White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt who turned heads as the youngest (27 years) to have held the post shared some pieces of advice she may have for the youngsters who are in college or just entering their professional lives. In an interview with Lara Trump, Donald Trump’s daughter-in-law, who returned to Fox News with her new show, Karoline spoke about how she became a mother during the campaign and bounced back to work and is now juggling the roles.As Lara asked her to give some advice to those who aspire to be like her, Karolin said if you are a Conservative voice on the campus, then you are definitely in the minority but that should not dissuade you from speaking the truth.
Even if it’s against the professors, which Karoline said she did a lot in her college asking youngsters to raise their voice. “Seize every opportunity. Even if it’s an unpaid opportunity with long hours, just do it, it will lead you to the next opportunity in life.”
“And thirdly, remember someday your intern could possibly be your boss. So never burn bridges and leave everybody with a good impression.”
‘Working with President Donald Trump means…’
Leavitt said President Trump is a good listener and values every opinion which is fascinating to her though this means long working hours for her. “He’s so generous with his time, I have noticed. And sometimes that means we are running late. Here in the White House, Trump time is a real thing,” Leavitt said.
Talking about juggling her roles as a mom and as the White House press secretary, Leavitt said that she has a new perspective after becoming a mother. “I want my son to grow up in a free America that we’ve studied and learnt about in our classrooms and not this hatred.”
“I try to tell myself when there are long hours and even nights and days away from my son, campaigning with the president and now working with the White House, that this is temporary and once-in-a-lifetime and we are doing real work. You just do your best, don’t really sleep much and and get up the next day and do the best,” Leavitt said.
