When radio personality and life coach,
Traci S. Campbell became fed up with the ways she saw women portrayed in
contemporary media she couldn't remain silent. Campbell, an IT Professional,
began searching and cataloging images of strong "positive" female
role models who exemplified excellence in today's media.
"Most of the "role models"
I found were female actresses, models, musicians and socialites who did not
always take responsibility for the strength of their influence, some did not
even care that they have a responsibility," explains Campbell.
"I became more and more concerned for
our young women "coming of age" in our modern, media-driven society
and I began collecting research and quickly realized that the majority of young
women are looking up to negative "role models", so I had to
act".
Campbell created "The Beauty In
Beauty Out Tour", to "honor the best and brightest in female
leadership" across our country, women who Campbell calls "the real
s-heros out there in the trenches working hard in our communities".
"We want to touch the lives of 50,000
women to hopefully counteract the negative images that already exist with
positive images of women working hard in our communities making a difference,
these are the real "reality stars" who we should be looking to,"
she explains.
Every woman nominated for the tour's
awards, "A Woman's Work" or "C.H.A.M.P. Within (Youth
Award)" will automatically become a sponsored guest of the tour and
invited to a day of inspirational workshops, leadership training, networking,
beauty and spa treatments, pampering, and each will be honored for their
special achievements.
"This will be a life-changing event
for many of these women who will cherished this experience for years to come
and they deserve to," says Campbell.
