Assertiveness isn't aggression – it's leadership. In high-stakes meetings, channel your inner Viola. Stand tall, speak with conviction, and let your brilliance shine.
Black women, your boldness isn't a liability – it's your legacy. Infuse your pitch with that Viola magic: emotion, conviction, and authenticity. Your 'too much' is just enough to stand out.
