A place for women to discuss the challenges faced by them, when they want to restart their career.
Ladies, what do you do when you get called out for being authoritative and bossy if you are putting forth rationale arguments?

I had a long chat with my boss who said people have said, I’m authoritative and stand my ground. He asked me to retrospect and fix this. And I’m thinking what’s wrong with that, why’d they hire someone to think and lead when they want me to do the opposite. Eventually what I realised was that the problem was that I was a she being all this and not a he. If I wasn’t a woman in management they’d actually have listened and not dissed. And they kicked me out of the project I was anchoring and had worked quite a few midnights on.

Popular opinionI've noticed my close group of friends can get quite competitive with each other at times. They'll one-up each other's accomplishments, make snide remarks about jobs/appearances, and there's an underlying tension of trying to be the "best" friend. Is this typical competitive behavior that happens in female friendships or is this level of passive aggression a red flag?
Top discussionBu ara belirsizlikle seni ne zorluyor? sımsıkı yapıştığımız belirsizlikler,sorunlar,kutlamalar biliyorum ki kafanı yoruyor,huzursuz ediyor.Haklısın. Belirsizlik içimizi tedirgin eden bir durum. O anlara saklı bir hediye var o da özgürleşme seçimi. Özgürleşme kapısı; değişimle ve belirsizlikle barışmak. Hayatın kendisi değişim. Bebek,ergen,genç, yetişkin, geçişlerimizde hep değiştik.Her şey belirsizdi ve bak şimdi burdayız. Çok korktuğumuz sınavlar da bitti, okullar da, evlere de çıktık, ilk maaşımızı da aldık, bunlar gibi bir çok örnekte hep belirsizlikle başbaşaydık. Kalbinde kaygı ve belirsizlik yoğunsa “Özgürleşmeye Niyet et” ve tekrar et ki “Bu günler gibi bir sürü deneyimden geçtim ve hepsinden özgürleştim,şu anda da bunun içindeki özgürleşmeyi görmeye niyet ediyorum. büyük değişimler içinde özgürleşmeyi fark etsen kim olurdun? #özgürleşmek #motivasyon #yaşamkoçluğu #farkındalık
