Is your daughter a finder, minder, or grinder?

this is obviously probably industry specific, but i find that very few women are finders. the most successful ones are minders from what i've seen. lots of them become moms and go the grinder route but part time these days. however, i mainly deal with male dominated industries (although I assume most probably still are). i don't think being a woman is inherently limiting, but the real world implications of having a family certainly are unfortunately. being a lawyer can be very consuming of your time.

Me either. As a girl dad, I'm going out of my way to give her all of the advantages I think she'll need. She goes to a great camp in New England every summer where she meets tons of people from all over the country, plays golf, is a predator of an offshore fisherman, etc.

She's going to have an uphill battle in business, and neither my wife nor I have jobs, and my parents didn't either, so if she's going to make it on her own, she'll need a leg up.

But you would agree that the barrier to female entry into the marketplace is lower than it was 20 years ago, right?
