“We all have self-doubt and we all are afraid to take on certain challenges. But once you’ve decided that this is the right thing to do, then go forward with full confidence”
Andrea Stewart-Cousins Illustration: Lauren Tamaki Andrea Stewart-Cousins is the first female senate majority leader in New York’s history, and she had to fight hard for it. Last year, in a battle with Governor Andrew Cuomo, Stewart-Cousins helped disband the notorious Independent Democratic Conference , eight senate Democrats who had helped keep Republicans in control of the chamber for nearly a decade. But the leader hasn’t had a typical political operative’s career.
Sometimes I’m underestimated, but once I began to believe in myself, it’s just been about pushing through. We all have self-doubt and we all are afraid to take on certain challenges. But once you’ve decided that this is the right thing to do, then go forward with full confidence. So do I “lean in”? Yes. But some people want the job because oh, well, then you have power. Power was never what drove me. I’ve always wanted to work in politics so that I could govern.
