Let’s explore the profound impact fairy tales have had on our professional lives, especially as women in tech. Most of us have grown up with stories of women waiting for their Prince Charming or Knight in Shining Armor. While most of us have shed this mentality in our personal lives, its residual effects can still hold us back in our careers as we wait for the perfect boss, recruiter, mentor, or sponsor.

I delve into my own experience of waiting for a "professional prince charming" which led to a stagnating project and career slow down. As you listen reflect on your own career: are you waiting for someone to notice you, promote you, or solve your problems?

The key takeaway is that you are in control of your professional journey. Whether it’s setting boundaries, investing in yourself, or creating opportunities, it's up to you to stop waiting and start taking decisive action.
