To be a Badass woman, you gotta have a mentor. Another badass woman.
My friend sent me this meme this morning. It was in her FB memories, and I had tagged her on it two years ago. Today she returned it and it’s just what I needed to see.
This is the same friend I meet for coffee when time allows. I wrote about her in Women Like Us. I aspire to be her level of badass. The words that jumped out at me this morning were, ‘more faith than fear.’
It’s as simple as that.
My daughter is home from England.
She flew there March 11th and three days later, all flights were canceled. It would have been easy to let fear creep in, but I’m too stubborn for that. My Mama was a badass woman and she raised one.
I had faith my daughter would return home eventually, but with each passing day I didn’t see any indication from the airlines. That is when my talks with God became more ‘high spirited’ and I laid all that fear at His feet. My fear was overcome by faith.
When my daughter’s text came in that said, “Virgin is still operational, I’ll be home tomorrow night.’, I burst into tears!
The tears were a combination of relief and joy. I knew God had heard me and He knew I couldn’t take much more. I reached out to my friend and asked her to ‘pray that girl home with me’, and she jumped on it. I’m grateful to all of you for praying.
Thank you my friend for reminding me to continue blossoming into a Badass woman with more faith than fear.
I’m thankful for badass mentors and friends who pray. I’m happy your daughter made it safely home!

Just for interest I looked up the definition for “badass” – tough, uncompromising, or intimidating.
I think the definition needs more synonyms such as fearless, enduring, resilient. Agree?
