These are all snippets from me. Bite size blog pieces that are just thoughts I’ve been having. I hope you don’t mind they aren’t as long anymore. I’ll write a longer one, or a series in the future, about the way I’ve realized I’ve changed. Here’s a little preview.
I’ve been noticing, as I walk into the professional sphere, how much of my behavior moves away from myself. For example, when I get a compliment to downplay it or move it to the team. I don’t puff myself up and I think it’s very much a gendered thing. We aren’t supposed to be vain, we’re supposed to be team players and celebrate the collective. Unlike other people who just let fame and praise go to their head.
