Some of her latest posts include a photo of herself holding the book entitled “Know Your Value”. She went on to add the caption reading “Wow! A must read for any woman navigating her way through career and life, whether you’re in TV or not! Call the timing perfect, but I really connected with this and wanted to share. Thank you @mikabrzezinski for pouring your wisdom out on these pages. It’s a perfect Women’s HERstory Month read.” In addition to that, the journalist, who is also a feminist, shared a photo of herself and her friends enjoying a day at the beach.
