Here's the story of how over two weeks, a "nobody" went from 10 to 100 to 10,000 followers on Instagram, having two fan pages, and a social media stalker.

And I'm not proud to admit that the story is about my nine-year-old daughter.

It's not often that you see a former U.S. Ambassador, major Hollywood producer and high-powered TV journalist intimidated. Was it a head of state? An internet mogul? A rock legend who made these women feel daunted? No. It was a group of unassuming teenage girls who had come for dinner.

As someone who was raised by a staunch feminist who would literally turn in her grave at the title, I know I'll risk my invite to the Women's Conference with this piece, but look, I'm beginning to wonder.
