I am reading "Reading Jackie" by William Kuhn. I really just started. I had to stop to blog for a minute.
I want to write this while I remember to tell my girls, to tell YOU something important.
I don't want to ever hear my daughters say "I don't want to be known as a "brain"." Never.
I am sad Jacqueline Lee Bouvier "Jackie" Kennedy Onassis ever thought, much less reportedly said, that she didn't want to be known as a brain. It troubles me that she chose the fashion icon, social skills, wife, and even White House Restoration.
No, there's nothing wrong with any of those things. I'd be proud of my girls; I'd be proud of YOU, if you managed to pull these things off. Jackie kept the world enthralled.
You can too. Just do it without fear of being labeled a "brain." Please.
Wonder why? Have you ever heard of a powerful man being afraid to carry the label "brain?" No? Me either.
Own your beauty. Own your brain. That's how women will come to own the power.
Repeat after me: "I am drop-dead gorgeous AND brilliant, a brain. I own it."
You are. Yes. You. Every. Single. One.
