Success is about perspective

The amazing women I met and interviewed during Black History Month have inspired me to begin working on my second blog series: "Our Views on Success".

Recently, I asked a friend if I could feature her and her reply "...but, I'm not successful" astonished me. Considering that she's partner in a law firm, a great mother, involved in her community and a fantastic role model, I found her self-deprecating views her success were surprising. It got me thinking about my own success, how I view it, how others measure it and if success is valued differently for black Canadian women.

Let's explore this together, get the conversation started and encourage positive change. Are you or a friend a potential interviewee? Connect with me. Want to find out when new posts are published? Subscribe.
