You Go Jennifer Lawrence- Girls, Know and Stand-up for What You’re Worth

Jennifer Lawrence, Hollywood’s highest paid female actress still doesn’t make as much as her male counterparts. And she’s pissed. But who she is pissed at may surprise you. She’s mad at herself.

You can see more on the story that aired on NBC Nightly News last week here:

Kudos to Jennifer. When we can take ownership of the issues that affect us personally, then we are on our way to fixing them. Blaming others doesn’t help the situation.

Women (and men) knowing what they are worth is a critical step in that ownership, then being willing and able to negotiate for that worth is vital. Jennifer knows now what the going rate is for her leading roles and is ready to negotiate for the next leading role that will surely come her way.
