Episode 41: Self Leadership with Shivani Juneja

“If you are struggling, find that support, but you are responsible for looking for paths to improve, to make that improvement for yourself and go out there, build a little brand value. It's important for your career. Talk to more female leaders and focus on yourself. This might be a bit of a slow journey, but you maintain the pace and you look after yourself first.”
