Hey, Lady: Do you want to supercharge the ＂Heroine’s Journey＂ that is your life? Well, guess what? The spiritual and emotional rocket fuel you need can be found inside your family photo archive. It’s true: Tucked away in that faded shoebox or dusty storage bin are the long-forgotten keys to your Queendom. By starting a ＂Thanks to Her＂ project of your own creation, you can pay homage to the gals who helped define early 20th century America.

Whether they were feeding chickens, working in factories, serving in the military, or making peanut-butter-and-jelly sandwiches, these ladies moved mountains. In essence, they paved the way for us all. And you’re related to them! How awesome is that? You’ll find that digging into your family’s photographic archive is part history lesson, part fashion show, part laugh riot. ＂Thanks to Her＂ will help you tap into the collective strength of our foremothers, use it to amp up your own life and kick your malaise to the curb. Remember: Yes, she did. And so can you!
