What Elle Woods and Beth Dutton Taught Me About Being a Woman

What can a bubbly law student in pink and the fierce daughter of a Montana ranch possibly have in common? More than you might think. In this reflection, I explore why Elle Woods and Beth Dutton have become two of my favourite fictional women, and the unexpected lessons they both teach about authenticity, courage, boundaries, and refusing to shrink to fit other people's expectations. Their journeys may look completely different, but together they reveal that there is no single way to be a strong woman.
