WCW - Women Catapulting Women
Empower: make (someone) stronger and more confident, especially in controlling their life and claiming their rights. You saw this one coming. This week's WCW is the youngest Nobel Peace Prize winner, the incredibly powerful Malala Yousafzai. She comes from a different world, one where at times women aren't allowed to attend school. She fights for women to receive education, speaking out and even getting shot at for her beliefs. Now, in all honesty, you're probably thinking, "

Confident: Feeling or showing confidence in oneself; self-assured. Mindy Kaling may not seem like an obvious choice for our WCW, but that's mainly why she is. This lady is cool, calm, and collected in all of the right ways. Personally, I, like many others, fell in love with her as she ditz-ily bopped around on "The Office." After reading her first book, "Why is Everyone Hanging Out Without Me? (and Other Concerns)," I saw that she was quite the opposite of her male-dependent

Empower: make someone stronger and more confident, especially in controlling their life and claiming their rights. Who run the world? If you immediately thought "girls" (I did...guilty) you know who our next WCW is. Beyoncé. Or, as we at LITRD and so many others fondly refer to her as, Queen Bey. She's our queen because she has a message we can get behind. Through her music, she empowers us and encourages us to strive for the best. She shows us that our dreams are possible to

Pioneer: A person who is among the first. Laugh all you want, but our featured woman of the week is funny-woman Tina Fey! Sure, Tina is hilarious, but she's much more than that. Tina Fey is a comedic pioneer. As the first head writer on "Saturday Night Live," Tina broke barriers for future female comedians. Through her career, she's acted and written some of the most classic comedies in history right alongside men, who've held those roles for years. Now, I know what you're th

Striking: attracting attention by reason of being unusual, extreme, or prominent. Kendra Scott is a successful entrepreneur, jewelry designer, philanthropist, and mother. She sets herself apart from other entrepreneurs and is genuine and caring which is what makes her so striking and unique. Kendra Scott started out making hats for cancer patients losing their hair to chemotherapy. She then began creating jewelry in her home and selling it to local retailers in Austin, Texas

Determination: firmness of purpose; resoluteness. This week's WCW (Women Catapulting Women) goes to Simone Biles! Okay, maybe it's just because I'm in the Olympic spirit (or maybe it's because I secretly wish I could bounce and flip and jump just like her), but I, like the rest of the country, cannot stop thinking about how amazing gymnast Simone Biles is! Her determination to get her to the top is why she's the star of this weeks WCW (Women Catapulting Women). Yes, she's you

Debt: a liability or obligation to pay or render something. This is also known as slavery, anyone you are indebted to, they own you until the remittance of the value owed. This week's WCW (Women Catapulting Women) goes to THE Dani Johnson. I was blessed enough for a client to comp me tickets to attend one of her conferences and I can honestly say, my life has changed. My life and perception on debt has been enhanced for the better. Dani is an expert in business, finances, and

Brilliance: splendor, elegance, excellence or magnificence. FLOTUS, Michelle Obama embodies this definition perfectly. She is indeed a woman of brilliance in that she is accomplished, refined, has far-ranging talents and seemingly does it all: (working) mother, loving wife, dutiful daughter. Twice-Ivy League-educated lawyer and slayer of fashion all day, every day; genuine, down to earth, accessible, determined, compassionate; opener of the White House. Can you tell we go har

Oh, how I love a woman on a mission and with a vision. Being cute is AWESOME, being cute and smart is life! This week's WCW goes out to Jessica Alba, not only a phenomenal actress, and beauty spokesperson, but a fabulous philanthropist. Like only a real woman could, when something goes awry, she fixed it. Alba was inspired by the 2008 birth of her first child Honor and her own history of childhood illnesses to create a company that provided an alternative to the prevalent bab

Radiant: emitting rays of light; shining; bright with joy, and hope. Our first WCW goes out to the intellectually radiant, Kerry Washington! Kerry Washington is not only our first WCW just because she's gorgeous, spectacular, classy, amazing, reserved, AND smart. :) OR because she kicks major boo-tay on ABC's 'Scandal'... "please hurry back, please hurry back." Kerry Washington was chosen as our first WCW because of her stance as a woman. Always choosing to take on the role o
