Vahbiz Cooper: 我来自一个重视价值观的印度家庭，在孟买和迪拜的成长经历塑造了我的价值观。我从小耳濡目染父母的勤劳和耐心，也学习到了尊重是相互的道理，即使面对长辈，我们也有权设定界限。我最初对成功的定义是物质享受，但在成长过程中，我的观念发生了转变，如今我认为成功在于对现状的满足，拥有一个和谐的家庭，以及内心的平静。我父母相爱的典范，体现在他们互相尊重、互相支持和共同度过时光上，这对我影响深远。在工作中，我曾经在平衡工作和生活方面遇到困难，但在现在的公司，我得到了团队和领导的大力支持，这让我能够更好地平衡工作和生活，并专注于我热爱的工作。我从之前的经历中吸取教训，学会了如何说不，并更好地维护自身权益。在职业发展中，我建议大家尝试和探索，找到适合自己的方向，并注重软技能和硬技能的共同发展。 在婚姻中，我和丈夫互相支持，互相弥补对方的不足。我们经历了异地恋的考验，最终走到一起并结婚。我并不相信一见钟情，我认为我对丈夫的爱是建立在日常点滴的相处和互相支持之上。在婚姻中，沟通和互相理解至关重要。我们需要学会原谅和放下，记住对方的好，并定期进行沟通和反思。即使在情绪波动时，也要保持冷静，理性沟通，避免误解和冲突。 Lisa Almond-Trimm: 通过与Vahbiz的对话，我了解到传统价值观在现代社会中依然具有重要的意义。Vahbiz的成长经历和职业发展，展现了传统文化与现代职业的完美结合。她对成功的定义转变，以及在工作和生活中取得的平衡，都值得我们学习和借鉴。她强调了家庭支持的重要性，以及在婚姻中沟通和互相理解的重要性。这些经验和建议，对年轻女性在职业发展和个人生活中都具有重要的指导意义。
