Yesterday, we celebrated Veterans Day and acknowledged the men and women who fought and the many who made the ultimate sacrifice. Today, I want to honor the women who have dealt with their own battles. That same spirit of courage we honored yesterday also lives within each of us—and today, I want to speak to that inner strength.
This moment also invites something deeper than remembrance. It calls each of us to reflect on our own inner courage. Many of us carry invisible battles from the past—stories of pain, loss, or disappointment that still echo in the present. Today reminds us that peace is not only a historical or military event; it’s an inner choice. It’s the moment we decide to stop fighting ourselves and begin to heal.
For the women I work with, especially those entering the third stage of life, this day becomes a powerful metaphor. November 11 symbolizes transition: from what has been to what can be. It’s never too late to honor your own service—the years you’ve given to family, work, and others—and to begin serving yourself with compassion.
So today, as we honor those who have stood for freedom, may we also pause to honor our own inner veterans—the parts of us that have fought to survive, adapt, and keep going. Let this November 11th be a moment of grace, a breath of gratitude, and a quiet recommitment to live from the inside out—with courage, peace, and purpose.
