This week on Scilence, my guest started her own technology business because of motherhood. She firmly believes that working 9-5 was never designed for a family. As a result, she is passionate about helping and supporting other women.
Working women have hidden themselves for too long and its time for them to step into their stories. Often, as women we are dealing with the negative self-talk which tries to keep them small- but this does not serve an entrepreneur. My guest has spent years building her business, and having to keep her levels of self-belief high, especially during times when friends and family worried about her.
She now sees the importance of speaking up - not just for yourselves, but to pave the way for women following in your footsteps. But trailblazing, does not have to be a lonely path. Often alpha females struggle to let go and ask for help. It requires trusting in others and accepting what happens.
Despite this, gender roles are also changing. Never has there been more support for women from men, especially at a time when women have never been more willing to work.
