The biggest takeaway I take from this retreat [Maryam hosted] is how similar everybody’s story is here. Female leaders from across all domains and sectors are facing the same challenges. I can get an insight from Maryam from government that applies completely to myself in corporate Canada.

What I take away from today’s retreat [Maryam hosted] is a lot about confidence. To have the confidence to try and push myself to try new things, and also to have the wisdom when to say no.
