Who was the first Woman Power Wednesday?

Woman Power IconI was wondering . . .

And sort of blundering . .  .

in my thoughts this 

Wednesday morning.

Who was the very first?

Woman Power Wednesday

Woman ever spotlighted

Ever highlighted

Ever delighted

Ever sort of knighted

Surely I would not . . .

Have been so shortsighted

As to not make that day

All about my number one gal

My top pal

The queen of our morale.

Your MOM!

[See The first Woman Power Wednesday update and controversy here.]

PS: Proud of mom for her new assignment at work as the early childhood-evaluator for all three-year-olds coming into the district who need adaptive services. A well-deserved and perfect assignment. Those kids are lucky! 

PPS: Also of note, today is Women’s Equality Day, which commemorates the passage of the 19th Amendment to the U.S. Constitution, granting the right to vote to women. For more about that, check out this post on LinkedIn highlighted by our SVP of Design and Creation Products, Amy Bunszel, one of my favorite leaders at Autodesk. The post features Databricks, an interesting Austin-based data and AI company, as well as Coco Brown, founder and CEO of Athena Alliance, an organization you and your sisters should all check out. 

My rock!

NUGGETS began in the fall of 2010 when our oldest daughter left for college. (Make it a Great Monday; Stay Whole Tuesday; Woman Power Wednesday; Make Anything Thursday; and Fit as a Fiddle Friday.) All these years later, we have a UGA grad, a SCAD grad, a Fightin’ Texas Aggie grad, and 1500 nuggets. Plus, Mum and Dad up and moved to England. Those are my daughters above, and their guiding light – truly my every gPage Singletary thing.

RELEVANCE: From Beginning to End

How do you find and enjoy a place of purpose when you start your career, throughout your career, and when you stop ‘working’ and use your wisdom, resources, and skills to give back to the world? That’s right, from beginning to end. You don’t have to settle for doing things you do not enjoy.

Dear Harvey: Staying in the Game

In the end, Harvey, you left us your Little Red Book—a lifetime of lessons condensed into something small enough to fit in a pocket, yet broad enough to guide generations. These letters are my attempt, in a much humbler way, to do the same—to gather what the game has taught me so far, and to keep discovering what lies at the edges.
