Levelling up is necessary for everyone. If there’s one thing that the pandemic taught us; things can change at any time and having a large skill set or knowledge about numerous things can come in handy. Here are some free online courses that will help you upgrade your life.
2020 is definitely one for the books. From the pandemic to the protests against racism, it has been an activity-filled year. It’s ironic that people couldn’t do anything, and yet are doing all the important things. Whilst many people have lost their jobs, this period has been an eye-opener for so many people regarding their lifestyle and career. It has made them consider improving the quality of their life.
These online courses for women will help you level up. With this knowledge, hard work and determination (aka the mamba mentality) you are bound to glow in all aspects of your life. If you’d prefer books, you can read these girl boss books that will inspire you. See the wonderful online courses that are free you can study online at your own pace below.
Feminism and Social Justice
My favourite definition of feminism is that by distinguished author, Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie. Her definition was also adopted by Beyoncé. “Feminist: a person who believes in the social, political and economic equality of the sexes.” In today’s world, we should all be feminists.
