VIEWPOINT Have you thought about the ramifications on our youth - the messages that are being sublimely sent by society and the media about women? Do you realize that media today totally exploits women as nothing but sexual beings? Making a TV Commercial of a Sexy, Beautiful Woman eating a hamburger? What are the silent messages that are being sent? This is important to grasp, why? Because women who blaze the trails, go where their career is predominately male, these women have a huge road to travel! When I read that Hillary Clinton (may) run for the presidency for 2016 - I knew that this was going to be an all out struggle to combat the negativity, the stereotyping that the media and political affiliations resort to. Hillary not only will need all of our votes, but she will need our support and our encouragement, our inspiration and knowledge and assistance to support her and prove to the country that women can lead! This magazine is my way to show the country and the world how women are blazing those trails. How they are making those changes, stepping out to conquer new challenges and steer their organizations to a more compassionate, caring, yet decisive level. You will learn about the hurdles they encounter, and how they over come them. How their skills and expertise actually assist in changing a policy or a perception. How they are banning together to give our youth the strength to seek the roadway to their success - find their voice and bring individuality and acceptance to those around them. I encourage you to share this magazine with all of your friends and family! Give it to a youth that is struggling - I do believe that at least one of the stories in this magazine will inspire them to step outside the box! 2 Judy Musgrove, Publisher
