Since leaving DB, I have participated in many conferences and swish events that other financial institutions have held for their women's groups.

Of course the female experience is different from those of our male peers - just like every woman's story is different from their fellow females.

The smartest and most successful people I know are the people who are constantly evolving, always learning. It does not end with school.

From Warren Buffett to Jamie Dimon to Paul Tudor Jones, no one has cracked the code and put a critical mass of top women in the C-Suite or near it.

I would love to have a career that's governed by the material; I always want to be part of stories that I feel are worthwhile.

Love, it has been said, flows downward. The love of parents for their children has always been far more powerful than that of children for their parents; and who among the sons of men ever loved God with a thousandth part of the love which God has manifested to us?

Nothing I have ever done has made my future worse, my parents' life worse, my daughter's life worse.

I don't even call them fans. I don't like that. They're literally just a part of my life; they're a part of my family. I don't think of them as on a lower level than me. I don't think I'm anything but equal to all of them. So yeah, they're basically all of my siblings.
