What makes you a badass?

I once asked a colleague for a job recommendation.  She sent one sentence: “Gina doesn’t just talk about doing things; she gets things done.” 

Wow.  I had never appreciated that about myself. And I certainly never anticipated that other people appreciated it, too!

I remember reading Malcolm Gladwell’s book, “The Tipping Point”. When I got to the section on “connectors” I remember thinking “that’s me!” I love introducing people to other people, making connections for colleagues, connecting dots where there seem to be none.

I have been talking in front of large groups of people since I was 13 years old, competing in 4-H public speaking contests. All these years later I have almost zero fear when it comes to presenting or speaking.

Action-oriented. Connector. Communicator. Those are the things that make me a badass. 

We all have strengths; we all have talents. They are personal and unique to us. They reflect our experiences – what we have accomplished, what we have overcome and what we have learned. And – in so many cases – these strengths and talents seem so natural to us that we don’t appreciate how powerful they can be if we intentionally start focusing on them and using them.

What happens when we start doing that?  We start showing up in big (badass!) ways. We start living a life that feels full and real, powerful and impactful.

And you know what? I want this for every woman in our community! I want every single one of you to know what makes you a badass!
