Do you feel like you’re staring up at a glass ceiling, throwing rocks up at the sky? Does it feel impossible to be perceived as both likeable AND competent? Does it feel like you’re following someone else’s blueprint for what success looks like?

Riya Kuo was a corporate lawyer in tech for over a decade (Wilson Sonsini to Microsoft to a 2-year sabbatical wandering the world to Sony Pictures). Now she’s an executive coach to unconventional leaders –- who survive and thrive in environments not created or designed for them. Riya will be discussing the “double bind” of being nice vs. being competent, how to advocate for yourself with more ease, and what it means to succeed on your own terms.

We all learn and grow by witnessing each other’s struggles, and by supporting each other. During this event, you’ll have the opportunity to be coached live by Riya, and we’ll also break out into small groups to connect with each other. What are some specific challenges you’re currently facing, that you’d like to be coached around?  Bring them to the event and commit to being fully present for yourself as well as for your sisters.We will co-create a safe container to explore and uplift each other within.
