Quotes

“I think women, even more so, often feel like they need to have 100% of what they think they need before making a leap. But I believe that even if you’re only halfway there, with the right support, you’ll make it because you’ll be able to learn over and over.” (20:17 | Amber Powers)

“It was the day-to-day where I just thought, ‘This doesn’t excite me anymore.’ I was going to work to be with the people, and I had this opportunity to go do something that seemed exciting to me, and I just couldn’t shake it.” (22:01 | Amber Powers)

“Nobody has it figured out. I got to tell you, that really resonates. I say that to myself a lot. Nobody has it figured out. You can't know all the things, right? But you are strong at something. You are good at something, right? So showcase that. and have those conversations with people. And I think all around it'll just build you up.” (34:51 | Amber Powers)

“If you have something you’re interested in, follow that voice. Don’t follow the voice that makes you hesitate. Follow the voice, pursue it, ask questions, talk to people. And also, you do not have to be 100% ready to make the move.” (49:13 | Amber Powers)
