A question for all the women working (or otherwise engaged) in the tech space:

What has been the most challenging thing you had to face (and how did you overcome it)?

Very reassuring to hear that you don't need to give up one or the other 🙂

Learning how to balance becoming a mom with being an ambitious career woman  

I overcame it by realizing careers are long and windy, and are marathons not sprints, so I was ok to lean out and lean in at different times

I have found web3 a great place where I’m not afraid on asking questions and people are quite supportive. I haven’t had still a challenging experience but I would like to hear others.

Imposter syndrome. I think there are a lot of people good at sounding experienced/smart.

Turns out, you probably have more to offer than you think.

Second that with being extraverted and ‘bubbly’. I’ve had feedback of sounding too young.

Men tend to take pretty women less seriously

In it now. I can speak to the overcoming part. Allowing myself to just sit w/& actually feel the emotions- rage, grief, relief- process them & not internalize any of it. I’ve worked in male dominated industries for decades & not internalizing weak men wielding the patriarchy is the whole game.
