The women who inspire us!
“If there’s one thing I’ve learned in life, it’s the power of using your voice.” ~ Michelle Obama
“I really think a champion is defined not by their wins but by how they can recover when they fall.” ~ Serena Williams
“I’ve learned that people will forget what you said, people will forget what you did, but people will never forget how you made them feel.” ~Maya Angelou
“I have learned over the years that when one’s mind is made up, this diminishes fear; knowing what must be done does away with fear.” ~Rosa Parks
“The reason I made women’s issues central to American foreign policy was not because I was a feminist, but because we know that societies are more stable if women are politically and economically empowered.” ~Madeleine Albright
“We’re always going to argue about abortion. It’s a hard choice and it’s controversial, and that’s why I’m pro-choice, because I want people to make their own choices.” ~Hillary Clinton
“Women may be the one group that grows more radical with age.” ~Gloria Steinem
“I raise up my voice- not so I can shout, but so that those without a voice can be heard…we cannot succeed when half of us are held back.” ~Malala Yousafzai
While America is full of influential women today, hundreds of women came before them, paving the way. Women’s History Month serves as a way to not only remember them but keep carrying their torch onward. There’s still work to do. International Women’s Day is March 8, and celebrates the achievements of women around the globe from the past to present day.

“Sometimes you have to not just dream about what could be—you get out and push, and you pull, and you preach. And you create a climate and environment to get those in high places, to get men and women of goodwill in power to act.“ — John Lewis
