Baby’s First Work Trip

When you’re a woman traveling alone on business, make sure you book a hotel room near the elevator.

Always put the chain lock on the door, even if you’re only stopping in to change your outfit.  

Don’t talk to strangers at the hotel bar; what are you even doing at the hotel bar in the first place?

These were the nuggets of advice from my dear mom, a former sales superstar who spent years jetting around the world networking with clients and colleagues. She taught me everything I know about staying safe out in the world while pursuing success, and also how to accessorize.
