Here's to Honoring All The Women in Our Lives!

“Without community, there is no liberation…but community must not mean a shedding of our differences, nor the pathetic pretense that these differences do not exist.” - Audre Lorde

Happy #IWD2022 and in honor of this year's theme #BreakTheBias

Here’s to honoring the fierce vulnerability that we show in our lives - in the ways that we live, love, be, and do.

Here’s to honoring all our stories of losses, victories, and everything in between.

Here’s to honoring all the ways that we have learned to pivot over the past few years with all that life keeps serving to us.

Here’s to honoring the lessons that we are learning, sharing, and those that we are learning to sit with or leave because they don't quite fit.

Here’s to the ways that we have come to recognize that we can be masterpieces and works in progress at the same time.

Here’s to learning and engaging in self-care and community care, and knowing when to use which tool.

Here’s to taking up space, and knowing when to walk away from things that no longer serve us.

Here’s to honoring our intersectionalities as we continue to rock our worlds by showing up.

Here's to the women on whose shoulders we have stood, and to those who get to stand on ours.

Here's to honoring those who have passed.

Here's to those who have left imprints on our lives in ways that we do not even know.

Here's to blazing our own trails.

Here's to creating hope for a world free from bias and discrimination - one action at a time.

Here’s to strong women.

We KNOW them!

We ARE them!

We ARE raising them!

Tag the women in your life who come to mind as you read this.
