Self-empowerment paves the way to speak up when others speak over you, to assert yourself when denied a voice.

Selina's approach isn't about dominance, but connection. Her strategies ensure her counterparts feel respected, not attacked. As we delve into confronting workplace injustices, Selina emphasizes the transformational potential within these challenges. Each encounter is a chance for personal growth, fortifying our resilience and strengthening us. We talk about what's in our circle of influence that can make us potent leaders, amplifying the significance we find in our work. We all have the power within us to transcend existing narratives. 

Our Key Take Aways:

  • Navigating Male-Dominated Environments: In a world of loud voices, your courage to speak up can reshape the narrative.
  • Self-Expression and Empowerment: There's a  power in sharing your truth. Authentic self-expression is the key that unlocks your empowerment.
  • Transitioning from Corporate to Startup: Stepping from the familiar into the unknown takes strength. Embrace change as the catalyst for your growth.
  • Empathy as a Leadership Tool: True leadership isn't about dominance; it's about empathy. Listen to understand, not to respond.
  • Self-Worth Over External Validation: Your value comes from within. Don't seek approval from titles or norms.
  • Creating Meaningful Relationships: Meaning at work stems from genuine connections. When we relate with authenticity, our workplace transforms us and others. Personal growth and development can transform the meaning and fulfillment that we experience at work.
