Her superpower is that she doesn’t get anxious. SAY WHAT?! Envy washed over me when I heard this, followed by curiosity...and we dive in! 

Listen in to my conversation with Alexandria Price as we talk about:

• How she got over imposter syndrome 
• Why she doesn’t get anxious
• How to get coworkers to see you as more than your entry-level position 
• How two words got her to a salary she wanted 
• What you need to do when you’re in a negotiation 

And you know there is so much more!

Prior to the pandemic, Alexandria enjoyed traveling and trying out restaurants in the city, but now she is enrolled in an accelerated MBA Program. Now, most of her time outside of work is spent reading and researching, but when she does find some down time, she goes for a bike ride or picks up her skates and rolls out.
