i just realized that it might be more compelling for me to add that i worked in big pharma and biotech and can also tell you these perspectives 🙈 yup i was one of those people who added the auctioneer style disclaimers at the end of the drug commercials

She somehow feels like the space is too complex and she might not be seen or acknowledged for her work especially as a woman

You know what? facts. Every space has issues, I’m sure she’ll figure it out. This might seem small but it has been helpful, I’ll let her know

if it helps, biotech does have a lot more women than a lot of fields once u get to senior leadership it becomes tough again like any other industry but I have faith that she will find her calling 🙌
