As a female founder in the tech industry, I set out beat the odds inherently stacked against me. But at times, finding the motivation and confidence to persevere was challenging.
My network has helped me advance my #career, meet sponsors, find investors, connect with clients, and more. But during my first career transition, my perspective on networking shifted quite drastically.
I had been looking at networking wrong. I had been networking for my career my entire life, but I needed to be #networking for me.
Building a supportive network was crucial as a woman #entrepreneur in the tech industry. A big career shift can be stressful. It can be scary. But a good network can be vital in supporting you emotionally.

Many people who claim to be experts in the field have never deployed a solution in the wild. AI is a rapidly evolving field that many pretend to understand much more than they do. Don’t let self-doubt hold you back from asking questions, being curious, and testing the market to see if your vision has pull from customers. You never know till you try, and you don’t have to quit your day job to experiment.

An investment in Trust & Safety is an investment in user and revenue growth and brand reputation. Not investing in Trust & Safety can lead to severe negative consequences to your community, revenue opportunities, and brand reputation.
Similar to the world of Cybersecurity, everyone who designs, builds, operates, or markets your platform has an impact on user safety and needs to feel that responsibility. Yet, not everyone can be expected to be an expert on what user safety means. So how do you spread the knowledge and make sure people have the information they need?
