Through this short message, I hope to inspire you to value the women around you. It saddens me to hear people say, “It’s not easy working with women” or “A female-dominated environment is so challenging.” Let’s break the taboo! It is up to us to make a change.
Often, among women, we compare ourselves, we diminish our own worth, and we rally against each other. We may even criticize a colleague, a family member, or a friend.
Behind these criticisms and judgments, there is a woman who doesn’t appreciate herself at her true value. In such cases, it becomes difficult to value others.
It’s important to remember that it takes seven affirmations to counteract one criticism. So, on this Women’s Day, I invite you to honor the women around you, to acknowledge them for their beauty, their entirety, and their uniqueness. I wish you to emerge from this day feeling proud!
Happy Women’s Day!
