Some quick research into any of these women is an inspiring experience and it has most definitely been one of the most motivating, eye-opening and exciting pieces of research I have ever done. It was so joyous to spend hours uncovering these amazing women from history and discovering the breadth and scope of their achievements.
Thanks to all who suggested women to include and set me on this wonderful journey of discovery.
