Raising up two daughters in this modern world can at times feel a little overwhelming. I know that strong female role models are necessary for me AND for them! Do you want to feel inspired, encouraged, and strengthened? I know I sure do!
Come with me and feel inspired when you follow my Top 10 List of Twitter Accounts for Moms!
1. Be an Inventor
The National Inventors Hall of Fame @InventorsHOF
One of the ways that I find helps me to keep my focus on the big picture and be reminded of the great things that are happening by women and for women is to surround myself with the sisterhood of other strong women.
Everywhere we look we can find despair and bad news. It’s enough to make us feel beat down. So, instead, I am choosing to link arms with the positive, the bright souls, the voices of change, the successful, and those that empower other women.
Do you have strong girls that you want to inspire? Do you want to be a force for good and positive change in their lives?
