Introduction: Dear Madam President : chart your own path -- The day after : when the unimaginable happens, imagine what else may be possible -- Move forward, draw fire : brace yourself: nothing draws fire like a woman moving forward -- In the room : speak up--your voice is needed -- Nod less, cry more : it's your world and you can cry if you want to -- Keep your head (and your heart) during a storm : you need both to steer the ship to safety -- Embrace your battle scars : show us what you have been through. It tells us what we can survive -- Her story : don't search for your role in his story--write your own -- Undefeated : even when you lose, refuse to be defeated -- Bound together : we are bound together. Now we need to unite.
