Inspiring Young Girls to Think Big and Build Without Limits

program for young girls. You probably have something similar in Australia, like Pathfinders in Canada, but they go through these progressions as young girls learning these skills, and it's very diverse. So I teach a lot of the bot building, thinking like a programmer, those types of badges. But one thing that inspires me is watching these young people do the things that it took me a very long time to do very easily. And how, like, I feel like I'm pretty, like, cutting edge. I've, I've thought outside the box. I remember at Amazon Alexa, I wanted to build mindfulness skills and everyone on my team— granted, I was the only woman and the only Latina, the only mom— but they were like, who needs mindfulness? Like, that's a silly thing. And this was in 2013, so nobody really knew what was silly, but they definitely had in their mind predefined a box that you should play in. And I was like, well, I don't want to build a workout app or a recipe app. I want to build a mindfulness app.
