With the help of social media, we’re filling spaces we once assumed were void of big haired, bright lipstick wearing, bold personality badass women! Social media is the catalyst for exposing droves of women executing plans, birthing businesses, and knocking down barriers. Seriously, they’re doing a damn good job at it too!
