"Women don't take enough risks. Men are just 'foot on the gas pedal.' We're not going to close the achievement gap until we close the ambition gap."
"So please ask yourself: What would I do if I weren't afraid? And then go do it."
"Being confident and believing in your own self-worth is necessary to achieving your potential."
