Young women aiming for success should stop viewing themselves as women and start viewing themselves as workers who work hard without complaint.

“don't think of yourself as a woman just think of yourself as a worker and do it a lot of it all the time without complaint”

Taking the risk of being bold and producing original work without seeking external endorsement is the only way to achieve something of true value.

“there's an element of tremendous daring to say I I don't have to have your endorsement or your money to sit down and write this.”

Sustained success in a career requires persistent hard work, dedication, and the ability to continue learning and improving one's craft.

“I definitely think a lot of it is the work. You know, putting in the work. It's really easy to just say, "Okay, I want to do this." But there's so much work behind it.”
