"Emotional intelligence is key in both career and life. Know who you are today and what has happened in your life to get you here. Know where you want to grow to in the future, and what it will take to get there. This is the path to pursue. Good luck!"
"You went to Northwestern, you'll be alright."
"There is no fixed path to your career!"

Thank you Megan, Tommy, and Janelle for joining us and thank you Didi for being a great student moderator!
