This is Aggie's story of growing up in a staunch Irish Catholic family, attending 12 years of Catholic school, joining the convent at 17 years of age, as a teacher-nun for 14 years, and eventually an entrepreneur preparing her to fight the battles for women’s equality. Your journey may be different. Whatever it has been, it influences who you are today and what you can accomplish when your voice is heard. Aggie Jordan’s journey from nun to feminist tells her stories of what influenced her to become a nun and her metamorphosis into a businesswoman who fought for women’s equality. Her history can teach us how we might progress and win the battles that continue today. Women who work inside or outside the home, women entrepreneurs, and women raising children seek inspiration, hope, and encouragement. She hopes this book will enrich their spirits to continue the fight for equality. The book shouts out to women how important their women friends are, how women mentors can be the springboard to success, and most of all, using their voices to be heard in facing their futures. Here’s hoping these stories encourage you to become visible in your journey by making sure your voice is heard.
