What Your Peers Were Doing This Week

2. Kate Maloney is spreading the word about the RiseUP Movement, including its soon-to-be released film. Entrepreneur rockstars like Blake Mycoskie, founder of TOMS Shoes; Miki Agrawal, CEO of Thinx; and John Mackey, CEO of Whole Foods, are involved and Maloney said they are ready to take a stand for conscious businesses to be the new model of success and leading the way to a more global community.

Last But Not Least (some empowerment)

Everyone talks about getting a mentor, but finding the right mentor is key. A woman should always have at least three types of people in her corner –

1. a woman to coach and guide you through your growth, because ruling the world requires you to stretch yourself emotionally, mentally and spiritually.
2. a woman who has already successfully done what you’re trying to do so she can teach you how to get there.
3. a successful male to give her another perspective and outlook.
