TAKEAWAYS

  1. You deserve a raise & promotion if you've been at your job for several years. Ask for it.
  • There are lots of opportunities out there and you deserve to be treated well everywhere you go. Your job does not have to be terrible for you to leave.
  • You don't have to live off your craft. Day jobs or side gigs that generate consistent income are great.
  • Not all POC face the same kind of discrimination. We need to learn from and support one another.
  • Working moms often feel guilty. If that's you, remember that you're doing your best and give yourself some grace
  • Career milestones are great but will not make you happy. Find happiness outside of work.
