Fun story I have from working in the beer industry was the time I wore a hot pink suit on stage to present our strategic sales initiatives. Going full Barbie mode (although, this was pre-Barbie movie) in what is still a male-dominated industry felt powerful (and it also just tickled me to depart from the standard grey or blue blazer attire norms). 😊
