This has also fuelled her genuine commitment to support diverse talent entering the legal profession and her strong leadership and communication skills.Bianca describes her experiences in the legal profession and explains how she has been able to  build her confidence, particularly in the workplace, to speak up and stand up for herself and others when needed. She helpfully explains that in her experience, speaking up, even when difficult, has never really lead anyone to telling her to "leave the room". Anyone finding it difficult to stand in their truth, should listen to this podcast, as I learned, not standing in your truth or speaking up for yourself could be a worst betrayal to yourself and your self-worth. Support the show
