Martha Graeff, Co-Founder of The Bazaar For Good

Who or what inspires you to do so? 
Women have always been my inspiration. The Veronicas are a great example of what women together are able to achieve. I love the expression “movers and shakers” because when we use our power to do amazing things, we are able to shake the entire universe.

Advice to others to make it happen? 
Don’t give up, keep going, and know that every person who made things happen also made mistakes.

Jenny Lopez, Influencer & Entrepreneur

DEBUG: cgb/block-vb-two-column

What does #MAKEITHAPPEN mean to you? 
It means to generate, to create, and to keep moving forward. It means to throw yourself in the ocean and keep swimming no matter what. It means to always have a solution instead of a complaint.

Your must-haves to make it happen? 
Positive energy and a good mood, a strong team to delegate and not get overwhelmed, notes of things that need to get done, and an organized calendar. Be kind and ask for things politely—it always works to get the best out of people.

Richa Moorjani, Actress

DEBUG: cgb/block-vb-two-column

Best advice received… 
Make your work be about something bigger than yourself. When you come from the intention of being of service, your work and actions will almost always be received better and the “results” or outcome become far less important.

DEBUG: cgb/block-vb-two-column

What does #MAKEITHAPPEN mean to you? 
RF: It’s about seizing opportunities and unapologetically driving to reach your goals. It’s also the art of multitasking, which is a value that, in my opinion, should never be underestimated. 


3 must-haves… 
KK:  
1. Set goals—what do you want to achieve each day, week, and month.   
2. Education—educate yourself on the things you don’t know.

Tina Wells, Author, Business Strategist & Advisor

DEBUG: cgb/block-vb-two-column

What does #MAKEITHAPPEN mean to you? 
First, it represents what women do every day. We always #MAKEITHAPPEN. To me, it means utilizing every resource available to you to do the best that you can with what you have.


On work-life balance… 
I don’t believe in balance. I don’t think that’s something we can ever achieve, and yet women are always asked to find balance. I believe we can create a harmonious life where family and friends and work mix in the most delightful way.

What does being a leader mean to you? 
For me, leadership is about recognizing what we have to offer others and being open to receiving what others have to offer us.  I believe that what makes for good leadership is to be a person in a position of authority or influence who uses one’s power to be in service to others.
