Sometimes breaks are necessary - incubation for your thoughts, feelings, goals. I've spent the last several weeks transitioning from living in Antalya, Turkey to Los Angeles, California. As I reflect back on this year, and take some much needed time to adjust to my new life, I've found strength, inspiration, and motivation from a number of famous and powerful women. Today, I've edited together three speeches by Taylor Swift, Madonna, and Oprah. Who better to speak about what it is like as a female entrepreneur/artist/leader than these three?

Native Peoples have not suddenly reappeared because of the Dakota Pipeline, they have always been here, since before America was even an idea.

Meet Dr. Sarah Shear, a woman on a quest to challenge the ways we teach social studies to students K-12. Take a listen, join the dialogue.

In a world of fad diets and celebrity workouts, with an ever-increasing number of “ideal” images of the female body bombarding us at every turn, our relationship with our own skin has been hijacked. How do we restart the conversations and judgements we have in our heads, find peace in our bodies, and learn to bring our natural talents and skills out into the world? One woman is on a mission to help plus-size women do just that. Meet Rachel Estapa of More to Love.

We start out discussing Rachel’s recent transition from full-time to part-time work in order to focus more of her energy on More to Love. We discussed procrastination, motivation, and organization. Getting a business started, or even navigating the working world, how do we ensure that we not only value ourselves, but we value the work we do? Rachel gives advice and shares her experience with providing work for free, the benefits and the pitfalls.

Then we get into the growing community Rachel has started with More to Love, from her online course to her Yoga classes in the Boston area. She offers a simple solution to anyone ready to begin a journey of self-love; a way to begin to challenge the way you see and interact with your body.
