The conference is designed to ignite, inspire, empower, and uplift students \u2013 many of whom face significant adversity, such as overcoming challenges of poverty, domestic and gang-related violence, and personal hardships. During the conference, our local community came together to share stories of triumph, reflecting on the many achievements of women throughout history and providing a blueprint for not only achieving goals, but lifting up others along the way. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.sdcity.edu\/students\/services\/cwr\/index.aspx\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">City Women Rock<\/a> focuses on the following key strategies to empower women to achieve their goals:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns is-style-default is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-1 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<ul class=\"is-style-default wp-block-list\"><li>Gratitude practice<\/li><li>Journaling<\/li><li>Prioritizing self-care<\/li><\/ul>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<ul class=\"is-style-default wp-block-list\"><li>Voicing your dreams<\/li><li>Goal setting<\/li><li>Positive affirmations\u00a0<\/li><\/ul>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<ul class=\"is-style-default wp-block-list\"><li>Asking for help\u00a0<\/li><li>Transforming fear into fuel\u00a0<\/li><li>Overcoming self-limiting beliefs\u00a0<\/li><\/ul>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"mt-sm\">These strategies truly resonate with me, and I was honored to speak at the conference to share more on this and my personal story of overcoming an eating disorder, addiction, and low self-esteem in my early adolescence years. These challenges ultimately led me to a 15-year path of healing, transformation, and growth. I can proudly say that I came out on the other side with unshakeable self-love and inner confidence. Implementing positive changes has resulted in becoming the woman, mother, daughter, sister, friend, and leader that I always wanted to be.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"\">I\u2019m so thankful for my local community and the opportunities that organizations like City Women Rock provide to women to allow us to be our best selves. I\u2019m also grateful for my Vaulter community and our Women in Technology ERG. This ERG brings together both women and allies to elevate and advance gender equality in technology and celebrate the inspiring women of Commvault who are driving our innovation and growth every day.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"\">We all have personal stories to share of strength, stability and overcoming adversity. As we continue to celebrate women throughout March, let\u2019s remember the importance of empowering ourselves and others to uplift, inspire and encourage each other to achieve GREATNESS.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"\">To learn more about Commvault\u2019s culture and ERGs, <a href=\"https:\/\/careers.commvault.com\/us\/en\/care\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">click here<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Find out more about Sara Lehmer&#8217;s efforts to support women in technology both at Commvault and in her local community.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":85,"featured_media":70998,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_custom_css":"","_custom_js_footer":"","_page_background_color":"","_remove_from_search":false,"_dark_mode":false,"_light_footer_mode":false,"_sidebar_form":{"id":"","name":"","cta":"","redirect":""},"_alert_notification_bar":{"show":true,"bg_color":"","content":"","call_to_action_label":"","call_to_action_link":""},"_footer_cta":{"show":false,"title":"","subtitle":"","cta_text":"","cta_link":"","background":{"id":0,"url":""}},"_cmv_customer_logo":{"id":0,"url":""},"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"i18n_hreflangs":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[1054],"tags":[],"cmv_author":[1100],"class_list":{"0":"post-70995","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-women-in-tech","8":"cmv_author-sara-lehmer","9":"entry"},"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v23.0 (Yoast SEO v23.0) -
