Turn Survivors into Leaders in Less Than 5 Minutes
“
Empower women who have overcome adversity to be leaders in their lives, their families, and their communities.
Through her vision & the Women’s Leadership Institute, Dana Bristol-Smith changed my life (so much so, that I’ve recently been offered -- and accepted -- a position on its Advisory Council). We are currently in the running at the Pepsi Refresh Project to make it possible for more women to experience the same!
YOU can help us win a
$50,000 grant to
Expand the Women’s Leadership Institute throughout California
The top ten highest vote-getters in our category will be funded,
so please vote daily and encourage your friends to do the same!

Danny & Annie: A Love Story
Danny & Annie from StoryCorps on Vimeo.
This post is dedicated to Danny and Annie. And to finding our own Danny or Annie in each of our lives.
Be warned: This will probably make you cry. Or at least have your eyes well up!

Not Gonna Phone it in Tonight
I found this clip when I was looking for the Chris Farley videos for last next week’s post.
This is dedicated to anyone who may have been feeling – or maybe just realized – they’ve been “phoning it in” lately.
Hopefully it will inspire you to remember what it’s like to want to give 100% and maybe find your way back to that.
At the very least, it starts your week out with a solid dose of Steve Martin and a smile.
Just remember: If Rob Schneider can do it, so can you!
