Trouble Makers

The trouble with trouble

Getting into and out of trouble is THE survival skill for women in the 21st century.
A few of my favorite trouble makers: 

Ellen DeGeneres, Amy Schumer, Nellie Bly, Bethany Hamilton, Nikki Haley, Beyoncé, Susana Martinez, Martha Stewart, Tammy Duckworth, Missy Elliott, Susan Collins, Catharine Bond Hill, Venus and Serena Williams, Kathrine Switzer, Rosa Parks. 

So, this winter, go out and make some trouble!

The Woman in the Arena

The Woman in the Arena*

“It is not the critic who counts;
not the woman who points out how the strong woman stumbles,
or where the doer of deeds could have done them better.
The credit belongs to the woman who is actually in the arena,
whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood;
who strives valiantly; who errs, who comes short again and again,
because there is no effort without error and shortcoming;
but she who does actually strive to do the deeds;
who knows great enthusiasms, the great devotions;
who spends herself in a worthy cause;
who at the best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement,
and who at the worst, if she fails, at least fails while daring greatly,
so that her place shall never be with those cold and
timid souls who neither know victory nor defeat.”

Let’s all get in the arena,

To be the first female anything takes courage, a willingness to risk, and a burning passion for your cause.

Tell us, what is your arena?
