yeah, funny, but also like not funny.

Like for me to achieve the goals that I have in life and in business, I can't have my employees be like, yeah, you're acting crazy today.

And nobody wants an unstable leader. So like for women to lead, it's very hard to be unstable. Where does instability come from? Inability to regulate your emotions. And so I think that's the first thing is don't listen to what people say about how you just can't because of your hormones and because of this. You can't. It just will be harder.

It is harder. for some people than others. It might be harder for women. It might be harder when you have less resources. It is not impossible. You have less skills. I think it is harder the less skilled you are. Some people are incredibly skilled and they've learned it from, they had great friends growing up, they had great mothers, they had great fathers to look up to.

Some people didn't and some of those people, it's harder, it's more exhausting. But what would you rather have? A life that is perpetually capped by the fact that you can't regulate your emotions or a year of learning that is exhausting but at the end of it,
