Last night when I checked my email before bed – not a normal thing for me – I was honored to find an invitation to partner with SheKnows Media and PRI (Public Radio International) in the #WomensLives Initiative. As a woman I have strong feelings and opinions about many issues that relate to women. Being the mother of two daughters I have strong feelings and opinions about how and what we teach our daughters along with what society teaches. Turns out there are a bunch of women who would like to voice these feelings and opinions and keep an open discussion going about women’s issues. I’m excited to be a part of this partnership and conversation. I’ll be sharing the stories, opinions, and experiences of other women taking this groundbreaking initiative, as well as writing some of my own.
We are all here for different reasons, with unique ideas, opinions and stories. We have one commonality – we are women. We live the exclusive life of a woman. We are single, married, childless or the mom to one or many children. We are mothers, daughters, grandmothers, granddaughters, nieces, aunts, friends, sisters, and wives. I am excited to see where this journey leads and to see who comes into my path through it.

The amazing group of women that are part of this project is humbling and exciting to me! So glad we’re on this journey together! Great post.
My feelings too Jennifer!
Congratulations, Linda! Look forward to hearing from you.
Thanks Trenna – you would be good at something like this. Do you want to start a blog?
That one commonality is HUGE!
Exactly! Women are everywhere!
Hear, hear! I loved that phrase, Linda. Wonderful to meet you and thank you for contributing your voice and unique perspective to #womenslives.
