Start small.
Hey there!
Let me start by introducing myself. I am a woman, wife and mother. Those three titles mean everything to me. They give me purpose, pride and determination to make a difference in the world. I did not begin my career as a confident woman, but over time I have challenged myself and worked hard to become a successful woman in business. I contribute my success to the people I have around me for support and guidance.
I am excited you are interested in the possibility of pursuing a STEM career. I hope you have someone to motivate and guide through your journey. You need to believe in yourself and don’t let anyone bring you down. There will be difficult times or challenges we face along the way, but don’t ever lose sight of what’s possible.
Setting goals are so important to succeeding. When setting those goals start small. We can’t take on the world all at once. Build a network of friends, teachers, peers that you can turn to for open and honest advice. Gravitate towards those with a positive attitude.
Don’t be afraid of failure, learn from it! You got this and don’t ever let anyone tell you otherwise. I wish you the best in everything you do.
