An amazing read if you're looking for one -I just devoured this wonderful book by Kristin Ohlson - "Kabul Beauty School" and highly recommend it to you.
Ms. Ohlson, tells her story of joining a group of relief workers en-route to Afghanistan, where she discovered that although she wasn't a doctor, or a nurse, as a hairstylist she had much to contribute.
Part of the Workshops for Women message is that we each have a unique contribution to make ... and that being a woman who owns your power and beauty, your unique contribution looks differently to each of us.
To Ms. Ohlson it meant taking her skills as a hair stylist, and eventually moving to Afghanistan to open a school which trained other women to style hair - and therefore enabled those women to have a way of supporting their own households. In the process she found the courage to leave an abusive marriage, and found and claimed her own unique contribution in the world. What an amazing story!
I was inspired and reminded of what one courageous woman can do.
