Today is International Women’s Day, a day to celebrate all women everywhere. As a woman-owned store, I’ll always be grateful to the amazing women who came before me and fought for my right to pursue my dreams. It wasn’t all that long ago that women weren’t allowed to have their own bank accounts, let alone their own business.
This is one of my favorite poetry collections of all time. She’ll Be the Sky: Poems By Women and Girls @ellarisbridger @halber.mensch
Proud to be a woman today and every day!
“The new dawn blooms as we free it
For there is always light,
If only we’re brave enough to see it,
If only we’re brave enough to be it.”
- Amanda Gorman

I’m especially in love with The Night Market by @seinawedlick and @mukodiri 💙
