Inspiring Hope through Mentorship (Feat. Janet T. Phan)

Janet T. Phan is a Senior Technical Project Manager at Amazon and the founder of Thriving Elements, an organization that mentors underrepresented girls in STEM. Her new book, Boldly You, is a story about discovering what you're capable of when you show up for yourself. 

But what does that mean? Janet explains, if there's something that you believe is the right thing to do, you must follow your instinct. It isn’t easy, especially when you’re in a vulnerable place. You need the courage to believe in yourself, act on those beliefs, and not behave based on the expectations of others.

Janet founded Thriving Elements to help instill confidence in young girls and give them opportunities to thrive. In this episode of Motivational Mondays, she reflects back and shares that where she is now is because of the mentors in her life.

This week you’ll learn about how Janet managed navigating life between two cultures, why she wrote, Boldly You, and more about her mentorship program.
