This is a great list of women, and I also follow most of them. Michelle Monet gets my especially high regard because she reached out to me when she noticed I was off of Medium and I was able to tell her all about how I’d suffered a recent manic episode and had only now that I’m in my 40s been finally diagnosed with PTSD and bipolar disorder. She was extremely supportive and was one of few people I talked to as I spiralled from the heights of mania down to depression.

I love reading all your stuff as well as all the mentioned women. I know it takes a lot more balls to be a ballsy woman than to be a ballsy man.
