For Women’s History Month back in March, we asked our Wibbers about women they look up to. It’s important for us to have other women to look up to as a reminder of the progress we have made and an incentive to continue their legacy. Here are some of their answers :
Deepica Mutayla
She is the South Asian representation in the beauty community that i didn’t have while growing up! - Shreya
Eli Rallo
She is hilarious and gives me such great hope about what life can be like post-grad. She’s currently managing a podcast, freelance journalism, writing a book, and managing a huge TikTok following.
Joanna Gaines
I look up to Joanna because of her commitment to family while being amazing at everything she does. From decorating, gardening, and baking, she really does do it all and I hope to one day emulate her as a mother and business woman. - Kayla
Emily Weiss
Emily Weiss is the CEO of Glossier which is a brand I personally admire due to the brands ability to redefine beauty and be such an empowering company for many girls. Emily Weiss is the brain behind this company and I admire her a lot for her ability to persevere through challenges and create a company that is so successful and admired by many women. - Aashna
Oprah Winfrey
She inspires me with her passion and drive for success, despite who/what may try to slow her down. Also, she was the first Black woman to be named a billionaire! - Anonymous
Princess Diana
Instead of following the ways of the royal family, Princess Diana took it upon herself to help others as much as possible. Here selfless attitude inspired many and can be seen in her quote "Anywhere I see suffering, that is where I want to be, doing what I can." - Anonymous
