102: Defining your own identity and working to your strengths with Mae Yip and Samantha Hornsby Women Who Lead

Oooooo I just love this episode so much. Mae and Sam are both founders of Eric, but what I love about them is that they were friends first. That's right, actual best friends building a business together.

Mae and Sam are both quite different people and I love that they truly use their differences as their true advantage. And together they solving a big challenge by supporting young people to embark on more fulfilling and aligned careers.

If you want to learn more about defining your own path and identity as a woman in the workplace, this episode is 100% for you. We cover things like:


The fact that our personality is often constructed in reaction to the environment we find ourselves in
Defining your own path and identity as a woman in the workplace Gaslighting in careers and what we can do about it now as adults
The importance of getting good at failure and building the habit of failing with flair

There's also a brilliant activity, baked in the middle of our conversation somewhere, but one that you won't want to miss. It is the single thing that helped me build my self esteem. Look out for it!
