This book is filled with the stories of bold women from the past and present who remind us that nothing is impossible.
These women faced daunting obstacles and overcame them. They were told “no” too many times to count. They were underestimated and underappreciated. But that didn’t stop them.
We’ve all had to deal with people who tell us that we don’t belong. As a brown girl growing up in rural South Carolina, I know this all too well. Men and women alike told me I was too young, too brown, too female, too conservative to run for office. I refused to take their doubts to heart. I drew inspiration from women before me who refused to take "no" for an answer.
The 10 women in this book were no different. Women like Claudette Colvin who was told at 15 years of age she was too young to make a difference. People like Jeane Kirkpatrick who didn't fit the mold of what others expected when she became the United States’ first female UN ambassador.
I found motivation in these trailblazing women who had the guts to stand up and take charge throughout history. Ten amazing women who dared to be brave, who dared to defy the odds.
