YOU DESERVE TO BE CELEBRATED!
Repost from one of our fabulous instructors, @lisapickell, with the reminder: YOU DESERVE TO BE CELEBRATED! "Here’s to the AMAZING Female Founders & Funders that I’ve met this past year. You inspire me. Always celebrate your wins. You worked hard for them. You’re not bragging or being boastful. You’re helping others realize that it’s possible." CHEERS. 🎉
How Playing Poker Is Good For Women | On equal pay, Erin says,
“Do you want to get better at negotiating? Play poker. Do you want to get better at risk-taking? Play poker. Do you want to have a new framework for problem-solving and decision-making? Play poker. All of these things are so critical for being able to advocate for yourself, + to define your position in your workplace and relationships.” Diving into the ways playing poker helps women build skills to feel powerful in the workforce, build their confidence, + get comfortable with taking risks.
“We’re here to get woman an equal seat the table.”
We believe that can start at the poker table. ICYMI: @Erin.Lydon376 joined @power_to_our_women on their latest episode in their EmpowerHERSeries. Find the youtube link in their bio: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f1WhKZrR81U
