Episode Synopsis
I wonder what comes up for you when you think about an ambitious woman? Is there an image or a set of feelings that you might attach to that word: Ambition?
I KNOW so many women find it really hard to admit that they are ambitious. The fear of coming across as ambitious feels really scary for us because our culture hasn’t allowed women to celebrate their desire for more.
