The vast array of fields in science and technology hold an amazing collection of fascinating areas of study and career paths. Women and men alike are drawn to these disciplines, but far too often the journey for women can include extra obstacles.\nThis book is filled with a collection of stories shared by women who have faced these situations. You will hear about their triumphs and challenges, as well as their vision for the future.\nThese authors represent a global community of women in a broad range of careers in STEM (Science Tech Engineering and Math). The intention of this book is to give a platform to lift the voices of these women. To motivate the women currently in STEM fields to take on leadership roles and support discussions around diversity, inclusion, and equity. To give women the courage to follow their dreams and reach for the big vision they have for themselves and others. To inform and support younger women to see a place for themselves in this enormous area of opportunities.\nThe members of this amazing international team of authors have all embraced courage in their own way and have felt compelled to share their journey here with you.
