discussion about As a young woman, self-awareness has been crucial in understanding my values and aligning my goals. For example, after reflecting on my experiences and passions, I realized that I deeply value social impact and behavioral analysis. This insight led me to pursue a career in behavioral analysis rather than a more conventional path in business or any other pathway. My awareness of what truly matters to me, making a difference and continually learning, has shaped my goals, such as seeking out roles that offer hands-on experience in my current job at an elementary school and opportunities for skill development. This alignment ensures that my daily efforts and long-term aspirations resonate with my core values, making my journey more meaningful and fulfilling. Self-awareness is imperative as it not only can cause personal growth but can also help you increase productivity, which in turn helps you achieve goals and can help you understand the value of diversity (De Janasz et al., 2022)
