If you're a woman of color with career ambitions in a male-dominated industry, you intimately know the resource everyone says you're short on: power. But you still govern your own choices, especially when the system is built to make you feel like you don't have any. So how do we put this power into action? I call it the Three Votes Framework. 

When I was an 18-year-old high school senior and a chronically stressed school newspaper editor, I decided that "the ask" should not be a male-only privilege.

I was an introvert, but I was also an advocate.

My client Sarah-Neel’s results:
