You were meant to take up space. Especially in the legal industry, which is typically male dominated, it’s more important now than ever before to stand up for yourself, your beliefs, and let your true self shine -- whether that’s with clients, in the courtroom, or at home.
My guest this week is Nequosha Anderson, who is a business and intellectual property attorney. For the last eight years, she has assisted primarily women creatives who want to legally protect their income producing ideas. She safeguards businesses and brand assets to ensure the intellectual property is secure and not stolen allowing the business owner to creatively operate in their genius and not be robbed of what’s rightfully theirs.
We talk about:
- How to find your own voice
- The societal change women are experiencing thanks to those who stand up for change and equality
- Why you need to show up and take up the space
- How to learn to know yourself to trust yourself and your voice
- Why representation of women and people of color matter in the legal industry
