Formal education doesn’t work for everyone. Not everyone is going to be a CEO. Not everyone wants to be a CEO. Some people want to be mechanics, carpenters, or something else. “But Wilderness, didn’t you go to college?” Yes. I went to business school. It was mostly a waste of my time and my scholarship money. I went to college as a favor to my mom. It was important to her I have a college degree. I have learned far better how to run a business, by actually running a business. Sometimes I wish I’d gone to welding school. Or farrier school. Sometimes I wish I’d gone to vocational school and learned a trade. I discovered antiques by chance, and I can’t see myself doing anything else! It’s my goal to be an inspiration to others! I want to inspire others to go for their dreams! Because your life is too important, and too valuable to live a mediocre existence. So, who’s with me?! #portrait #portraitphotography #portraitperfection #photoshoot #photography #portraitmood #makeportraits #canonportrait #portrait_perfection #portraitshots #moodyportraits #portraiturephotography #portrait_shots #portraitshots #peopleportraits #portraitsofwomen #businesswomen #businesswoman #smallbusiness #smallbusinessowner #ownbusiness #womenbosses #supportwomeninbusiness #womanownedbusiness #womenownedbusiness #smallbizlife (at Shelbyville, Kentucky) https://www.instagram.com/p/Bsf7HCXHMle/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=c0j7w7lnpooz

This week, we’re taking a look at the life of Margaret Fuller for Women’s History Month. 

After reading her way through her father's library as a child in Massachusetts, Margaret Fuller studied classical and European languages as well as philosophy in Cambridge. There she quickly became the precocious youngest member of Boston's intelligentsia, befriending philosopher Ralph Waldo Emerson, journalist Harriet Martineau, and educator Bronson Alcott, who offered her a teaching position at the progressive Temple School. 

Once Margaret Fuller joined their ranks, the formerly loose-knit group of free-thinking Bostonians formed the Transcendentalist movement. Unlike the proponents of a doctrinal philosophy or religion, Transcendentalists advocated "a free life of the free spirit" and sought to achieve understanding and personal growth through their frequent "Conversations," in which Margaret Fuller, an energetic, insightful speaker, played a key role. She hosted several series of single-sex Conversations to offer the women of her circle an opportunity to discuss such topics as education, religion, women's rights, health, and art. 

In 1840 she published, with Emerson and others, the first issue of the Transcendentalist magazine the Dial, and she contributed artistic and social criticism regularly to both her own paper and to Horace Greeley's New-York Daily Tribune.
