Building a business is one thing, but building with purpose is everything. After attending the Feminist Business Summit by The Canadian Women's Foundation, I’m more inspired than ever to align my work with values that resonate deeply. Purpose-driven businesses aren’t just about what we do—they’re about why we do it. Creating meaningful impact requires intention, whether that means fostering genuine connections, supporting communities, or prioritizing sustainable practices. Here’s to building with purpose and shaping a future we’re proud to be part of. 🌱 How do you bring purpose into your work? Let’s connect and learn from each other’s journeys! #PurposeDrivenBusiness #FeministBusiness #SustainableSuccess #WomenInBusiness #DesignForImpact #CommunityDesign

Disability poverty is a feminist issue and disabled women and gender-diverse people who are Black, Indigenous, racialized, single, and/or newcomers live in the deepest poverty. The proposed Canada Disability Benefit (CDB) offers too little, for too few, leaving far too many behind. And it ignores the deep structural inequalities disabled people face.
