Women’s empowerment begins with asking for what you want. You simply can’t be empowered while unnecessarily apologizing all over yourself or wishing and hoping things would fall into your lap.
As someone who has done hiring, let me say this: salary negotiation is expected. When it doesn’t happen, it genuinely feels a little weird. I, in this hypothetical scenario where I’m considering you for a job, want to know not only that you’re qualified, but also that you know your value and expect your employer to as well. I want confidence as much as competence, because it's a good indicator of your personal integrity.
