1. No More Fat


Instead of cutting fat out of your diet, every woman should cut the word fat from their vocabulary. Let’s vow not to use the word altogether.


2. Compliments Not Criticisms


From now on if you hear a criticism, make sure it is followed by a hearty com- pliment. Try it yourself this year.


3. Financial Makeover


Getting your finances in check is a good resolution for anyone, but especially for women because re- search has proven that women are not as finan- cially literate as men.


4. Be Active


This year, stand up for a cause you really care about. It’s empowering to make a difference in the world by donating your time or money to some- thing you are passionate about.


Jan/Mar 2014


This year, make sure you don’t sell yourself short at work and make sure you are being compensated competitively. Check outWomen & Co for some resources in asking for a raise or promotion.


Help pave the way for a future full of fierce females by mentoring a woman or girl in your life. Take the new women at work under your wing or check out a youth organization to find a girl to mentor.

5. Live Healthy


Let’s stop making resolu- tions to lose weight and instead get healthy. Eat more fruits, vegetables and lean protein. Make healthy snacking choices and stay hydrated.


6. Shatter Gender Stereotypes


If you take a listen, gender stereotypes are all around us. Make a point this year to make sure you use fe- male pronouns when speaking and integrate women into phrases that are typically male. For ex- ample, instead of saying “man up” tell someone to “woman up” or say “woman power” instead of “man power.”


7. Career Advancement


8. This Is What A Feminist Looks Like


For so many people, the word ‘feminist’ has so many negative connota- tions. People picture bra burning, man hating, ag- gressive women. Well, turns out being a feminist means believing in equality. That’s it, so embrace the word and don’t be afraid to call your- self a feminist.


9. You First


Traditionally women learn to be nurturers and take care of everyone around them. Well this year,make sure to put yourself first. Take time every day (even if it’s just 5 minutes) for you
