Today I’m adding 5 awesome women bloggers to my Blogroll who I’ve met in the last year. Thanks for inspiring me, kicking arse and taking names like these badass roller girls!
I’ve picked 3 words to describe each blog:
- Afrobella – Glamour, Class, Intuition
- Awesomely Luvvie – Humor, Smile, Red
- AngelOnFire – Fierce, Style, Real
- Denise Jacobs – Joy, Hope, Manifest
- Rachel Baker – Geek, Entrepreneur, Hyperlocal

Each of these women have given me guidance, whether they know it or not, every time they’ve hit “publish” on their blogs. I’ve seen them struggle with career, family, fame, haters, business deals gone bad, business deals gone good, health issues, weight loss, weight gain, moves halfway across the country, technology triumphs and technology disasters. More recently, landing book deals and finding lucky four leaf clovers stuck to your shoes causing you to bend down and pick up a winning, uncashed lottery tickets (well, maybe not those last two but I’m sure they are right around the corner!). It’s given me the courage to step out of my comfort zone and reach a bit further than I normally would. I’ve come a very long way in the last year, feeling like my spirit has been reborn with this intense desire to authentically connect with others. It’s like hot chocolate for the soul and I wondered what I had been so afraid of before.
Life is about living. That takes a certain amount of risk. Walking forward into the unknown. Thank you ladies for leading the way!
