Saying YES to ambition. My guest this week is Claudia Reuter, Author of "Yes, You Can Do This!" , Podcast Creator & Host for "The 43 Percent", and a tech CEO. In the episode we get into:  Calling bullshit on structures that aren’t made to support mothers (Remember 85% of women become mothers! How’s that for equality 😡) Ambition and why we’ve no reason to be apologetic about it 🙄💥 How Claudia focuses on strengths to move toward a shared vision 👓 Why “Leaning In” is too binary 🔬 And More!
