I’m a woman who spent 20 years in tech.
And for most of those years, I believed the formula was simple:
Work harder. Push further. Prove more.
That’s what got you promoted.
That’s what earned you respect.
That’s what made you indispensable.
So I hustled.
I performed.
I pushed past every signal my body gave me to slow down.
Until one day, I looked around and realized -
I wasn’t thriving. I was surviving.
I was chasing the next milestone
𝘪𝘯𝘴𝘵𝘦𝘢𝘥 of savoring the moment.
I was leading with force
𝘪𝘯𝘴𝘵𝘦𝘢𝘥 of creating real impact.
I was reacting from fear
𝘪𝘯𝘴𝘵𝘦𝘢𝘥 of acting from confidence.
And here’s what I see now, on the other side:
The women I work with are living the same pattern.
They’re accomplished but feel empty.
They’re exhausted but can’t stop.
They’re leading but feel invisible.
Because the old playbook is broken.
And yet, we keep following it -
thinking if we just work a little harder,
it’ll finally feel different.
It won’t.
So I’m doing something about it.
I’m bringing together a group of leaders who’ve walked this path.
Who’ve shattered glass ceilings.
Who’ve stood up for things bigger than themselves.
Who’ve discovered a different way to lead - and live.
🟢 Doris Daif: Former Nike Exec, Leader, Speaker
🟢 Sipra Roy Halteman Roy-Halteman: Director of Marketing at Radical Candor, Founder of The Shift Society
🟢 Jeremy Stockdale: CEO, Founder of YLead
🟢 Michelle McDaid: Tech Leader, Founder of The Leading Place
And yes, there’s a man on this panel.
Because if we want real change,
men need to be part of this conversation. Full stop.
This panel isn’t just another event.
It’s a mirror for the women who need to hear:
You’re not alone.
And there is another way.
RSVP. Show up. Share it.
This conversation is too important to stay quiet.
