There is so much power in marching and protesting. And hail to all the women and people still protesting for women's rights. I've had alot of conversations with friends and colleagues over the past few months particularly, questioning the value and purpose of protests. I've engaged in countless protests in my years, for women's rights in particular abortion rights; against violence against women; for Indigenous rights and reconciliation; for refugees and asylum seekers; for Palestine even back when it wasn't being decimated; against the wars in Darfur, Sudan, Iraq, Afghanistan, Syria and Ukraine; for LGBTIQ+ rights and marriage equality; for racial equality; against Islamophobia; and many more. Here's what I think about protests: 1. Protesting is a fundamental human right. And exercising that right should be promoted, protected, celebrated. 2. It is loud. It disrupts. And as it should. Change only comes from challenging the status quo and shaking is out of the comfort of everyday life. 3. It questions authority, power, and control - who has control, over whom, and for what purpose and end. 4. It keeps an issue on the agenda, it keeps people talking, it keeps it in sight and not out of mind. 5. It gives a sense of control in a world where the average person can feel helpless about what to do to impact social change. 6. It is solidarity in action. One voice, one protester may be ignored. But when it is in the millions, it can show those oppressed that they are not alone, that there are millions of people thinking about them, and lending their voice, and feet, to call for action. And it can show the oppressor/s that they do not represent. 7. And in a year where there are the most elections occurring globally, protests and protesting will count more than ever. Hail to all the feminists protesting. Hail to the women demanding equal rights, the right to abortions, and an end to violence against women. Hail to all the people protesting the wars in Gaza, Ukraine, Syria, Yemen, Sudan, DRC. Often the same people because there is no peace without women. #womensrightsarehumanrights #CeasefireNowInGaza #ceasefirenow #freepalestine #keepeyesonsudan #iwd2024 Human Rights Watch Amnesty International NGO Committee on the Status of Women (NGO CSW/NY) FEMNET - African Women's Development and Communication Network Centre for Feminist Foreign Policy Global Network of Women Peacebuilders (GNWP) IfNotNow

On this International Women's Day, let us weave a tapestry of gratitude and celebration for the remarkable women who not only shatter glass ceilings but also lift each other higher. In a world often marred by division, these women embody the transformative force of solidarity, recognizing that true empowerment is not an isolated achievement but a collective triumph. Their resilience is a beacon, guiding us through the intricacies of progress, reminding us that the strength of womankind lies not only in individual strides but in the synchronized rhythm of united steps. Let us extend heartfelt appreciation to the women who understand the alchemy of support, the ones who turn competition into collaboration, and who, through their shared wisdom, forge a path towards a future where empowerment is synonymous with unity.

Each year for Women of Influence, we pick a word or phrase and we ground our work in that theme. For 2024, our theme is "All of us." Because the work of eliminating racism and empowering women truly takes all of us. #onamission https://lnkd.in/gi_Gr7rX

Thought Partner for Entrepreneurs and Professionals seeking clarity so that they can thrive. On the flip side, helping employers create more inclusive workplaces. Let's book a virtual chat!
RARE in-person speaking event coming up! About 15 years ago, a woman I worked with made compelling arguments about why attending International Women's Day (IWD) events was so important; which is a story for another day... Since then I've made a point of being present for at least one IWD each year. This year, I'm honoured to be one of the speakers at the Town of Gananoque's "Empowering Women in a DigitALL Age" IWD event. I'll be sharing success stories of women entrepreneurs who live and work in Canada. Because when you experience stories of people you can relate to, then you can imagine navigating your own path to success. The vast majority of my speaking gigs are delivered online, and limited to specific groups of people. While I rarely speak in public, I thoroughly enjoy the experience! Especially when people ask questions. I'm looking forward to returning to the beautiful and welcoming town of Gananoque, to share some of what I know, while learning from the fabulous speakers and guests. The Eventbrite link for this free 3.5 hour event will be in the comments! ------------------- A bit about me - I share tactics and strategies employers may choose to implement to create more IDEAL jobs. On the flip side, I love helping you create and discover your ideal jobs, by teaching strategies and tactics that you can use over, and over, and over, again. I invite you to start a Thought Partner chat, follow the link in my profile to book a virtual 30 minute chat or send me a direct message here. #ShareLearnThrive – when we share what we know, and learn from each other, we can all find ways to thrive.
Join the Town of Gananoque and the 1000 Islands Chamber of Commerce on Friday, March 8th from 9am - 12:30pm to support these amazing Women at our International Women's Day Event - "Empowering Women in a DigitALL Age. We're celebrating women from all walks of Life. 💜 MC Amber Scott - Chamber President and Small Business Owner Chantal Fraser - President and Founder of Empowered Inc.

What a motivating group of gamers, founders, designers, builders, acrobats (!!), leaders, and out-of-box thinkers. This was my first #wonderwomendinner, and I had typical networking jitters when I walk into this house full of new faces. But by the time the night wrapped up, I was excited about the electric connections being made in the room and ready for more. #lovewhatyoudo #entrepreneurship
Thank you Madelyn Sheldon for opening up your home and hosting #WonderWomenDinner #Seattle with a full house of amazing women.

👷♀️Women in Construction Week👷♀️celebrates the contributions and achievements of women in the construction industry, highlighting their vital roles in shaping infrastructure and communities. 𝗛𝗜𝗦𝗧𝗢𝗥𝗬: The history of Women in Construction Week is intertwined with the origins of the National Association of Women in Construction (NAWIC).

Evolving into NAWIC, the association now boasts 115 chapters nationwide, offering education, support, and networking opportunities for women in construction. Women in Construction Week, established in 1960, celebrates the contributions of women in the field and promotes awareness and inclusivity. NAWIC's efforts have helped reduce stigma, narrow the gender pay gap, and foster international connections with countries sharing similar goals of empowering women in construction. #womeninengineering #womeninconstruction #geotechnicalengineering
