Women Who WOW Now!!

WOMEN’S HISTORY MONTH: WOMEN WHO WOW NOW MARCH 25, 2018                   BY  KERIKA FIELDS NALTY PIN IT March is Women’s History Month. Many deserving women have been remembered for their accomplishments and deservedly so. Those who have come before us and passed on are sure sources of strength and inspiration. Amelia Earhart, Zora Neal Hurston, Clara Barton, Coco Chanel, Bebe Moore Campbell, Julia Child, the list goes awesomely on and on. The thing is, most women I know want to smell their flowers while they are alive. I love a good tribute at an awards show, but how great was it seeing Diana Ross being honored at this year’s American Music Awards while she is still with us and can sing her own songs?

What is "With Your Bad Self" ?

I’m an awesome author, phenpmenal photographer, badass blogger here to inspire and be inspired to laugh, love, and live a luscious  life. I attribute  my cravings for creativity to my grandmother Marie who, when encouraging me to go for it, whatever it was, would exclaim “Go Ahead With You Bad Self”! These words push me forward through this fun, frustrating, fabulous life. I will utilize this space to highlight things that inspire me, drive me, encourage me and make me want to shout "Go Ahead With Your Bad Self!"                                                                                                                            ...
