Tomi Lahren Is The Role Model American Women Don't Want To Admit We Need

I am all for having strong, outspoken, real, and opinionated women getting what they want, and not giving a damn what anyone else thinks.

If you have watched the news or read a paper at any time within the past year, then I'm sure you know who Tomi Lahren is. If you don’t know who she is, Tomi Lahren is an American conservative political commentator and former television host currently working for Great America Alliance, an advocacy organization that supports President Donald Trump.

She is best known for hosting Tomi on TheBlaze. Why am I telling you about this you ask? Well because regardless of your political party, Tomi Lahren is someone who should be considered a role model.

Since the 2016 political election, everything leading up to it, and after, women’s rights have been a very sensitive topic among both political parties. The argument right now is that woman are not equal to men, we are underpaid and underappreciated. People are saying that now is the time for women to stand up and assert our presence.

It’s not that I don’t agree with all of those things, but I believe that we already have a great deal of a strong female presence representing us; I just think that woman pick and choose who those “role models” should be based on political parties.

I personally think that Tomi Lahren is one of those women who is overlooked and under-appreciated by the female population because she supports President Donald Trump. But again, regardless of your political party, Tomi Lahren is someone who little girls should be looking up to and told about.

Tomi graduated from the University of Nevada, Las Vegas with a B.A. in broadcast journalism and political science in 2014. Lahren interned for Republican Congresswoman Kristi Noem - serving as the first intern for Noem's Rapid City office, hosted her own show called Tomi on TheBlaze, and currently working for Great America Alliance, all while only being 25 years old.

If you’ve ever watched her on TV, then you know she's outspoken, sticks up for herself, is strong in her beliefs and is a strong, independent woman. And I don’t know about you, but she's the type of woman who I would love my future daughter to admire. She works in a field that as we all know is very male-dominated and has still made a name for herself and is well respected. If she wasn’t, you wouldn't be seeing her on TV still.

The world right now is in a weird place. It's like we are ALL fighting to figure who we are and who we want to be. Sometimes I think as women we forget to stand by exactly what you were marching for a few months ago - equality and the building up of a woman and our inner strength.

Why then do we tear down the woman who is doing exactly what you march for, just because they support someone that you don't? Tomi Lauren embodies everything that you marched for.

Working towards equality- working in a male-dominated field.

Strength- Having the power to express herself as a woman, freely and without regret.

Tomi is the perfect role model for all little girls who dream of really being able to do whatever they want when they grow up. Tomi represents all woman whether you like it or not, and I am all for having strong, outspoken, REAL, and opinionated women getting what they want, and not giving a damn what anyone else thinks. Aren’t you?

So let us all be reminded to ACTUALLY build up all woman for doing what they want and kicking ass REGARDLESS of political party. Because really, Tomi is doing everything you all want women to be doing, and kicking ass at it.

I raise a glass to you, Tomi. I admire everything you do for the advancement of women while staying classy and sticking to everything you stand for. I could only hope that one day, we as females can learn to appreciate ALL women, no matter what they believe in or do with their lives.

Laurel Thatcher Ulrich once said, “Well-behaved women seldom make history.” Tomi Lahren is ONE of those women. Keep doing you girl, keep doing you.

11 Things Summer Nannies Can Relate To

As a college student, being a nanny over the summer is both enjoyable and challenging. Underneath the seemingly perfect trips to the pool or countless hours spent playing Monopoly are the obstacles that only nannies will understand. Trading in your valuable summer vacation in return for three months spent with a few children less than half your age may seem unappealing, but so many moments make it rewarding. For my fellow summer nannies out there, I know you can relate.

If it hurts now, it'll hurt again. Not because you're gullible or naive, only because you fall fast, hard, and you do it every time.

We fall each and every time with the complete and utter confidence that someone will be there to catch us. Now that person we SWORE we were never going to fall for has our hearts, and every time we see them our palms start sweating. The butterflies in our stomach start to soar and our hearts are entirely too close to bursting out of our chests.

Growing up I have always wanted to own a horse. My grandparents own a well known equestrian facility in Georgia, so I have been riding since I was born. A bond between a person and their horse is a bond so strong that it cannot be broken. Everywhere I went I wanted to be around horses, even forcing my family to go on trail rides during vacations.

College is super hard. Between working, studying, and having a social life, it feels like a struggle to just keep afloat.

I understand. When you feel like your drowning and there's no way to stay afloat I understand that it feels like everyone else is doing just fine. I understand all the frustration, long nights in the library, and that feeling that you want to just throw in the towel. I understand that sometimes it's too hard to get out of bed because your brain is already filled with too much information to remember. I understand because I am also feeling pretty burnt out.

No Matter How Challenging School Gets, You Have To Put Your Health First — A Degree Won't Mean Anything If You're Dead

Some of the best advice I've ever received was from my social studies teacher in sophomore year of high school. He stated, "If you don't know it at midnight, you're not going to know it for the 8 a.m. exam, so get some sleep."

It's such a simple piece of advice, but it holds so much accuracy and it's something that the majority of college students need to hear and listen to. "All-nighters" are a commonality on college campuses in order to cram in studying for an exam that is typically the next day.
