When you're a smart, capable woman who leads, you're most likely going to be one of the few or the only in the leadership suite -- especially so if you're a woman of color, an immigrant, on the LGBTQ spectrum or neurodivergent.
This inevitably means you often have to FIGHT to keep your seat at the table.
When should you put up a fight?
Why should you risk fighting?
What life skills outside of work will help you become a better fighter and therefore a winner?
But also, when should you walk away from the fight?
These are the questions we tackled on the interview with my friend and colleague Monique DeMaio, who tells her own riveting story of fighting and prevailing as the only woman in leadership.
You'll learn:

  • Monique's inspiring journey as an immigrant, including the challenges she faced and how she learned to advocate for herself from a young age
  • Her transition from the corporate world to entrepreneurship, and the pivotal moments that led her to start her own successful consulting business
  • The importance of confidence, assertiveness, and not letting others define your worth as a woman in the workplace
  • Monique's holistic approach to empowering women, including her upcoming "Circle of Possibilities" retreat focused on intentional living and fulfillment
  • Valuable tips and strategies for navigating office politics, managing work-life balance, and believing in your own potential
