Takeaways from Envato’s International Women’s Day Panel & Partnership With Equidi 

“Everyone – more so women, but men as well – will go through periods where, due to unavoidable circumstances, you’ll have to go through a harvesting phase,” said Briany. “This could be due to major life events, illness, deaths, having kids, or carer responsibilities. Looking back at my career, I’ve had high and low growth phases – and that’s okay. It’s about taking the skills and experience you’ve learned to date and being comfortable putting that into practice without constantly striving for the next accomplishment. It was a constructive mindset shift for me to be okay with that. You don’t always have to be on this constant growth trajectory and actively pursuing things – it’s okay to give yourself that time, space, and permission to stop and appreciate how far you’ve come.”
