Kim Miale knows a thing or two about being the only woman in the room.
The NFL agent and general counsel for Roc Nation Sports teamed up with e.l.f. Cosmetics and PEOPLE to give a pep talk about how she approaches every situation with the utmost confidence.
Before applying e.l.f's Halo Glow Liquid Filter, she explains that she's putting on makeup to speak at a sports conference.
"I'm the only woman on the panel — of course. And there's going to be a lot of people there, so it's super nerve-wracking, especially when I'm running on a few hours of sleep," she says. "But as a new mom with a baby, a good night's sleep is hard to come by these days."

Noting that she strives to always "look and feel my best," she adds that e.l.f. is the perfect solution to "helping me look well-rested even though I'm not."
After applying some of e.l.f's Primer-Infused Matte Blush, Miale says that also make sure to wear something "that I love and that I feel very comfortable in."
"To help ease your nerves, always remember that as a woman, you have a unique and interesting perspective to share, and that should always be heard," she adds after using e.l.f's Jelly Pop Glow Stick.

"And never be intimidated for being the only woman in the room. Look at it as an opportunity instead of a disadvantage," continues Miale as she applies a touch of e.l.f's Glow Reviver Lip Oil.
"The bottom line is: If you approach everything with the utmost confidence, whether it's public speaking or negotiating a contrast against a room full of men, you won't lose," she adds.
As Miale completes her look, Miale reminds everyone to "shoot for the stars."
