Book Description
Kristen was in the best shape of her life. She just returned from coaching at the state championships for track and field, where she watched athletes she trained, coached, and mentally prepared medal and run their best times individually and set marks higher than before. To unwind, once home, she decided to go on a nice, long run and stretch her legs out from all the travel. But halfway through the run, something went terribly wrong. Her right arm start feeling tingly and cold. She continued run through it, but her symptoms persisted to get worse. Within minutes, her arm was white, and she could feel the fingers on her right hand going numb. She knew that she needed to find her car right away. She took short cuts through the woods, and by then her entire forearm had turned a bluish color. She decided she needed to get her to the hospital right away, because her hand was numb. She knew she couldn’t drive, so she called her mother to pick her up. As soon as her mother saw her arm, she knew something was wrong and motioned her to keep her arm above her heart. Once arriving at the ER, she was taken back to the examining room immediately. She had to have various imaging studies done. It showed that Kristen was getting no blood flow from her subclavian vein in her neck to her arm at all. They ran dye thru her veins to assess the problem, and they had their answer: a massive blood clot. This answer would be the eye of the storm and the start to Kristen’s self-discovery and strength to overcome more difficulty than she would ever think possible. But this was just the beginning of her eight-year medical journey that still leaves many questions.

The Business of Women's Empowerment
Author: Sofie Tornhill
Publisher: Rowman & Littlefield
ISBN: 1786601605
Category : Political Science
Languages : en
Pages : 188
Book Description
With catchphrases like “smart economics” and “the business case for gender equality,” global corporations are increasingly involved in gender and development politics in the Global South. This book focuses on an emblematic example of this tendency to interrogate the proposed win-win relationship between corporate profit opportunities and the economic advancement of women in marginalized economic positions. The Coca-Cola Company’s 5by20 program has won broad recognition for its global reach and ambitious goal: to economically empower five million female micro-entrepreneurs across its supply chain before the end of 2020. Based on situated engagements with program implementers and participants in Mexico and South Africa, the study moves beyond the unequivocally positive effects conveyed by the program’s rhetoric. It examines the appropriation of social values to strengthen the brand; the use of self-help psychology to enhance entrepreneurial conduct and exempt weak economic results; and the recasting of women’s precarious labor in terms of entrepreneurship – which conceals structural causes of poverty and impediments of sustainable business development. Providing unique insights into the premises and effects of corporate solutions to gender inequality in the Global South, the book contributes to debates on the relations between neoliberal capitalist expansion and feminist emancipatory endeavors.
