Every successful person has a backlog of failed attempts that we can all relate with. Growing up you were sold the idea of a universal time frame and successful landmarks you ought to fashion your timing with but through the years, we’ve seen people distort these falsities and still break grounds at any age. Taraji P. Henson is one of such examples.
At 46 years old, the actress won her first Golden Globes Award for the Best Actress in the Television Series Drama category and started getting recognition internationally after her role as Cookie Lyon – the strong and Independent female lead character – in the TV show, Empire.
Henson is our Woman Crush Wednesday because her underdog story reminds us that no matter how challenging life gets, if we stay the course and are resilient, we can achieve success.
