For this week's Ted Talk Tuesday, we wanted to find one that captured some of the feeling Ming described from her work, feeling like her "mind is abuzz with all the amazing ideas that we are a part of." Kelli Anderson's talk, Design to Challenge Reality, fits the bill... 

Before Ming Thompson became an architect, she was making doll, toys, and gadgets from the craft supplies she kept in tackle boxes and sewing tote bags in her high school dorm room. She now co-owns a design firm, Atelier Cho Thompson, which takes a holistic approach to design that includes not just architecture and interiors, but also installations, furniture, graphic design, and brand strategy.

I read a bunch of things this week that got Destiny's Child's early 2000's song/Charlie's Angels tie-in Independent Women stuck in my head...

The women we've interviewed have recommended over 150 books on all kinds of topics: Kids books, fiction classics, sci-fi, biography, humor, science, business, YA, mysteries. But a handful of books came up more than once. Here are the most popular books, and what people love about them.
