Pursue education in policy, law and, politics. Perhaps volunteer in some city office or attaining a position for the city. Perhaps becoming an Alderman. Study other female Mayor successes not know of any but I do know of City Managers that are female.
Role Model
Dorthy Brown: She has fought her way through city politics and has a similar educational background as I have.

Exercise 2
My type is INFJ and I am amazed at how on point I was described. The Protector- wow every since I was a kid I found myself protecting or trying to protect others. Especially if I thought they were being bullied. I like to believe I am rare as outlined because oftentimes my thoughts don;t line up with the way others view situations. I could never have said these things about myself but my God they were on point.

I loved creativity through art, drawing, painting, and painting. I loved dancing and was pretty good at it. I daydreamed about doing something big in life. I dreamed up being very popular and powerful. Never knew what it would be but I knew I would somehow inspire others.
My secret dreams were to be Miss America, a super mode, and to travel to another state and be a "secret (mysterious) exotic dancer". To this day I still enjoy the arts and entertainment. Talents and abilities allowed me to escape my environment.
