If you happened to miss Oprah’s final show, I wanted to share some of her words with you. They are PERFECTLY ALIGNED with WSA’s vision to empower the voice of the 21st century woman. Please let me know what you think:

“Each one of you has your own platform. Mine is a stage in a studio. Yours is wherever you are, with your own reach, however small however large that reach is, maybe it’s 20 people, maybe it’s 30 people, 40 people, your family, your friends, your neighbors, your classmates, your classroom, your co-workers. Wherever you are, that is your platform, your stage, your circle of influence. That is your talk show and that is where your power lies. In every way, in every day you’re showing people exactly who you are. Your letting your life speak for you. And when you do that you will receive in direct proportion to how you give through whatever platform you have. Of course the circumstances are all different for all of us but the power I know is the same. You can help somebody. You can listen. You can forgive. You can heal. You have the power to change somebody’s life. Look around and you’ll see. You may not have to look any further than your own family or maybe even your own self. The power is the same. Everybody has a calling. Not everybody gets paid for it bit everybody is called.

My great wish for all of you is that you carry forth with whatever it is that your supposed to be doing.  Carry that forward and don’t waste any more time. Start embracing the life that is calling you & use your life to save the world.”
