Pros&Babes CEO Kinia Romanowska

“When you're when we're talking about emotional intelligence, the foundation is recognizing your emotions and understanding how they show up. More and more science is showing how important it is to acknowledge and feel our emotions. So because it's such a huge emotional transition for women, we need to talk about it we need to say like you're going to feel a lot of different, new, and terrifying emotions. All you need to remember is that you're not alone, just make space for those emotions to identify them.”
