    Hello!

    I’m Eleanor, a junior at Occidental College in Los Angeles. I love keeping up with the community of bSmart women!

    @BaileeIrvine @MaryBemis @IndiaJones @BrookeSpencerVigil @KristinKerr
    I’m tagging you to participate in the “10-Question Challenge” in our community!
    Please feel free to copy/paste to answer the 10 questions below, then tag 5 bSmart women to answer, too!

    1) Who tagged you: @TracyKim
    2) How are you feeling right now: Excited! My dad is coming to visit me this weekend so I am looking forward to hanging out with him and having some quality family time away from my busy school routine.
    3) Who are your role models and dream mentors, and if you like tell us why: When I was abroad in Indonesia last semester I stayed with an incredible homestay mother who took me in and made me feel like family. Her unconditional love and warmth, despite a language and culture barrier, is something I hope to forever remember and give to others in my life.
    4) What motivates you to get out of bed: I have an app called The Shine that I open first thing in the morning. It sends a daily mindful moment to think about throughout the day. Highly recommend!
    5) What is your dream career: I would love to get involved with a company that gives back as a part of their mission, or work in a position of social responsibility or philanthropy.
    6) Where are you right now and where would you like to be in 10 years: I am currently in Los Angeles, and in 10 years I hope to still be in a city! I love LA but I think I would be happy in many places.
    7) What skill would you like to master: Salsa dancing. I took a lesson with a friend last weekend and had so much fun.
    Share something that you want other bSmart members to know about you: I recently became vegan for health reasons. I was sick abroad and when I came home I picked up the book Super Immunity. I've been following that diet (mostly!) since January.
    9) Take a minute and update your own bSmart profile so that it is easier for our members to find you:  https://bsmartguide.com/connect/profile/edit.html
    10) Attach a favorite photo of yours that is not your profile picture: Below is a photo from my cousin's wedding.

    Warm wishes,

    Eleanor

    Sharing this gorgeous painting from the Philly Art Museum in honor of the fact that I made offical today my acceptance to start a Comparative Literature Ph.D. at the University of Pennsylvania in the fall. I am so looking forward to this new challenge and the wonderful opportunity to pursue my work on contemporary women's writing, femininity, and intersectionality.

    "Portrait of Lucy Lewis" by Thomas Eakins represents my PhD project in a few ways: Lucy Lewis is a teacher and social advocate uplifting other women. While Eakins is known for brutual honesty in his paintings, he painted her in conventional ways to show her as beautiful and feminine. Representation of empowerment and indulgence come together in this picture in complex ways that I'm setting out to untangle. ‏ — at 2600 Benjamin Franklin Pkwy, Philadelphia, PA 19130, USA feeling happy

  • Dear Meagan Hooper,

    I wanted to contact you because you've kindly been a mentor during and since my time at bSmart.
    As I finish up my senior year, I am trying to figure out what lies down the road after graduation. I am greatly interested in event planning, hospitality, etc and was wondering if you knew of anyone who might be hiring or who might be a good person to speak to, given how 'in the know' you are.

    I know you're very busy so thank you so much for even taking the time to read this. I appreciate any advice or information and I hope you have a wonderful weekend!

    Female confidence and capability is often labeled as being ‘bossy.’ This is a myth that needs to be debunked. bSmart women are guided by vision, purpose, and inner strength. Being empowered in your own strength is not a sign of being bossy or overbearing: it’s a sign of inner beauty and courage to stand up for who you are.

    What area of your life can you practice more confidence or courage?
