To be honest, I have always been a strict teacher at university, and my reputation in the business as an “iron lady” was consolidated right away. During teaching years, my main task was to motivate and guide students, give them the confidence to pursue their dreams. Therefore, I was always perceived as a strong and serious leader in business. I understand where this dissonance comes from in the image of a female entrepreneur. Looking at

venture company, a mother of three, we can say that you can do anything regardless of your gender.
