Happy International Women's Day!

Every year on March 8th, people all around the world celebrate International Women’s Day!

It also happens to be Women’s History Month so for the whole month we can collectively make an effort to celebrate wonderful women who have made a change throughout history. 

Women’s History Month started in 1978 in California when a school district decided to hold a weeklong celebration for wonderful women! From there, it has turned into a whole month of joy and praise for women.

This month, just like every other month, I will be spreading my love and admiration for other women by standing up for women’s rights and gender equality in my professional and personal life. 

What are you on a mission to…?

Some ways I plan to do this are:

  • Believing in myself

  • Supporting my fellow females

  • Hanging out with friends 

  • Practicing self-care

  • Spreading love 

  • Creating content that empowers women

  • Backing female-run businesses 

  • And above all, being kind! 

Happy International Women’s Day, beautiful souls! 

What does this day mean to you?
