Clinton’s advice has helped Abedin be “braver and bolder” in her professional life outside of politics, she said.
If you're lucky, you'll meet someone in your life that you can turn to for advice, comfort and inspiration — for Huma Abedin, that person just happens to be one of the most powerful women in politics.
After four years in the White House, first as an intern then aide, Abedin, now 46, went on to work as a senior adviser to Clinton during her time as a U.S. senator, as traveling chief of staff for Clinton's 2008 presidential campaign and as deputy chief of staff for the U.S. Department of State between 2008 and 2014, when Clinton was Secretary of State. She currently serves as Clinton's chief of staff.
That includes spending more time with her son, Jordan, in New York City and exploring new creative pursuits — she published her memoir, "Both/And," in November 2021. "She told me, 'Don't ever let anyone else tell you what to do with your life,'" Abedin recalled. "You have to make choices that you think are best for yourself, no matter what people say around you … ultimately, you need to do whatever you think is right for yourself, and let your values guide your decisions.""The biggest career decision I had to make was forcing myself to get out of my comfort zone once I left the White House," she said.
