WIN Woman Spotlight: LYDIA FRANK
Lydia Frank
VP CONTENT STRATEGY, PAYSCALE
Three adjectives to describe you: Driven, empathetic, hopeful.
Biggest loss: I've had moments where I've lost confidence in myself - where I've let the overwhelming task of making the world more equitable overwhelm me - but I always come out the other side with a renewed commitment because the fight is worth it and I'm not in it alone.
Biggest win: The biggest win is always paying it forward. What is the point of power and privilege if you don't use it to lift someone else up who is facing more barriers than you? We each have a responsibility to draw a map once we've forged a path.
Words to live by: You don't need anyone's permission to fight for what's right.
Fantasy dinner date: My husband cooking me dinner. He happens to be a chef, so that helps. He also loves to cook, so this dinner date happens a lot.
If I weren’t doing this I would be A rock star. I love music and to sing. In another life, maybe that would have been my path, but I'm pretty happy with the one I'm on.
Best negotiation tip: Always know your worth in the market. Data-driven pay discussions are much more likely to go your way.
Favorite self-care ritual: Reading - in bed, on a beach, on the bus. It doesn't matter as long as I have some time to immerse myself in another world for a bit. I often need a break from the one we're in.
