Abstract
Women and men develop with equal, often outstanding, abilities in math and science. However, one of women’s advantages is that they also often have a developmental edge over men when it comes to verbal abilities. The result? When women hear the ubiquitous advice to “follow their passions,” they sometimes turn towards their undeniable strengths outside STEM. Some subjects—like STEM—take longer for women and men to master. This talk helps women recognize that it’s sometimes important to be patient with passion—don’t just follow your passions, broaden them!
