		<description>Yes, Mary should be indoctrinated into the hall of fame! Love, love, love her!!! She is a true story of redemption and definitely an alphanista.</description>

		<description>Maryann, this is one kick-ass blog! Seriously, your e-book and the blog have me in DEEP thought. I love Mary Jay Blige, and was ever more proud of her because of how she has handled herself--honoring her womanhood, embracing her man, while still sounding and looking fierce! Absolutely and without a doubt Queen Mary is an Alphanista!</description>

		<description>I second that motion.  It doesn&#039;t matter whether she&#039;d be where she is without her team, the fact is none of us can attribute our success to just ourselves.  We have to know which people to keep around us and which to let go.  You don&#039;t have to be the smartest person or the best person but you have to know how to surround yourself with people that ARE smart and ARE the best in THEIR field.  Making an intelligent person believe in your dream and your mission and desire for success is definitely ALPHA!</description>

		<description>I think Mary is definitely an Alpha Female. I&#039;m glad you said that Alpha Females go through adversity but end up on top; people are not perfect. I think some people don&#039;t know how hard it is to come up out of the learned helplessness and other negative conditioning from the environment Mary as well as myself has grown up in.  I think when Mary surrendered to her Christianity, she became a critical thinker and started plotting out her course in life and became the Queen of her own Destiny; becoming a role model for other females of color in the industry.
So, I lift up a glass of champagne to Mary, I&#039;m proud of you.

Once again, another wonderful blog.</description>
