Today is International Women's Day, a day to celebrate the social, economic, cultural and political achievements of women.
I am surrounded by so many strong, fierce women. I have some amazing grandmas and aunties, and cousins and girlfriends and my mom is the best! This summer she threw me a surprise tea party instead of a bridal shower and in her speech she said we were so lucky to have all these incredible women in our lives and it was so true! We should all give the women in our lives extra big hugs and kisses today and celebrate the accomplishments and sacrifices that have made it possible for us to succeed and pursue our dreams.
I love Pinterest for all the inspiring quotes. Here are a few quotes by women I found that I thought would be good for today:
I think every woman needs to read Sheryl Sandberg's book, Lean In: Women, Work, and the Will to Lead. One of my girlfriends recommended it to me, and I found it very inspiring!
Now, excuse me while I go shut off the lights and have a dance party in my kitchen to Beyonce's song - Who Run's the World - GIRLS!
