Today is International Women’s Day and I am joined by my daughter Jadyn.
This day is a reminder of how incredibly fortunate we are, to live in a country where we are free to be our weird quirky selves and to follow our dreams. I know there are still many imperfections in our culture, but today I choose to celebrate and be grateful. Thank you to my daughter Jadyn who knows no prejudice and understands respect for all. Thank you to every woman who has supported me, celebrated my wins along the way and has been there for me in my darkest messy times and continued to love me through it all. Jadyn shares: Thank you to every person in the world who is willing to be a voice for change, knowing that every man, woman and child have value and rights…just because. Is there a woman in your life you could thank today? Someone you could reach out to who is struggling and let them know they are not alone? Could you make a difference?

Once again, such a wonderful post! I am grateful for the time that I get to spend with my wonderful Mother in law. Just spent the afternoon with her in the nursing home. She suffers from dementia but we still have fun together. I know these good times wont last but I treasure our time together! Have a great day, Yvonne!

Such a beautiful message, especially from Jadyn - such a mature head on young shoulders. The change begins with us; we get to take the first step, to stand up, to step into our power and to claim our rights. Be the change. #BeBoldForChange #IWD2017 xoxo

Thank you, Michelle. The change begins with us, and children can and should be a part of that change. If we guide them in the direction of empowerment, inclusion and rights for all... they will become the adults who won't settle for anything less! :)
