For me, Women's History Month is about embracing all aspects of being a woman. It's about being able to authentically be you in every sense of who you are To be a woman in today's world is such a multi-dimensional idea we are able to embrace every piece of who we are as women, whether that be as Mothers, Workers, Innovators, Leaders, Movers or Changers; Everything we do as women is and always will be seen differently, so embrace the different and be authentically you!
