The biggest lesson I was reminded of talking to The North Face\\u2019s Vice President of Global Product Kelly Cortina? You have to put your oxygen mask on first before you can help others. That, and there\\u2019s true value in being vulnerable. Excited to bring you my conversation with the Connecticut native in episode 85 of Hurdle, where she gives me the lowdown on her career path \\u2014 starting at Abercrombie & Fitch and making her way to TNF. We talk about the difficult #hurdlemoment of relocating her family (including her two little boys) not once, but twice, within one year, and how she manages to give back to herself when she feels super alone or stressed. Plus, she talks about what it\\u2019s like to be one of the few women in a management position at TNF, and what she hopes to instill in her team as they brave this new chapter in the Mile High City.
