Valuing Your Contribution: She's Simply Amazing Podcast
I recently had the opportunity to chat with Carrie Brinton about women's contributions. Whether in our homes or in the workplace, it's easy to downplay or diminish the labor we perform. I encourage all women to reclaim their value and understand that they matter just as much as anyone else.
