"I think it's a false belief that so many women, I would imagine men, too, but I deal with women. But it's the false belief of that whole thing you teach so well, imposter syndrome, that they're not valuable enough. That kind of money, they don't attract, they don't deserve it. There's some major disconnect between who they're called to be and believing it." - Sharon Restrepo.
