Oh boy! I almost missed Women's History Month. But it's not too late. Technically, it doesn't end until midnight tonight, March 31st.

Welcoming 2019 with Words
In 2015 I joined the My One Word movement. This movement is an opportunity to choose one word that best determines how you would like your life to grow in the coming year.

Women’s History Month
There are countless people who deserve recognition, but since March is women's history month in the United States, the United Kingdom, and Australia, I've decided to spotlight one historical woman each week that has made a difference in my life in one way or another.
