Forward Together

Friends-

As we take in the results of the 2024 presidential election, this we know for sure: Our voices, WOMEN’S VOICES, are more critical now than ever. 

For some of us, this election cycle brings a sense of HOPE or renewal.
And for others, it may bring disappointment, uncertainty. And quite honestly, there are many, many folks, who are just glad that all the hooplah is over.

While this election—like every one before it—may help define the work ahead of us, it does not DEFINE us, as women or as a nation.

After all, our strengths do not come from the seats of political power but from our communities, our connections, and our commitments.

So…let’s take a moment to CELEBRATE all the big and small work that each of us has done.

Then let’s keep working to ensure that all women’s JOYFUL, intelligent, insistent, committed, CARING voices continue to be heard and HEEDED across this great country of ours.

But first … let’s get outside and get our WORKOUT in!!

Forward together,

The Rise of Difficult Women

title ix the rise of difficult women

That’s us. Difficult and proud to be.

Since the passage of Title IX legislation in 1972, we’ve blazed trails, rooted our cleats in the clay, and anchored ourselves on the mountaintop.

Over the past 50 years, stats show women’s participation in sport has increased by more than 1000% at the high school level and more than 600% at the college level. (more…)

Mother’s Day 2021: Every Friday is a Victory

Every Friday is a Victory

This year of COVID has tested moms of every stripe in ways that we could not have imagined. If we are full-time moms, full-time has meant “non stop.” If we work outside the home, it has also meant “non-stop.” COVID has, at times, required more than we can give and often a marital re negotiation of shared responsibilities. The social and familial bonds that we carefully tend have been stretched and even (temporarily) broken. (more…)
