I and a lot of colleagues have been having issues with this one coworker who is of middle management level. She is not even approachable. Apparently this is not news to anyone but there is no change. Any advice on how to try to build a better partnership and feel like you have the confidence to professional and respectfully speak up?

Such a good attitude. Ask her to book a 15 minute one on one. To chat about her career path or ways to navigate the company or just
to get to know here. A lot of women have to wear armor to work and this is a good way to bring down her guard with you and create a direct connection.

Second establishing a 1:1 relationship with her. Also be genuine and ask her questions about what her challenges are and how you can best support her. It’s possible she has an atrocious attitude and is just a poor people leader, or it’s also possible she has a lot on her plate and could use additional support.

For the married and/engaged ladies, did you have any pre-wedding jitters? I recently got engaged (yay!) and I have felt for a very long time that my partner truly is my soulmate.

I feel guilty having these feelings when I couldn’t be more certain about the decision to marry him. Can anyone else relate?

Hello, All! I'm looking for recommendations on inspirational content for women leaders. I follow TEDWomen, many podcasts, and the Women's Conference among other sources.
