Today on the Brett Winterble Show Brett celebrated Women's Month announcing A Symphony of Strength: Celebrating American Women

From the quill-dipped hands of the Revolution to the keyboard clicks of Silicon Valley, American women have woven an indelible thread into the fabric of our nation. March, Women's History Month, isn't just a nod to the past; it's a vibrant celebration of the present and a bold stride toward the future, a symphony of strength played by generations of pioneering women.  

Even in the nation’s infancy, women were more than silent partners. Think of Abigail Adams, whose letters to her husband John were a masterclass in political philosophy, demanding, “Remember the ladies.” While not holding formal office, she shaped the discourse and demanded inclusion. As the frontier expanded, women like Sacagawea guided expeditions, their knowledge and resilience paving the way for westward expansion. As industry boomed, women like Madam C.J. Walker, a self-made millionaire, revolutionized the beauty industry, building an empire and empowering countless others.  

The 20th century roared with the voices of women refusing to be silenced. From Amelia Earhart, soaring across the Atlantic, defying gravity and societal expectations, to Katherine Johnson, whose calculations propelled astronauts into space, their contributions were astronomical. Women shattered glass ceilings in every field, from medicine and law to arts and sciences.

In the business world, women have always been innovators. Estée Lauder, with her simple creams and unwavering vision, built a cosmetics empire that defined an era. Mary Kay Ash, with her "golden rule" philosophy, created a direct sales giant, empowering women to achieve financial independence. And today, women like Sara Blakely, with her revolutionary Spanx, demonstrate that entrepreneurial spirit knows no gender.  

Their words echo with timeless wisdom:
"The most common way people give up their power is by thinking they don’t have any." - Alice Walker
"You must do the things you think you cannot do." - Eleanor Roosevelt
"The question isn’t who is going to let me; it’s who is going to stop me." - Ayn Rand
“Don’t be intimidated by what you don’t know. That can be your greatest strength and ensure that you do things differently from everyone else.” - Sara Blakely  

"If you're offered a seat on a rocket ship, don't ask what seat! Just get on." - Sheryl Sandberg
To the girls of today, the future architects of our nation, take these words to heart. Embrace your curiosity, cultivate your resilience, and never underestimate your potential. Dare to dream big, to challenge the status quo, and to forge your own path. Find mentors who inspire you, build a network of support, and never stop learning. Your voice matters, your ideas are valuable, and your contributions are essential.
This Women's History Month, let us celebrate the legacy of those who came before us, and let us empower the women of today to create a future where every girl has the opportunity to shine. The symphony of strength continues, and its most beautiful melodies are yet to be written.
