When I was little, I wanted to be a super hero (some of you know this), I begged my mum to send me to school in my Wonder Woman costume just in case someone should happen to need my help - she didn't buy it, but sometimes I hid my costume underneath my clothes and I would go to school on watch for danger. This watch usually involved me taking a seat out in the hallway or in the corner, like the time I slapped the bully who was controlling all the toys & deciding who would & wouldn't get them, well I wasn't having any of it & swiftly gave her a slap (I don't condone violence these days) and liberated those toys for all the other children. Wonder woman would have been proud (though, not for the slapping really) I learned from her to stand up for what's right & that women could be strong too. Lately in the world, women haven't been getting treated so well or treating themselves well, so I wanted to create a series that celebrates women & encourages us that anything is possible & that we've done great things in this world. It's about women who have inspired me or you to become who we are. This series will also include your everyday ladies, some of which I have already begun interviewing (If you haven't been asked yet, you may just get asked in the future). So, this isn't just about famous women, but all women! I hope you'll enjoy it & feel free to nominate women yourself!
Have a great day flowers

***Mini Bio***
Wonder Woman is a fictional DC Comics super heroine created by psychologist and writer William Moulton Marston. She first appeared in All Star Comics #8 (December 1941). The Wonder Woman title has been published by DC Comics almost continuously except for a brief hiatus in 1986. Her depiction as a heroine fighting for justice, love, peace, and sexual equality has also led to Wonder Woman being widely considered a feminist icon.
Wonder Woman is a warrior princess of the Amazons (based on the Amazons of Greek mythology) and is known in her homeland as Diana of Themyscira. She is gifted with a wide range of superhuman powers and superior combat and battle skills. She also possesses an arsenal of weapons, including the Lasso of Truth, a pair of indestructible bracelets, a tiara which serves as a projectile, and, in some stories, an invisible aeroplane.

“This is the Golden Lasso. Besides being made from an indestructible material, it also carries with it the power to compel people to tell the truth. Use it well, and with compassion.” – Queen Hippolyte (played by Cloris Leachman)
“If it means interfering in an ensconced, outdated system, to help just one woman, man or child… I'm willing to accept the consequences.” -Wonder Woman #170
“What was it that John Lennon said? ‘Love is the flower you’ve got to let grow.’ Let it grow already, and quit trying to legislate it!” -Wonder Woman #200
“Please take my hand. I give it to you as a gesture of friendship and love, and of faith freely given. I give you my hand and welcome you into my dream.” -Wonder Woman #167
“Go in peace my daughter. And remember that, in a world of ordinary mortals, you are a Wonder Woman.” Queen Hippolyte
