We Can Do Hard Things
Women at Work & The Episode That Wasn’t with Sarah Spain (Best Of)

I just I think that's as big a part of it is understanding once you get a certain amount of power, not to just sit in it and be happy that you made it. Oh, I get to be the one example of a woman who's thriving in a male dominated industry. No, no, no. You get to now pay back all of the good luck and fortune that you had by getting to where you are. Damn.

Cause that's a real thing. I want to say this to you guys, because this is extremely like this podcast means so much to me, not for maybe the same reasons as everyone else, but because I am blessed with great mental health. I have very secure relationships. I moved through the world taking credit for so many things that I had nothing to do with.

Because I didn't understand the challenges that other people had. And in fact, a lot of times I judged them because I'm super outgoing. I'm going to show up anywhere, talk to anyone. And I just thought, why are people like that? And because I love you guys so much, instead of judging the pathologies that I used to find annoying, um, I'm now empathetic towards them.

And I realized that understanding them makes me so much better of a person and so much more of an add to any situation I'm in because instead of thinking, well, I'm right. And the way I do things is right. And everyone else is wrong. It's like, no, no, no. The way I do things gets one result. And if I were any of these other different people, the result would be different.

And that is magical and necessary. And the way you guys talk on this podcast just proves that over and over again, because the ways you come at it is all different. And if I didn't listen, even to the ones that I'll like click and be like, I don't know about this one. And by the end, I'll be like, fuck, yes. How did I never think about this before?

It's necessary, though, to see the things that you took credit for and instead say, how blessed was I that I didn't fight for that, that I just got that. And then now I have to use it.

I'm not sending someone who's already strapped with racism and disability prejudice or anything else to the front lines and expecting them to do it. They've got all this other shit that people are throwing at them. So I can take it.

If you're someone who's going to be in a situation where you go into work every day and you deal with these awful things, how are you making sure that there are outlets to talk about it so that you're not just digesting and keeping it in and being miserable all the time?
