Do you know your value? In this episode, I explore how we as women can better understand and assert our value, voice, and presence in various aspects of life. Drawing from personal experiences and expert insights, this episode delves into overcoming the societal challenges that have historically minimized women's voices, particularly those of women of color. We discuss communication styles, self-worth, and the importance of taking up space with confidence. Join me, as we sip on our favorite beverages and uncover strategies for truly owning our space.

TL;DR

This episode emphasizes self-awareness in communication styles, understanding how we receive information, recognizing our intrinsic value, and learning to effectively take up space.
