Welcome to The Daily Quote, a podcast designed to kickstart your day in a positive way. I'm your host, Andrew McGivern, and I'm happy you are here with me today.
Today is National Women Road Warriors Day—a day to celebrate the incredible women who are blazing trails, not just in their careers but across highways, airports, and boardrooms. These women are the ultimate multitaskers, juggling business calls and hotel bookings like pros, all while keeping their eyes on the road.
In the spirit of today's holiday, I’ve got a quote from one such woman who knows all about overcoming obstacles with a bit of humor and a lot of determination. It’s from Sara Blakely, the founder of Spanx. She once said:
"If we can put a man on the moon, we can make pantyhose comfortable."
Now, there’s a road warrior mindset if I’ve ever heard one. Sara Blakely’s journey to success started with her battling one frustrating product—pantyhose.
She was driving all over the country, working as a door-to-door salesperson, when she had her breakthrough. It wasn’t about how impossible something seemed, it was about what’s possible if you’re persistent and have a little faith in yourself and a mission to change the world one butt at a time.
Whether you’re navigating back-to-back meetings in different cities or trying to juggle the pressures of work and life, the road warriors out there know that if something can be solved, it should be. It just needs a bit of innovation and a lot of resilience.
And, hey, if NASA can get a man to the moon, surely we can tackle whatever obstacles the day throws our way, right? On this National Women Road Warriors Day, Blakely’s quote is a reminder to keep pushing forward, no matter how uncomfortable the situation.
The path to success is full of twists, turns, and maybe some uncomfortable moments, but with a little ingenuity and perseverance, there’s nothing you can’t achieve—even if it’s just finding a way to make your customers a little more comfortable.
So, whether you’re cruising down the highway or hustling through the airport, remember: if Sara Blakely can make pantyhose comfortable, and build a billion dollar company by hitting the road, you can conquer whatever’s on your agenda today too. Thanks for joining me today. Set your podcast app to "follow" this show and I’ll see you back here tomorrow for another Daily Quote.
