Checkable’s Post

Many high achievers are plagued with the habit of comparing themselves to their ideal selves, leading to constant negative thoughts, and rarely feeling like they're hitting their stride. Being negative is easy and the majority of us talk to ourselves in a negative tone and manner. We nitpick all of the things we shouldn't have done, should have done better and the way we talk to ourselves when we look in a mirror is even worse ,especially as we age all of these thoughts make you feel terrible. Today, I am honored to be a panelist for the CHPA 'Confidence to be My Best Self' event along with six other talented and successful women. As a panelist I hope to share the positive impact of frequent reflection on my successes as a woman who worked in corporate America and as the founder of Checkable. After deep reflection and coaching I realized I was constantly feelinging like I wasn't living up to the woman I wanted to be in my mind, I was comparing myself to who I wanted to be and it was dragging me down. 9 months after starting Checkable I wrote down everything I had accomplished personally and professionally, I started to remember new accomplishments as the days passed since doing the exercise, I would smile and feel proud of the woman who went for it. This is how we should feel about ourselves and our bodies, this shifts your mindset and puts in you a state of positivity and confidence. Growing and getting confidence back starts with this exercise and continues with daily relection on wins and appreciation/recognition for the losses and what they taught you for your future self.

It was a memorable and fun event, and thanks so much to UC Berkeley Haas Master of Financial Engineering Program and Fiona Taft, SHRM-CP for inviting me as one of the panelists to talk to the current female MFE students. I was inspired by the stories of my fellow panelists! The MFE program is consistently ranked the top 3 in the US. Some takeaways from the talk: - Build your network of allies, mentors, and sponsors now. Communicate clearly what you want to do. - Be confident you already know a lot (probably above everyone else in the room) and go for the opportunity given. - How to advocate yourself if you are the only woman in the room? Have allies (male and female) and don’t let anyone else take away your idea or credit. - How to tackle imposter syndrome (which only concerns competence and not self-esteem)? Learn how to externalize losses and internalize wins (i.e. don’t blame yourself for the bad that happened)! Be aware of perfectionism and burnout. - Take good care of your health when you are young. Have quiet times and engage in joyful activities. - Spread your financial knowledge and help improve financial literacy. Talk money more! #womeninfinance #womeninquants #careeradvice

Climbing the corporate ladder is still a challenge for women in Michigan public companies, but the rungs are getting closer together as more women achieve senior positions. Check out Inforum's 2024 Michigan Women’s Leadership Report, produced in collaboration with the Mike Ilitch School of Business at Wayne State University, to find out who’s new on corporate boards and trends in executive leadership. https://buff.ly/3uMt9r3

From 1972, when Katharine Graham of the Washington Post Co. became the first woman Fortune 500 CEO, it took until 2023 – more than 50 years – for women to reach an all-time high of 10.6% of Fortune 500 CEOs. That dismal statistic highlights the need for more women in all levels of leadership positions. Let’s not take 50 more years to reach the next 10%! How can you help? SUPPORT 2024 WLC and FWLE!
