Redefining bravery: facing your fears at work
Content warning: This talk discusses cancer
Whether we want to admit it or not, a lot of things can happen that scare us. But it was Louisa's breast cancer diagnosis during the pandemic that made her feel fear on a scale she had never before comprehended. In this talk, Louisa will talk about her cancer diagnosis at the age of 34 and examine the role fear plays in our lives and especially our careers. Living with fear can be horrible, but it can be useful. Knowing when to listen and when to tell fear to shut up is a super power.
