Every strong woman with a mind of her own has been called crazy at some point in her life. This is an ode to all you crazy women!
Let them call you emotional It only shows how strong you are Equality is not a small battle Come on girl, prepare for war!
Let them call you dramatic Express yourself whole and soul Do not listen to what they say Winning should be your only goal.
Let them call you delusional Not everyone can dream like you Only a small set work towards it Stand up for those very few.
Let them call you hysterical Don’t let your anger hold you back Invest it in making yourself stronger Remember, there is nothing you lack.
Let them call you unreasonable Gender doesn’t define ambition Go ahead and chase the higher goal You don’t need any one’s validation
Let them call you unladylike Words like these don’t define you Be who you are, in all your glory Paint yourself in your unique hue
Let them call you crazy It takes guts to dream and go for it Everyone successful was once called that For greater things, you are built
Turn a deaf ear to all that they say You move forward, bit by bit Nothing is impossible for you Come on girl, just do it!

I wanted to scream with excitement that my daughter chose to write about her ambition and aspirations over everything else first. To me, this was one of those parenting 'win' moments.
My daughter turned eight years old in January, and among the various gifts she received from friends and family was an absolutely beautiful personal journal for self-growth. A few days ago, she was exploring the pages when she found a section for writing a letter to her future self. She found this intriguing and began jotting down her thoughts animatedly.
My curiosity piqued and she could sense it immediately. She assured me that she would show me the letter soon, and lo behold, she kept her word.
I glanced at her words, expecting to see a mention of her parents in the first sentence. But, to my utter delight, the first thing she had written about was her AMBITION. Yes, the caps here are intentional because I want to scream with excitement that my daughter chose to write about her ambition and aspirations over everything else first. To me, this was one of those parenting ‘win’ moments.
It's well known how diplomatic and professional Priyanka Chopra is. Why would she want to stir the hornet’s nest when everyone’s happy in their personal space?
Priyanka Chopra (PC) did something completely out of character. She’s usually known for being articulate and mostly diplomatic, unless she wants to give sassy comebacks to people who try to put her on the spot or ‘in her place’.
She’s someone who’s never fought the establishment because she understands you can’t win against it anyway. But you can work around it to get your way to the top. She’s a thorough professional and team player.

It’s good to see this unfiltered, vulnerable side of her for a change. PC revealed one of her reasons for shifting to Hollywood on the podcast, Armchair Expert with Dax Shepard.
