There was no active, conscious decision-making point, just a gradual realization over time that I'm very happy minus children and marriage.

When I give talks like the one I'm going to give at the Changing Advertising Summit, one of the points I often make to the audience is that I'm not one of those speakers who stands in front of the audience and pontificates - everything I talk about I'm actually doing myself. I'm living it.

Anyone who has worked with me knows that I am extremely action-oriented. I'm all about making things happen.

I deplore the shying away that can go on, within women, from the term 'feminist.' I am, absolutely, all about being a feminist.

I consider myself a rampant feminist.

When we launched If WeRanTheWorld, I said to my team, I want us to innovate in every aspect of how we design and operate this as a business venture, as much as the web platform itself - because I want us to design our own startup around the working lives that we would all like to live. Women and men alike.

The single largest pool of untapped resource in this world is human good intentions that never translate into action.
