152. Defying Expectations: Advice & Wisdom from Kristine Cherek Inspired by 'Tread Loudly' (Part 2)

Today we continue our conversation with Kristine Cherek to discuss her book Tread Loudly. In addition to being an author, Kristine is an attorney, executive, professor and philanthropist. This is Part 2 of 2 and we will continue 'going for it like Elle Woods" by discussing key data & research findings, and Kristine offers advice for younger generations, plus what she’d tell her 20 something self. Be sure to listen to both parts of our interview.

Here are the topics we covered in the series: Work friends and their importance· Having it all (not!) and Perfectionism. Beliefs. Elle Woods. Data (The real issue: normalized gender bias). Quitting is not failure.

Here are the three takeaways:

1. We can’t have it all and trying to be perfect robs us of our happiness. Others that we think ‘have it all’ really don’t.

2. We can begin to change our lives by changing a few beliefs within ourselves. Be determined. Be ambitious. Believe in yourself and take chances, just like Elle Woods did!

3. Quitting is not failure but can be the only way to achieve success in the long term.
