WE are ALL Movers and Makers*, each and every one of us. We move the needle on the daily, and sometimes we even move mountains. We make dinner and we make a living but, more importantly, we are moved to make communities.
So, what kind of communities will we choose to make? Will we move forward together, following the music in our souls, or will we sink down into despair, alone? (more…)
When game-changing women band together, they’re practically unstoppable. Nothing can cancel women lifting one another up. After months of prep and planning, re-adjusting and re-planning, reviewing loads of incredible entries, and testing out all the affiliated gear, the wait is finally over. We are proud to announce the nine finalists for our third annual T9 Movers and Makers Pitchfest. (more…)
Sometimes the pockets on women’s clothing really suck.
But the truth is, we have it a lot better than our sisters before us. NONE of their dresses had pockets, and what pockets they had were hard-to-access pouches tied on underneath their skirts. They moved to carrying purses because that was actually EASIER. (Yikes.) (more…)

So, it makes sense that at Title Nine – where we’re all about empowering women to do more, and move more – we demand pockets.
We’ve been at this game for over thirty years now, and from handwarmer to stash, to envelope, cargo, and zippered, we thought we’d done them all. It turns out that we were just getting started. (more…)
