Pretty Powerful: Appearance, Substance, and Success Audiobook (Free)

Women have been told that getting pretty comes in the expense to be taken significantly. If a woman is physically attractive, there is often a presumption that she does not have the material and smarts necessary to provide leadership in business and other efforts.

This narrative implies that getting pretty and being capable are mutually exclusive. However in Pretty Effective, Fox News politics commentator and legal analyst Eboni Williams rejects that narrative. She says that to simply accept the false notion that beauty and power are mutually exceptional is to keep an incredibly powerful tool on the table.

According to Williams, the knee-jerk reaction for some women is to experience shamed from the potential benefit their beauty grants them, but Williams says it’s alright for ladies to take full advantage of the most immediate and obvious attribute at their disposal, stimulating women to embrace their beauty as positive and powerful.
