We were excited to honor Morgan Stanley Vice Chairman Carla Harris with the Womensphere Global Leadership Award for her powerful and creative vision, her longstanding commitment to empowering women and youth of color, and more than a dozen other great reasons. We were happy to bring together ground-breaking innovators, executives, educators, artists, and leaders creating change for women around the world – to launch some very important initiatives.

“Motivation From Within…Leveraging Your Power,” will show you how anyone can rise up from severe circumstances and be the person they were destined to be.
As you read this book you will be motivated to unpeel yourself from the inside out and step outside of the walls of your comfort zone.
Remember when you were a child you would imagine yourself being what was in your heart. You saw yourself laughing, talking and planning all though the images you created in your mind, but what happened?
What caused those precious ideas to drift back behind the curtains of your soul? Have you ever thought what it would be like to accomplish your desires and follow those dreams?
Tap into that slight gleam of hope buried on the inside of you and push your way through the clutter. Whatever dysfunctional atmosphere that shadows you under its cloud will have to release you.
Remember, when things seem the darkest in your life, know this, these are the keys which stirs you to greatness.
