They say perception is reality—but what happens when that perception works against you? Join SIM Women SC for a powerful and candid conversation led by an experienced Executive Coach who will unpack the subtle (and not-so-subtle) ways women are labeled in professional settings. Together, we’ll explore practical strategies to navigate bias, reshape impressions, and reclaim authenticity without apology.  Whether you’ve ever been called “too direct,” “emotional,” or “difficult,” this session will help you turn those labels into leadership strengths. Come ready to laugh, reflect, and leave with actionable insights to enhance your influence and confidence at work.

Speaker: Josh Labovitz, Executive Coach
