My advice to Lady Savants is to â&#x20AC;&#x153;pay it forwardâ&#x20AC;?. When you receive a helpful introduction, make one. It doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t have to be back to that same person but try to pass on ideas and business tips and referrals as much as possible. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s good Karma and it all works out in the end.

This sounds silly I know, but learn how to take a compliment graciously. There is nothing more unattractive when you brush off a compliment or words of praise by devaluing it or putting yourself down. As women, we tend to make excuses for our successes, appearance (you know that good hair day you are having), or even our clothing choices. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s as simple as saying â&#x20AC;&#x153;thank you.â&#x20AC;? Own your talent, intelligence, strength or style. We all work hard in our personal and our professional lives. So let it shine!

Many people, especially busy women, push through everyday on an â&#x20AC;&#x153;empty tankâ&#x20AC;?, which ends up making it extra harder to undo the damage thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s already been done.
