IWD ❤️🔥
Something struck me this week while I was chatting with a student whom I regard as professionally accomplished, open-hearted, adventurous, and someone who adds value to every room she walks into. Yet, like so many ~ if not all ~women, she doesn’t see her own unique brilliance. What’s an even greater travesty is not realising the value of that brilliance.
Maybe this is conditioning, or maybe it’s part of the feminine makeup, but it’s one of the greatest disservices women do to themselves. In doing so, we withhold our potential and live our lives not fully recognising the difference we make.
This is where sisterhood comes into its own. We can all see the wonder in other women, be it their creative abilities, grace, business acumen, innate wisdom, resilience, or spot-on mothering instincts, and it’s our duty to celebrate this. We should be celebrating one another every day, not just on International Women’s Day. Tell your friends, mothers, daughters, siblings, coworkers, or even the stranger in the street who looks beautiful. Call out their brilliance and remind them how it makes the world a better place.
To the wonderful women in my life, I champion and celebrate you all ~ for the guidance, laughter, inspiration, kindness, and fond memories you bring into my world.
All my love
