Part 3: Learnings from The Brave Enough Conference for Women

Everywhere you see success, there was fear first.

~~Dr. Una~~

Dr. Una, of EntreMD, is one of my favorite physician entrepreneurs and I was stoked to see her on the speaker list for Brave Enough 2022.

AND

I GOT TO MEET HER IN PERSON!! 

And she’s all that I knew she was and more – encouraging, motivating and invigorating.

One of my key reminders from Dr. Una’s talk is highly pertinent to my clients looking to make a career transition to the biopharma industry. 

Where you see success, there was fear first.

YES!!!

100%

Your physician colleagues that have succeeded in attaining their first role in biopharma had fear. They were likely fearful that their resume was not perfect. They were likely fearful that they may not interview successfully. They were probably fearful that they did not know the salary to ask for or how to negotiate their package. 

AND

they succeeded! 

Despite fear.

In making a successful transition, not only in your career, you must be willing to accept fear. 

Recognize, the other choice is to let fear stop you from trying. 

Let this be a reminder that those who have succeeded in making their career transition to biotech/pharma had the same fears you are facing. Take the fear, acknowledge it, embrace it and move forward through the fear to success.
