Christina Norman, Janice Min, Jane Buckingham, and Lori Leibovich Offer Career Advice At BlogHer 2011 (VIDEO)

First Posted: 08/09/11 11:13 AM ET   Updated: 10/08/11 06:12 AM ET

This past weekend HuffPost Women and HuffPost Parents hosted a panel at the 2011 BlogHer conference in San Diego. We live-blogged the discussion as it happened, and now we're sharing some of our favorite moments in the videos below.

The theme of the conversation was how women can redefine success on their own terms. We heard Janice Min, Editorial Director of The Hollywood Reporter, and Christina Norman, former CEO of OWN and Executive Editor of Huffington Post Black Voices, discuss how women can better approach competition in the workplace. Jane Buckingham, founder of Trendera and author of "The Modern Girl Guides," talked about how we deal with the fact that men seem to feel so much less conflict than women do between work and family life. And Lori Leibovich, The Huffington Post's Executive Women's Editor, recalled what a difference a female boss made for her at a crucial moment in her life.

Overall, the discussion revealed a lot of hard-won wisdom, answered many questions, and provoked some new ones. We hope you enjoy it as much as we did.

Agree with the panelists? Disagree? We'd love to hear your thoughts in the comments.

I attended this panel discussion with great interest to see what these influential women would say about the topic of "Success on Our Own Terms." Initially there was great content, especially when Christina Norman talked about 'success not coming at someone else's failure." However, I ended up being very disappointed that the discussion devolved into more of a "whining" session. There were too many comments about why men are the way they are instead of focusing on the topic. Women are not men; men are not women. I truly wished that the panel had remained focused on giving their expertise on achieving leadership and defining success.
