I was raised by a single dad. As he tells it, he saw that all these other people were applying to law school who were no smarter than him, and he thought, Why not me? And he went for it. This question has become a mantra in my life and a movement in my work.

Melanie Galle

On December 29, 2019, Melanie Bean Galle, co-Founder and COO of DirectHERy, shared the story behind her title with us.

Melanie Galle’s mantra and question, “Why not me” has been around for quite a while, but when we heard her describe it, it felt different. It validated our own belief that if we are all one-of-a-kind, than any single person can take on a new venture with a different outcome. She is doing just that with her new role, and we are eagerly cheering her on!
