Recently, a colleague shared that while she was looking through job postings, she found the following verbiage on a job post that said, "Research shows that men apply to jobs when they meet an average of 60% of the criteria required, while women and other marginalized folx often apply only when they fit every single item. If you believe you could excel in this role, but don't meet every single criteria, please get in touch anyway."
She went on to say how reading this inspired her, not only to submit her application for the position but how it also inspired her to double down on her efforts to grow her business, which is currently inside 'hustle' status. Today, I want to talk to you about how you, too, may be self-limiting purely on the belief that you must meet all criteria required in order to be a successful business owner. And spoiler alert! You don't.
