What Does Girlpower Mean?

Girlpower and Gloria Steinem

I watched an HBO special on Gloria Steinem last night.  Fascinating glimpse into how the feminist movement gained steam in the 60s and 70s and how Gloria navigated her way through it — paving the way for ALL women. Including me.

And then it struck me — the name I’d chosen for my company is really what she’s all about: girl power.  The term doesn’t mean we’re better or stronger, it simply means we’re equal, and a force to be reckoned with.

There’s still a way to go on the road to equality but Gloria certainly has provided a solid start.  Thanks Gloria, I’m forever grateful.

If you get the chance, watch Gloria: In Her Own Words, running on HBO for the next couple of weeks.  Superb.
