Are there any particular women who have inspired you, and if so, how have they influenced your life?

I greatly look up to women who openly talk about the hidden cost of trying to do EVERYTHING. As women, we CAN do just about anything, but there are also real costs that we scarcely talk about. I appreciate when women are real about what they prioritize, what they sacrifice in pursuit of something else, the help they utilize, and how they integrate their many competing priorities. It is a detriment to everyone when we pretend like we can do it all, all the time, all by ourselves. Maybe we can, but that is not the type of entrepreneurial life I am after. It reeks of burn out, anxiety, and trying to heal wounds through achievement. I am after both freedom and peace. The women who openly discuss their strengths AND their limitations (opportunity to delegate) inspire me. REAL inspires me... and it is rarer than it should be. Warmly, Nicole Stax

The women in my family have set the benchmark for me; right from my grandmother to taught herself to read and write while teaching the youngest of her 5 kids to my mom who pushed away family pressures of marrying her daughters young and ensured that all her girls were financially independent before they made this decision.

My role models are definetly strong women in family like my mother and my grandma. Other than that Frida Kahlo :)

I peeked at the responses before writing mine - and I totally have to agree my mom is one of my biggest inspirations. More recently I've been inspired by Leila Hormozi. Her content is golden! I admire her work ethic, honesty, and energy.

As a creator and a newsletter writer, I'm really inspired by Anne-Laure (@anthilemoon) & Steph Smith (@stephsmith). Both of these incredible women put out high-quality content, are amazing people and ship things that make people's lives better.

For me, its my mom. My dad died of health issues when I was 7 and she never remarried and raised me on her own. I see her as the strongest and resilient personality I know. Also, she is an exemplary figure I look up to when life throws a fireball at me be it at work or life in general I stay optimistic and sail through it. I think thats all from her.

@lisadziuba inspires me a lot, she is a marketing legend

Rifqa Bary, Sabina Wurmbrand, and Corrie Ten Boom are inspiring.

I hired CYBER GENIE Private Investigators in the USA to find my 13-year-old niece who had been missing for 10 days. Our family was desperate and felt we needed to hire a private investigator because we were not satisfied with how her case was being handled by the authorities. Whether she was a runaway or missing, she was a 13yr old girl that needed to be found before falling into the wrong hands. CYBER GENIE INTERCONTINENTAL and his team did what the NYPD couldn’t do and found her in 2 days. He is truly a hero in our eyes. Our sincere gratitude to him and his team. Here is how to reach out to them ( cybergenie AT cyberservices DOT com ) ( WHATSAPP +1.2.5.2.5.1.2.03,91 ).
