And that actually, in the beginning, when I thought that I had to sacrifice being a good wife and, you know, caring about what I looked like, it made me worse at business because I was suppressing these other pieces of my life that I actually do value. And I said, why am I suppressing those things? And I said, well, because I'm afraid that men are going to judge me for it.

Well then, screw it, let them judge me, and I do get judged all the time, and I'm okay with it. It's okay if people don't understand me. It's okay if they don't understand my actual capabilities, what I actually do, if they think I am all these things. I know who I am. And on a daily basis, I'm with myself at the end of the day.

And so as long as I'm living my life in accordance with the things I value, I think that most women just believe that they have to fit in a box of one of these things. You're either this girl, this girl, this girl, or this girl that fits in these boxes that you see on social media. It's like, you could be a little bit of all those things. It's like, who do you want to be?

And I think for me, I've learned I don't fit in a box and I think a lot of people think I'm one thing or another or they feel confused and that's okay.

So what?

So what?

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

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.

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.
