Austin, Indiana HIV Epidemic

This isn't inspiring but I did find it very interesting! It explains how an interdisciplinary group is working on solving a very serious health problem that is rooted with deeper social issues.

This would be a really interesting career and definitely something that we as Sociologists would be able to contribute to.

Beesweet Lemonade!

I found this to be inspiring because this little girl is on 11 years old and is a young entrepreneur. She has created a new brand of lemonade called "Beesweet Lemonade". She was on the hit TV show Shark Tank when she landed her big break. Mikaila has taken the old school lemonade stand to the next level! Today, the award-winning BeeSweet Lemonade is buzzing off the shelves of Whole Foods Market, the world’s leader in natural and organic foods, and available at a growing number of restaurants, food trailers and natural food delivery companies. I feel like since she can do something so big at 11, there is no reason why I cannot start working on a hair product of my own.
