"Don't worry about being the only woman in the room… I finally learned that it just doesn't matter. If people care what you have to say, they don't care if you're a woman or a man. Just don't let it bother you; don't let it get to you. Keep your confidence. Somebody's listening to what you have to say. It might not seem like it, but usually somebody's listening."
