Not only do the majority of senior women executives have sports in their background, they recognize that the behaviors and techniques learned through sports are critical to motivating teams and improving performance in a corporate environment.

Setbacks are just learning experiences.

Research shows that women at that mid level tend to get promoted based on performance, and men tend to get promoted based on potential.

It's not the winning that teaches you how to be resilient. It's the setback. It's the loss.

I've had a very full and lovely career so far, and I can't honestly say that I've ever really found myself in a man's world, struggling for an identity or trying to prove something.

I work in the most non-Communist job. I work for 'Martha Stewart Living.'

My career path is the best I could have hoped for, and that's thanks to independent wrestling and territories across the world.

Sometimes I get really down on myself for not having the exact career I want, but it's ok as long as you know what you want and you're going towards that. Accept it's going to be a different path than you thought in the first place.
