As a woman leader, I try to take every opportunity I can to do what my mentors did for me - engaging with young women and take them seriously.

When I think about work-life balance, I don't imagine it as a perfect day where I got to spend the exact right amount of time having an impact at work and snuggling with my kids at home. I never achieve that. But over the course of a month, or a quarter, or a year, I try to make time for the people and experiences I value.

My family immigrated from Korea when I was four years old, and when I started school, I didn't speak English. I remember that other kids would blame everything bad that happened in kindergarten on me - I spent a lot of time "in the corner" because I literally didn't have the words to explain that it wasn't me!

The world is more flexible than you might think.

My first thought in moments of darkness and doubt is, "Who can I call? Who can I share this with?" Connection and sharing saves me every time.

I always tell people, don't worry about the haters, you are not a jackass whisperer. You have to be enough. You have to be your own validation.

Women in business, women in employment anywhere face a very different set of challenges than their male counterparts.
