LIFE LESSONS

Say yes — often. “One day you'll learn to say no. But you discover what you don't want to do by doing it. Open your eyes and give everything a go.”

Look who is at the table. “Always look at who is making decisions, especially with social issues and areas of change. Change doesn't always come from white men in suits.”

Know ‘why’. “Don't let money be your driver. If you have the privilege to work for reasons other than money, then know your why. Be clear about why you work, and reassess it often. If your job isn't fulfilling the why, then change the position, not the other way around.”
