20 wonderful women who inspire us in 2020

The task has not been easy. This selection of 20 inspiring women is just the tip of the iceberg. All women, and people, have qualities that others can admire. The strength of your mother, the sense of humor of your best friend, the sensitivity of your sister, the creativity of your boss, or even the greeting of the girl who serves you your morning coffee. Life is made up of flashes of genius that you have to know how to see and take advantage of at every moment. In fact, we propose an exercise: make a list of the little things that those who you admire do and make you feel good. And of course, if you can, tell them later.

This is the exercise we have done to select these 20 women who inspire us in one way or another. Some are better known than others, but they all have one thing in common: they are good at what they do because they are worth it and because they give everything they are passionate about. Do you want to know them?

Rosalia

There is nothing more inspiring than a hit as gigantic as Rosalía's. The Spanish singer has made music history by winning an International Grammy for Best Latin Album. Is there someone left whom you have not conquered with your music, strength, style and personality?

Rachel Corcoles

His face may not be familiar to you, but his alter ego @modernadepueblo sure does. Raquel has been giving voice to new concepts of modern feminine life for almost more than a decade through her cartoons. With her we have learned what it is to puttivuelta, posture or the clitoral sucker. In 2019 we can give him part of the credit for getting almost all women (we hope!) Already know the benefits of this popular sucker.

Inma Bermúdez

If you have an IKEA washbasin cabinet, it is likely that Inma designed it, since her LILLANGEN is one of the best sellers. The Spanish industrial designer who triumphs at IKEA has been commissioned to create the MUSSELBLOMMA collection, with which the Swedish giant contributes its bit to achieve a more sustainable world. It is the first IKEA collection made from plastics collected in the Mediterranean Sea.

Patricia del valle

Patricia has been awarded the EDUCA Abanca award for the Best Teacher of the Infant Stage in 2019. An award given by the parents themselves. Empathy, emotions and respect are the values that this teacher from the Community of Madrid tries to instill in her students, they are the values that should cement society. And she does it through play. How important are the first years of people's lives for the future to come. And Patricia knows it.

Elísabet Benavent

Because there is nothing that empowers a woman more than to have fun, enjoy and feel sensual. That is what the wonderful novels of the writer Elísabet Benavent, better known as @betacoqueta in networks, achieve. This year Netflix premieres the Valeria series, based on one of its most popular sagas. In addition, he has just published A Perfect Story , his new novel, just as addictive as the previous ones.

Leticia dolera

For a few years now, the actress, director, screenwriter and writer Leticia has been a speaker of feminism that makes the rest of women (and men) reflect on equality issues. His book Biting the Apple serves to begin to get out of the comfort zone of not thinking. In addition, this year Leticia has triumphed with the Perfect Life series .

Rebeca Atencia

We are before a defender of nature and, by extension, of humanity. Rebeca Atencia is a veterinarian and director of the Jane Goodall Institute in Congo. She and her center rescue poached chimpanzees, one of the most human-like species. And we are not only influenced by CLARA, the American magazine Newsweek considers her one of the 20 women who will inspire us the most in the future.

Cristina Miter

A disseminator of knowledge in capital letters. Cristina is a journalist and author of the website The Beauty Mail. In her podcast, one of the most listened to in Spain, we learn every week about cosmetics, beauty, nutrition, fitness and well-being. Cristina explains things as if she were doing it to a good friend, that's what we like the most. She is the promoter of Women Who Run, a movement that aims to promote exercise among women. His phrase "There is no research to prove that wearing lipstick lowers your IQ" totally represents us.

Marta Melee

Each year, the L'Oréal-Unesco For Women in Science program rewards women under the age of 40 who research some of humanity's great scientific challenges. Dr. Marta Melé, a researcher at the National Center for Supercomputing, has been one of the winners for analyzing the variations in genes between people and their implications in diseases such as breast cancer. The goal is to find specific biomarkers that help advance breast cancer prevention.

Patry jordan

With more than 16 million followers, Patry Jordan generates social media content that helps improve practically every aspect of your life in a very positive way.

Carme chaparro

Whether in the media in which she collaborates or through her social networks, journalist Carme Chaparro speaks acutely about the issues that most affect us women. In 2019, she published the book Calladita eres más bellapa and this year she will present the second season of the documentary series Mujeres al poder , which gives voice to female empowerment through great stories.

Beatriz Luengo

We love Beatriz Luengo's music, but in 2019 we have discovered her facet as a writer, since she has published the fantastic book The Awakening of the Muses , a work in which she gives voice to 12 extraordinary women whose stories have been silenced or have not had the recognition they deserved. Look at the interview we did with him.

Anna Boldú

Anna is the CEO and co-founder of the online store Platanomelón. We are living a redefinition of sexuality and in Platanomelón they know it. Enjoying is no longer something dark like the old sex shops. And this is what Anna Boldú has done with Platanomelón. Empower women through their sex toys. It goes beyond selling, it is about educating in sex. It has a team of sexologists who attend to inquiries.

Marian Garcia

We thank the rural pharmacist Marián García –Doctor in Pharmacy and nutritionist–, or rather, @boticariagarcia, because she always liked to write and explain herself. With an engaging humor, La Boti teaches us, among other things, to eat better or to interpret the current health emergency.

Gema Aznar

Beyond the frivolous image of cosmetics and beauty in general, there are firms and businesswomen that promote women's self-esteem and solidarity between them. Gema Aznar is the Managing Director of Mary Kay Spain. Mary Kay's philosophy is inspiring: women can go as far as they want and has shown it by building a company that helps women take control of their futures.

Judit Mascó

She has just turned 50, splendid, and she does so by stating that her success is not only her spectacular modeling career, but also having managed to combine it with her family and personal life. Bravo. She likes her birthday because that means she is alive and there are many experiences to live. Always linked to solidarity causes, her latest collaboration has been with Oxfam Intermón, promoting a collection of fair trade ecological and organic cotton garments.

Julia Otero

Julia's is a voice that is sure to accompany you or has accompanied you at some point in your life. With an impeccable career in radio, television and written press, he is a benchmark in Spanish journalism. For more than ten years she has led the evening radio program Julia en la Onda, in Onda Cero, from which she reflects, without mincing her tongue, on the issues that most concern women and society in general. As she says, getting involved means making enemies.

Esther Czech

Documentalist and journalist completely transformed into the digital world, Esther is one of the greatest experts in web positioning in Spain. She, along with other women, is part of #WomenInTechSpain, an initiative that aims to promote greater female leadership in the top management and boards of digital companies. Few women are in senior positions in companies, and projects like this drive needed change.

Elisabet Silvestre

Doctor in Biology and Biohabitability expert, Elisabet is one of the great specialists in environmental health in Spain and one of the pioneers in putting the focus on environmental toxins.
