Happy International Women’s Day

My whole life, I have had to defend the female-led groups I’ve been a part of- I can’t begin to count how many times I’ve heard pageant women aren’t smart, cheerleaders aren’t athletes, sorority members buy their friends. The amazing organizations, teams, and sisterhoods I’ve been involved in have made me who I am today- A teacher, a coach, a leader, a volunteer, a strong woman who isn’t afraid to be herself. So here’s to the powerful and inspiring women I’ve met along the way. Pageant women, you are INSANELY INTELLIGENT. Cheerleaders, you are FIERCE ATHLETES. Sorority sisters, you are my GENUINE FAMILY. Happy #internationalwomensday to the impactful women I’m so lucky to have in my life.
