"My Life. My Rules."
Ladies... We only get this one life on earth. Makes sense to me that we should be the only ones charged with creating OUR life's path based on OUR rules and no one else's rules... not rules set by your parents, society, your children, your spouse, your friends... just YOU. This is sometimes sooo hard to do. Guilt is part of our DNA and we often want to people-please to the n'th degree. Repeat to yourself, "My Life. My Rules."
Inspired by Emmeline Pankhurst - Born to Raise Hell (and Raise Votes) 💥💄✊
On 15.July.1858 (yes, we checked the birth certificate), Emmeline Pankhurst entered the world—and lucky for us, she came ready to shake the system.
By fourteen, while most teens were worried about homework, Emmeline was already diving into the Women’s Suffrage Movement. And by 1903, she said, “Enough talk!” and founded the Women’s Social & Political Union (WSPU)—aka the boldest, baddest squad fighting for Women’s right to vote. 💅💪
Emmeline didn’t just attend rallies. She led them, sparked national outrage, got arrested, and never stopped pushing until Women’s voices were heard at the ballot box. She made HERstory on repeat and paved the damn way for every vote we cast today.
And let’s just take a moment for one of her all-time greatest mic drops:
“Trust in God – She will provide.”
👏👏👏
Power. Poise. Protest. That was Emmeline. And we’re still walking the path she kicked open in heels.
