What if the lines were moving?
Celine Heller’s project: the ins and outs
I decided to create the Empowhering blog to convey a positive, constructive message, aimed at boosting the self-confidence of every young woman who reads these interviews. I’m convinced that by reading a similar answer to the same question twice, five times, ten times, readers will be more convinced of the reality of the answer. And that they can apply the answer to themselves.
With a focus on the digital sector, because that’s the one I work in on a daily basis (working at Google), but without wishing to limit myself to it, I interview women and men who have a message to pass on to the younger generations, especially women.
Why do I think it’s necessary to send confidence-building messages to young women? Because in every discussion I have, I see that self-confidence, risk-taking and the balance between personal and professional life scare young women. My hope is that, through these interviews, these fears will be dispelled, leaving each of them free to express their potential.
Each interviewee agreed to answer the same questions, for around 45 minutes. The questions are not sent beforehand, to ensure maximum spontaneity and naturalness. Mostly to get the heart to speak.
The interviews will be published on non-commercial websites, for inspiration only.
