Are We Rethinking Ambition? Reviewing Emma Grede’s Start With Yourself Feat. Niya Baxter

We've moved beyond the pink blazers, empowerment brunches, and girlboss era BUT what exactly has replaced them? As conversations around success, work-life balance, and personal fulfillment continue to evolve, it's worth asking whether our relationship with ambition has changed too.

On this episode of the podcast, host Chidinma is joined by Creator and Strategist, Niya Baxter to explore ambition, success, and the expectations we place on ourselves using Emma Grede's book Start With Yourself as a starting point. The two discuss the qualities that have contributed to Grede's success, the realities of building an ambitious life, and why her approach may not resonate with every woman, the importance of understanding one's personal values and deciding what to actually work toward.

The question isn't whether women are still ambitious, but rather if and how they are pursuing ambitions that genuinely belong to them. — Connect with "But What Do I Know?"
