Empowering Women Through the Power of Storytelling
After a resurgence of the #MeToo movement, this year women are poised to make a splash in 2018. Kelly McNelis, Founder of the website Women For One and author of "Your Messy Brilliance" joins Cheddar to discuss how sharing your story could make a world of difference.
Women For One is an online community where women from more than 50 countries share their stories. It's McNelis' hope that, in continuing to share women's truths and talents, Women For One will encourage everyone to take a stand on the issues that most impact our lives, while building a supportive community.
Plus, in her new book "Your Messy Brilliance" McNeils encourages women to embrace their messiness and not striving for perfection, but rather, be open to anything that comes your way.
