A Woman in Power

Today was an easy day in my nanny life. These days don't come around too often! I am currently in one of my favorite coffee shops enjoying a yummy vanilla latte before a late night workout across the street. Vienna, this little town, is so quaint and cozy. I love spending my free time here!

While sitting here listening to Good Old War, Matt and Kim, along with other various artists, I began to think about my day yesterday and I decided I wanted to share my thoughts with all of you here on my blog.

While at CMU, I was a member of a club called Organization of Women Leaders (OWLS) and it was a group of women who were in leadership positions and women who are inspiring and just incredible! At each meeting, we would discuss issues within society, specifically relating to women, and it was just a time where powerful women got together and discussed anything and everything. Little did I know that I would soon be working for a woman who is the CEO of a successful company that she has built from the ground up. 

Yesterday, I took the kiddos to visit their parents at work, and the second I stepped into their mum's office, it truly opened my eyes to who she is outside of the house, what she has accomplished, and how amazing she is. Looking around the office, I saw pictures, magazine covers, and newspaper articles recognizing her and all of her accomplishments. At 41, she has done so much and she isn't even close to being done! She has created and managed one of the fastest growing independent companies in the United States! Business Journal has published articles, along with other similar journals. 

This took me back to OWLS and made me reflect on my future goals. I'm so blessed to live and work for a woman that is and will continue to be a role model and an inspiration. 

Women are leaders. Women are successful. Women have brilliant ideas. Women can inspire and make dreams a reality. Women have positions of power. Women are capable of anything. Women are fearless. We are all equal.
