There’s no excuse for violence against women and girls. Never. At the start of these #16Days of Activism, I renew our commitment to tackle the roots of gender-based violence. Gender-based violence is not just a women's issue – it is a societal problem we must tackle together.
It is well-known that socializing is important for our well-being. Loved meeting up with two friends I’ve known for years - who also happen to be amazing female leaders and moms today - to catch up on all things high and low.
The longer you hold on to things, the heavier they become. Learn to let go. Forgive first.
