Pour yourself another cup of coffee and meet your new career inspiration.

Mad Men's Joan Holloway and Peggy Olson have had their fair shares of set backs in life, love and especially in their career paths. But while working in the ultimate "man's world" at Sterling Cooper & Partners, these two trailblazers have found ways to get ahead.
