The Amazing Women Series The Amazing Women series from the Amazing People Club offers inspiration and a new way to celebrate women around the world.” Today, more and more women become doctors, politicians, entrepreneurs, scientists, financial advisers, and take on other roles outside the home. This, of course, has certainly not always been the case. The women in our ‘Club’ were trailblazers. Their stories are a source of inspiration and are revealed through our BioView format. Each story is a biography – a virtual interview – reflecting the life story of an amazing person. It offers an interesting and easy way to learn from those who have made major contributions to our world. Discover how these amazing women lived, loved and worked in their own distinct ways. We can learn key lessons from each one of them. In particular, their achievements were a result of their determination to continue on, regardless of how difficult the journey. They believed in what they had to offer, and used their time well. Here is a snippet from one of them:-
Florence Nightingale
1820–1910
From the age of 17, I knew my destiny lay with many men
I said ‘no’ to the proposals of marriage that I received
I felt strongly that my role in life was to help others
Beyond my education in Latin, Greek, German, French and Italian
My first name came from the city of Florence in Italy
That is where I was born
My parents came from a well endowed English family
In 1837, “God spoke to me and called me to his service”
They were disappointed and upset when I chose to be a nurse.
