The Girl Effect
Women empowerment is so crucial to our world. For all the ladies out there, can you imagine losing your choice to decide your future.. to receive an education… or to start a family?We sure can’t, and we don’t wish it upon any girl.
Whether you’re in your own household, or halfway across the world, each girl matters. Let’s do our part in empowering the women in our lives.
Stand Up | You are not who society believes you to be…
I thought this was a good follow up to Kristen’s post this morning. Here’s an example of what society thinks of you, and what you know to be true. Stay true to your heart and stand up for yourself.
