I love this day and what it represents. To me it’s about supporting women and girls across the world today and every day. It’s about women uplifting women and about girls supporting girls.

If something doesn’t serve you or make you happy anymore it’s time to move on. Create your happiness. Start the first chapter of whatever that new story for you will be. Think it, believe it and then real life it. The hard part is doing it or, speaking up and out. This was…
