beaming during her confirmation hearings. In his caption, he said he would use the image to tell his 17-year-old daughter, Leah Dean, what Jackson looked like during the most important interview of her life.“I wanted to capture that moment to let her know that as a woman, you will be in situations where, even though you deserve to be there, you will not be wanted,” said Clifton, an author who is based in Sacramento. “In those moments, you will have an opportunity to show why you belong.
That’s been the case for 32-year-old mom Tanika Saint Amand, who has gradually introduced her daughter Zola to children’s books and daily affirmations that she hopes will help her understand her self-worth as she grows older. “It was kind of like she was speaking to me, because I know what that balance is like to have to be fully there for your children and then want to be fully there for your career, and some days feeling like you’re missing the mark,” said Johnson, who has a 7-year-old daughter named Joey. “But you keep pressing on because you know that you’re doing it for a reason. And those are the things that, as a mother, you hope that your children see in you.”Turner, of Hollins University, agreed.
