This is the part where we turn to Youtube and search up, "Who Runs The World". As the video loads, we mentally and physically prepare ourselves to be slayed not only by Bey's presence but also by the messages of women empowerment throughout the 4 minutes and 50 seconds of the song. Whether she is a CEO, non-profit organizer, designer, health enthusiast or mental health advocate, she is more than just a pretty face, she's a girl boss!

The term "boss" it is often viewed negatively when paired with the female gender, since the assumption is, "she must be a bitch". Ummm, no. This is 2017, people! Please drop these assumptions and better yet, make it a part of your new years resolution. A girl boss is a woman who is not afraid to chase her dreams, isn't afraid to make mistakes, is passionate and loves the term "hustle." We want to shine a light on a few girl bosses in the city who to this day, continue to work hard when it comes to their vision and have no problem sharing their journey with others as well provide words of encouragement. Don't worry ladies, we see you!
